Last Weeks Highlights 🏆

• Manchester City took all three points from Liverpool after coming back from a goal down with 15 minutes to go. Goalscorer Dominik Szoboszlai was later sent off after pulling Erling Haaland’s shirt as the ball was going into an empty net.
• Vitality smashed FURIA in the IEM Krakow finals, with star player ZywOo dropping a whopping 1.66 rating over four maps. Veteran apEX has now overtaken ex-teammate dupreeh for the highest prize winnings in Counter-Strike history.
• Manchester United’s late efforts weren’t enough to make it five wins in a row, and they had to settle for a draw, leaving the United strand without his haircut.
• Los Ratones fell out of playoff contention on the final day after losing to Vitality. Despite holding a strong lead, Vitality swung the momentum in their favour after catching bot laner Crownie out of position. The other LEC results placed Los Ratones in ninth place, one spot outside the playoffs.

Upcoming Esports 🕹️

• Gen.G have chosen Dplus KIA as their opponents for the upper bracket semi-finals after their poor performance in scraping past DRX.
• MOUZ begin their PGL Cluj-Napoca campaign against PARIVISION, who are no slouches.
• Vitality, hot off their IEM Krakow win take on G2 in their opening match. It's looking like there are no easy games in Cluj-Napoca.
• T1 face dark horses BNK FearX, while Gen.G prepare for their upper bracket semi-final against Dplus KIA.

Upcoming Sports ⚽

• Inter will be looking to extend their lead at the top of Serie A to 11 points when they take on fourth-placed Juventus.
• Juventus face another huge test as they travel to Galatasaray in the Champions League.
• Benfica will look to repeat their victory over Real Madrid from the final group stage matchday as they meet again in the Round of 32 of the Champions League.
• Can Bodø/Glimt continue their Champions League upsets as they take on Serie A leaders Inter midweek?

Bet of the Week 📝

• Aurora picked up some strong wins at IEM Krakow over the likes of MOUZ and Falcons. Although FUT managed a similar upset against FURIA, we believe that was more of a one-off.
• PSG visit fellow Ligue 1 side AS Monaco in the Champions League. Considering Monaco’s domestic form with them currently sitting in 10th place, we think this one only goes one way.
• Vitality are coming off a huge win at IEM Krakow, and we don’t expect them to take their foot off the gas heading into their matchup with G2.
• Na’Vi have looked red hot in the LEC this year. In contrast, Fnatic appear to be struggling, showing no real sense of direction.
