Match prediction
After a couple of Lilgun - Neon, we are expecting a meeting of two more averages. Both teams generally show themselves well from the beginning of the tournament, but Army Geniuses is still better. The club currently has one win and one draw, which allowed them to gain a foothold on the 2nd line of the rating table, in turn, Execration has no victories, the team has one draw and one defeat, which ensured it 5th place in the overall ranking. I would venture to suggest the victory of Army Geniuses.
Outcome: Army Geniuses victory
