The teams are playing one of matches of the lower bracket. It means that it will be the last meeting at IEM Chicago 2018 for one of the teams.

Now AVANGAR are placed on the 15 place in the list of the best CS:GO teams according to HLTV. They managed to win only twice out of five held matches. Before IEM Chicago, the Kazakh had played at EPICENTER, where they won over HellRaisers and NiP by the score of 2-0 and 2-1 correspondingly. Playing against Liquid and Natus Vincere, they lost 0-2.

Meanwhile, Luminosity Gaming took the 37 place in the world rating. Before the start of IEM Chicago, the Brazilians had taken part only in matches held as parts of ECS 6 and EPL 8 leagues. There they have recently won over EnVyUs only. At other Bo2 meetings against Renegades and Bravado Gaming, they weren't able to oppose them and lost.

At IEM Chicago, AVANGAR couldn't beat mousesports, losing 5-16 against the opponents, and Luminosity Gaming couldn't win over Liquid, taking only 11 rounds.

Paying attention to the play shape of the collectives, we think that the teams are pretty equal, so it means that in this case it is better to make a bet on LG, as the coefficient of their win is evaluated as 2,25. Luminosity is an outsider of the match so we can offer a good alternative which is a handicap +2,5. This meeting will be held in the Bo-3 format and we think that the Brazilians can take at least one map.We don't recommend you to make a bet of more than 5% from the whole sum of your bank.
