OK, so Astralis was 2nd in Group A with three played matches, two wins, and one loss. Their round difference was +20, and they had six points. NiP was 1st in Group B with two games played, and two wins. Their round difference was +25, and they had six points. We saw something strange when Astralis was not first in Group A, but MIRB played very good so congrats to them, they will play against North who look very shaky after the group stage and a -7 round difference.

My bet here will go to team NiP +1,5 handicap.

Good luck to all who bet, and don't forget to gamble responsibly!
