Wayfarers Prediction - X3
Now we are closing the game day again, only this time in the European region. Today, as part of the group stage of Dota 2 Champions League Season 15, there will be a meeting between Wayfarers and X3. Previously, the teams did not hold face-to-face meetings, and today they will have to determine the strongest in the bo3 format.
Form Wayfarers
At the moment of the tournament, the team is confidently on the first line of the group rating with the title of favorite. The team played their first match against No Bounty Hunter, and despite the difficulties, they managed to earn a victory. The first map lasting 44 minutes ended with the victory of the Wayfarers, on the second map the NBH players fought back and won in 39 minutes, the last map again passed under the control of the Wayfarers and ended in 38 minutes. In the second match, weaker YNGBLDs were waiting for them, and the result was logical. However, the victory was given to the team with difficulty, two maps stretched for 54 and 63 minutes.

Match prediction
We are expecting an interesting match between the two favorites. Despite the fact that no one expected both teams to top the table, they confidently break stereotypes, and so far they are the main contenders for getting into the playoffs. Nevertheless, in this match, I will give preference to X3, the team is a bit more experienced than the rivals, and according to the results of the last matches, they have solid victories.
Outcome: victory X3
