And looking at the recent matches, i must admit that GY played A LOT of games, and they also won a lot of games, so yeah, they look like a more favorable team in this matchup. This tournament started a long time ago, and a lot of matches have already been played, let's analyze them:

AGO played their first match against their today's opponents Gambit Youngsters and won 2-1 (8-16 on Dust2, 16-5 on Mirage, and 16-11 on Train), then they faced Nemiga and barely won 2-0 (16-12 on Mirage, and 16-13 on Nuke). After that, they played against CPHF and lost quite convincingly 0-2 (3-16 on Nuke, and 8-16 on Mirage), which was quite devastating for them.

On the other side, we have GY who lost their first match against AGO 1-2 (16-8 on D2, 5-16 on Mrg, and 11-16 on Train), then they managed somehow to put themselves together and win against Hard Legion 2-0 (19-15 on Train, and 16-7 on Dust2), then they won against Bulgarian team FATE 2-1 (16-6 on Dust2, 13-16 on Train, and 16-8 on Overpass), and finally, they won against Nemiga 2-0 (16-12 on Vertigo and 16-10 on Dust2).

This is the consolidation final, where the winner will clash against Copenhagen Flames for that 1st place $6,750, 2nd $3,750, 3rd $2,700.

I will go with Gambit Youngsters to win here with a BIG bet. Good luck to all who bet, and may the odds be forever in your favor!
