• Valerij “b1t” Vakhovsjkyj
• Justinas “jL” Lekavičius

Team Spirit vs NaVi betting picks & predictions

Core picks

• Team Spirit wins 2-0 (2.31)
  • The last two matches between these teams ended in a 2-0 win for Spirit, so a 2.31 line on that seems like a solid proposition
• Team Spirit wins quickly
  • When NaVi loses, it tends to lose fairly quickly, making something like NaVi wins under 7.5 rounds on map one a solid value at 3.12
