Head to head: Fnatic 57-47 Astralis

After device got back things are not the too good for Astralis, this is not the same Astralis we used to watch.

The best player of Astalis, the key player Device was out of too long, he is not in a good form and they are struggling through this major. They lost 16-2 to mousesports and almost lost to North too, but they somehow managed to come back in the match, halftime result was 11-4 for North, Astralis was doing everything but great, after that, with a little lack and economy resets they managed to win 16-14. I don't think they can do that to Fnatic. Fnatic is one of the oldest teams here (I am not talking about rosters but the team itself), they are very experienced and they should be able to win against Astralis in this form. Fnatic is doing a great job lately, out of last 10 matches, they won every single one except the ones against Faze. Last time Fnatic and Astralis played head to head, Fnatic won, Astralis was without device but one player can't change too much especially if that player just came back after a long time being idle.

My tip here is high bet on Fnatic. 8/10. GL & HF
