Now we’ll see the better teams of Group B go head to head in Bad News Eagles vs Movistar Riders, and if you’re into CSGO betting, you’ll want to read this preview.
Bad News Eagles
Fresh off their successful qualification to the BLAST.tv Paris Major, the Eagles have already beaten local hopefuls VERTEX comprehensively earlier in the day. Playing on Vertigo, they managed to pick up a strong 10 rounds on the T-side of the generally CT-sided map before shutting down what was a decent attempt at a comeback from the Aussies for a 16-10 win. Going up against their fellow Europeans might not be as easy, though.

Movistar Riders
The Spanish side has seen better days, but there’s no doubt that its star is on the rise once more. They bested Chinese giants Rare Atom in their own opening match, edging out the opposition 19-16 in Overtime on Anubis following uncharacteristically even halves for the T-sided map.
