G2 Esports vs. Heroic Betting Preview

G2 Esports are the favourites to win this match. They have won 8 consecutive matches and lead on 3 maps, while Heroic has also managed 4 victories in their last five games. However, we can't discount what looks like an unstoppable force that is G2 - if there's anything about them that tells me "perfect form," it would be these stats! Hence, we believe G2 will win but the opponent will snatch 1 map.

The Pick: G2 Esports to win/ Over 2.5 maps.
