Team Vitality vs Heroic

Time and time again, Heroic have defied the CSGO odds at IEM Rio 2023. Proving the doubters wrong after placing 2nd at IEM Katowice 2023, no more doubts remain.

Especially after sweeping aside Natus Vincere in two rounds, the odds are in their favour and they are now the statistical favourites heading into this Grand Final.

However, they aren’t guaranteed a win by any means. On the other side of the Grand Final, Team Vitality were always one of the favourites heading into this event.

Despite this, they fell in their first match and have had to fight uphill since, taking down the likes of FaZe Clan who were favourites for this event.

Overall, both of these teams are hoping to add to their CSGO tournaments wins of 2022, while also trying to earn the seed for IEM Cologne 2023 available only for first place besides the majority of the prize pool.

Undoubtedly, this is a fantastic CSGO esports betting opportunity!
