Virtus.pro and Hard Legion are meeting in the Group B opening match of the WePlay! Clutch Island. These rivals have met on three occasions before, and Hard Legion leads the meetings with a 2-1 record. This match is scheduled as a best-of-three-map duel.
The Kazakhstani side Virtus.pro are coming into this encounter as firm favorites after winning five of the previous five matches.

The Russian team Hard Legion are not playing particularly well in the last few weeks as they lost four of the previous six matches but managed to beat AGF at the LOOT.BET Season 7 in the most recent match. Hard Legion have a 57.8% win rate over the previous three months, while they were producing the best displays on Train map (71.4% win rate).

Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (-110) @bet365
Hard Legion won both of the latest H2H duels played in 2020, and both tilts produced a maximum of three maps. I expect to see such a scenario in this one as well, and even though I am not sure which team is going to get a win, I am pretty sure we’re going to have a tight battle with a lot of rounds. That’s why I am going with over 2.5 maps for this one.
