SAW vs EF Prediction 27 April 2024

Eternal Fire were close to winning the match against FaZe, which would have allowed them to advance from the group in third place. However, now they are forced to fight for a spot in the playoffs through the Last Chance stage. In the upcoming match, the Turkish team will face the Portuguese from SAW, who are significantly inferior in terms of gameplay to their previous opponents.

Team descriptions and trends
SAW has been playing in their current lineup for over a year. At the beginning of the month, the team reached a record 16th place in the HLTV ranking of the best teams. The start of the tournament left much to be desired, first losing to 3DMAX (0-2), and then to Virtus.pro (0-2). Only after moving down to the Last Chance stage, did the guys manage to secure their first victory, surprisingly winning against Imperial with a score of 2-0.

• SAW wins with a handicap of +4.5 rounds on the first map (in bo3 series) in 5 consecutive matches against Eternal Fire. The odds for such an outcome are 1.47.
• SAW wins with a handicap of +4.5 rounds on the second map (in bo3 series) in 8 of the last 9 matches. You can bet on this with odds of 1.48

Eternal Fire continues to show a high level of gameplay and just like their opponents today, they are at their peak position in the HLTV ranking. During ESL Pro League, the Turkish team was unlucky with their first opponent. Astralis immediately sent Eternal Fire to the lower bracket, through which the team reached the final and only lost in the match with FaZe.

Editorial prediction
Eternal Fire, unlike SAW, have retained their efficiency and even in their current form can beat many top teams in the world. The situation is reversed for the Portuguese team, and at this moment, the team's affairs are far worse than before. Between the two teams, Eternal Fire definitely deserves to advance to the next stage more, so we make our choice in favor of the Turkish collective. You can bet on Eternal Fire's victory with odds of 1.5.

Additionally, you can pay attention to the following trend:

• SAW wins the 1st map in 4 consecutive matches with Eternal Fire. A win on the first map from SAW is valued at 2.31.
