?Despite winning ESL One Stockholm Dota 2 Major and their opening series of the tour, OG enters this match as +100 underdogs. But perhaps that isn’t too shocking, considering they are set to face Tundra Esports, one of the hottest European Dota 2 esports teams.
OG and Tundra Esports have met 14 times since January 2021, each winning seven series. Moreover, each squad picked up three series and six maps apiece from the six meetings this season, so head-to-head results-wise, OG and Tundra are equal.
Even the eye test would confirm that there is little to nothing to separate the two teams, so it’s tough to understand why Tundra are priced as the favourites. You can argue that Tundra have a higher ceiling, but that doesn’t explain their price.
OG would be the right call at plus money, but since we expect another close affair between two European Dota 2 juggernauts, over 2.5 maps makes the most sense.

| Best Odds: | Liquid -138.89 at BetOnline | Gladiators +100 at BetOnline |

Team Liquid lost against goonsquad on Saturday, which doesn’t look good on paper, but it’s not a particularly terrible result. Meanwhile, Gaimin Gladiators suffered a shock defeat against Entity last week, putting them in a very rough spot as they cannot afford to drop any more games.
Gaimin Gladiators and Liquid last met at ESL One Stockholm a month ago, when Liquid won 2-0. It marked their third head-to-head victory (3-2), and their second consecutive, following a 2-0 sweep at Gamers Without Borders at the start of May.
But even though Liquid hold Gaimin Gladiators’ number, we’re not sold on them at the offered betting odds. Liquid have not been playing well enough to earn the tag as -138.89 favourites and are in terrible shape – with five consecutive losses.
They might look stronger on paper, but until we see Liquid produce something meaningful, we will continue to fade them.
