ESB’s free esports betting predictions for Friday focus on three Dota2 matches at EPIC League Division 1, the continuation of the BLAST Premier Fall 2020 Showdown and the last quarter-final at the Cyber.Bet Golden League between SJ Gaming and SKADE.

EPIC League Division 1

VIKIN.GG vs JUST ERROR DOTA 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Dota 2 Betting Odds: Vikin.gg -222.22 at BetOnline | Error +163 at BetOnline
When: November 27, 2020 at 14:00 CET

Just Error enter the second stage of the EPIC League group stage with a poor 1-6 record and a 5-10 map differential, which puts them in a very rough spot approaching the playoffs. The only team Syed Sumail “SumaiL” Hassan and co. have managed to defeat thus far is Team Liquid (2-0), but since Liquid are not in a great shape either (1-4), it’s hard to be overly excited about that result.

Vikin.gg are the polar opposite. In the past three weeks, they have beaten OG, mudgolems, Team Liquid, Live to Win and even Team Secret. The only team they failed to defeat in that run was Alliance (0-2), but they did not field a complete roster in that clash, so it’s not fair to criticise them too much for it.

Even though Just Error field a very strong roster, they’re in terrible form. Viking.gg should take this one with ease.

TEAM LIQUID vs VIRTUS.PRO DOTA 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Dota 2 Betting Odds: Liquid +175 at BetOnline | VP -250 at BetOnline
When: November 27, 2020 at 17:00 CET
Watch Live: Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/team/epicenter)

Team Liquid have struggled so far this tournament, but we can’t agree with the esports bookmakers pricing them so high. Liquid have won at least one map in four out of five games and looked quite decent in their 2-0 win over Alliance on Sunday.

Even though Virtus.pro look stronger, they have won only two out of seven meetings with Liquid this year. While VP’s roster has changed drastically, the playstyle of the two teams has stayed mostly the same, so the balance of power should remain similar as well.

We are not confident that Liquid can win in their current form, but they should continue the trend and force a three-map series.

TEAM NIGMA vs NATUS VINCERE DOTA2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Dota 2 Betting Odds: Nigma -107.53 at BetOnline | NaVi -123.46 at BetOnline
When: November 27, 2020 at 20:00 CET
Watch Live: Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/team/epicenter)

Team Nigma enter this week’s matches with a 3-2 record which includes losses against mudgolems and Virtus.pro but also victories against OG, Alliance and Just Error. NaVi, meanwhile, are 3-1 with one loss against OG and wins against Team Liquid, Just Error and Alliance.

Not only are Nigma notoriously inconsistent, but both sides have produced similar results, which makes it hard to predict how this game will go. NaVi might be slightly favourited, but we are not convinced they can manage a clean sweep.

BLAST Premier Fall 2020 Showdown

FURIA vs VIRTUS.PRO CS:GO BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

CS:GO Betting Odds: FURIA +100 at BetOnline | VP -138.89 at BetOnline
When: November 27, 2020 at 16:30 CET
Watch Live: Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/blastpremier)

FURIA did not impress us with their performance against Isurus on Tuesday, even though they ended up winning the series. Virtus.pro, on the other side, played out their game against Team Spirit on Sunday the way we predicted, but that does not necessarily mean we view them as the stronger team.

Despite FURIA’s slip up against Isurus, they’re still the reigning IEM New York champions and should be equally as capable of winning this match as Virtus.pro. Since this is a complete coin-flip, we will play the odds and go for the outsiders.

FURIA to win

Cyber.Bet Golden League

SJ GAMING vs SKADE CS:GO BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

CS:GO Betting Odds: SJ +245 at BetOnline | SKADE -370.37 at BetOnline
When: November 27, 2020 at 11:50 CET
Watch Live: Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/ucc_csgo_en)

SJ Gaming and SKADE met during the Cyber.Bet Golden League group stage at the end of October when Teodor “SPELLAN” Nikolov and co. reverse-swept the Finnish squad, to which they added a 2-0 sweep last week. SKADE have put together a 4-2 run since then, whereas SJ have played only two games, losing to MBAPPEEK (1-2) and beating AGF (2-0).

Even though SJ stole one map off SKADE in October, we have to place more value on the result from their most recent match. SJ also struggled against a semi-pro team in MBAPPEEK, so we can’t trust them to keep this match close.
