Hellbear Smashers vs Chicken Fighters: History to repeat itself

On August 4, Hellbear Smashers and Chicken Fighters will play their first-ever Dota 2 Champions League Season 2 playoff game. Will Chicken Fighters surprise the favourites and knock them into the bottom net in the first match, or will Hellbear Smashers have no problem moving on?

Hellbear Smashers: So far, they have had it easy

Hellbear Smashers have taken the GeneraL to play this tournament on hard and the lads are doing very well. The team easily took first place with eight wins out of a possible nine. The only defeat for them came against Spider Pigzs with a 1-2 score, but this match was no longer decisive for Hellbear Smashers. In the group stage, the team played almost every hero in the world. In this tournament, the teams have already met each other and Hellbear Smashers was able to win quite confidently with a 2-0. I don’t think anything will change in the upcoming match.

Chicken Fighters: They are unstable

Chicken Fighters, unlike their opponent today, have made the playoffs with incredible difficulty. The team has five wins in nine games and any defeat could end their chances of qualifying for the Division 1 playoffs. Of course, the squad looks good. The guys are already very experienced and have played against the strongest teams in the world, but after sonneiko’s departure, the team has not reached the previous level. Now Chicken Fighters show one good game out of three or four matches. Against them, the Ace team looks much more stable and stronger.

History of head-to-head encounters

The teams managed to meet each other five times. Chicken Fighters were stronger three times.

Expert Betting Tips

Hellbear Smashers look favourites to win the match now. The team was much better in the group stage. They confidently dealt with today’s opponent in the head-to-head game, and I think they want to win more. And motivation is essential at the moment.

The bookmakers offer Hellbear Smashers a 2-0 win at odds of 2.45, which looks like a good option. You can also bet on Total Under 2.5 at 1.69.
