paiN Gaming and MIBR will meet in the semi-finals of the ESL Challenger League Season 45 North America top draw. Both teams need no introduction, although the former have performed much better in the competition.
In general, I would not seriously consider the chances of MIBR, as the team has become too average and in the current line-up has not developed much. Similar cannot be said about paiN Gaming, which in recent months has played a lot.
In general, although this is a derby, but MIBR has slightly less chance to shoot, and the opponent is clearly not weaker, if not two heads stronger. So here I would lean on the paiN Gaming team to win.

Prediction for the paiN Gaming - MIBR match
I would not look at twelve wins in a row from MIBR, as there were no opponents there. On the other hand, paiN Gaming a very long and cool performance in Europe, which gives an advantage on the dice.
Yes, and on the game MIBR is less The International yeresnoy because it does too default things. And if there is no Ancient here, it will be incredibly difficult for the team to win.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on a win for the paiN Gaming team.
