Tundra Esports vs Shopify Rebellion Prediction: Expect a Draw

Prediction for the match between Tundra Esports and Shopify Rebellion which will take place on September 18. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Tundra Esports

Topias Topson Taavitsainen has joined the lineup and will take the midfield position. Nine, on the other hand, will move to the four. Almost no one doubts that the two-time champion of The International can adequately replace Nine on the center line, but many expressed concerns about the German's play in the role of a backup. Nevertheless, the Tundra Esports lineup looks formidable. Especially if the team can adapt to the aggressive play of the new midfielder, the match against the Americans shouldn't be a big problem. The team will take their points for sure. If it weren't bo2, the Europeans would look like obvious favorites, but there is still a chance of a draw in bo2. Tundra Esports easily beat their opponents at essential tournaments and majors, but the teams often exchanged cards at commercial tournaments. At the Riyadh Masters 2023, the teams played to a draw, showing two crushing cards. We can expect something similar in the upcoming matchup. This is the last major tournament before The International, so it is unlikely that teams will play to the death here.

Shopify Rebellion

Shopify Rebellion has been showing weak play in recent months. The team failed at the Riyadh Masters 2023, finishing seventh in Group B. The Americans failed to win a single match at the tournament and did not qualify for the playoffs. The team has lost their last four games without winning a single card, with their previous win coming in early June at The Bali Major 2023. Shopify Rebellion has been unable to win for ten matches now. Neither can they win in their match against Tundra Esports. The Europeans have decided the last four face-to-face matches, and Shopify Rebellion has only managed to snag one draw. However, it should be considered that these negative results were almost two months ago, after which the team had time to rest and train, which may allow them to grab points. After all, Shopify Rebellion has drawn more often than lost in bo2 formats at recent tournaments.

Expert Betting Tips

Tundra Esports is the favorite of the upcoming match, but in the bo2 format, a draw looks more likely.
