Matchförutsägelse: Team Liquid - 9 Pandas | Dota 2
The Bali Major 2023Welcome to EGamersWorld!
We continue to watch the Dota festivities on an island paradise. The Bali Major 2023 continues and The International is coming up next.
Watch the final match of the third round of the lower net. Watch the two parts of Europe, West and East.
Team Liquid and 9Pandas will fight for the right to qualify for the top 4 of the tournament. Obviously, both teams are anxious to climb higher and finally win the tournament. Both teams were already close, but something was constantly missing.
In the case of Team Liquid, they were twice in the top 2 and well want to take the title. And it's a long way to go. They need to go through a few more rounds of the lower net, i.e. 3 rounds of play-offs.
9Pandas for their part would also like to reach the grand final. Last time they were one step away from getting there, but Ledge or the same Liquid.
No matter how you look at it, The International matchup is heresy. Let's go to see which team will prove to be more resilient and win the match.
Let's go.
Team Liquid's uniform.
We begin the breakdown of the match with an analysis of Team Liquid's form. In this matchup, the team will emerge as the favorite.
Bookmakers confirm the pre-match position of Team Liquid. The odds of them winning are around 1.6.
Perhaps 9Pandas is the most serious contender in the lower divisions. Hence the odds.
Liquid did not lose any matches at DPC 2023: WEU Division 1 Tour 1 and then took Top-2 at The Lima Major 2023 while playing with substitutes. More than worthy.
The second round of the DPC was as similar to the previous one as possible. Liquid again took the Top 1, but now with one defeat in the table. On the international stage, Liquid again shone, but were still overshadowed by Gaimin Gladiators, who took their second Major trophy of the season.
In the third season, Liquid were no longer able to clinch the premiership. "The Liquid fell to fourth place, but luckily this was enough to qualify for the Bali Major 2023, which makes no difference for Team Liquid that qualified for The International 2023.
- Liquid squad: miCKe, Nisha, zai, Boxi, Insania .
After the disappointing result in DreamLeague Season 20, where Team Liquid were eliminated from the first group stage, there was a feeling that the Bali Major 2023 will be held on liquid notes for the Liquid. However, Liquid decided to step up and play their best.
Team Liquid made it through the group stage with dignity, taking 1st place. The team did not lose a single series, but played with several draws. The Liquid's final score for the group is 4-4-0.
In the first match of the play-offs Liquid met PSG.LGD. The Chinese gave the European powerhouse a lot of trouble, but were unable to win. Liquid won 2-1.
Then something strange happened. Team Liquid lost to Tundra Esports in the second round of the top-seeded play-offs, and they lost 0-2.

Form 9Pandas
We continue with the analysis of the 9Pandas' form. In this match, the team will play number two.
Against Liquid, this is often the case. The odds for victory are in the region of 2.
A figure like that compliments the Pandas. It's not often you get to compete almost on equal terms with the second team in the world.
9 Pandas started the year with a third place in DPC 2023: EEU Division 1 Tour 1, but already in the first international tournament of the year, The Lima Major 2023, they managed to advance from the group while still under the HellRaisers banner, playing with stand-ins. \
In their second DPC season, 9Pandas finished in the Top 1, beating all their direct rivals, Team Spirit and BB Team. Furthermore, 9Pandas surprised everyone at The Berlin Major 2023. In Germany, the Pandas made it to the top 3, the best result for the region for the year.
The 9 Pandas finished their third DPC cycle with qualification for the last Major of the season, The Bali Major 2023, with a third-place home league exit there. Next up was DreamLeague S20.
- The squad of 9Pandas: RAMZES, kiyotaka, MieRo, Antares, Solo .
Throughout the year, the team has been gaining in results and this applies primarily to the international scene. If on the DL Season 20 the team was in the top 7, now 9 Pandas is already in the top 6 Bali Major 2023.
But it did not start well, after reaching the bottom of the play-offs. Already there the team first defeated Team Aster and then beastcoast.
The most popular 9Pandas characters
The most popular 9Pandas character is Skywrath Mage. He has appeared in Pandas games 6 times and has 3 wins.
He is followed by Bounty Hunter (4 matches, 50% wins), Tiny (3 matches, 66% wins), and Bloodseeker (3 matches, 33% wins). Also glimpsed in the pool are Chen and Doom (2 matches each, 100% wins), as well as Enchantress (2 matches, 50% wins).
History of head-to-head encounters
The teams have played each other twice. First in the group stage of the past The Berlin Major 2023, and then in the play-offs. The first time was a draw, in the second, Liquid eliminated 9 Pandas from the tournament.
The outcome of the match
In this match, I don't expect an easy walk from either side. If Liquid win, which seems more logical, certainly not by 2-0. I'll bet on +1.5 from 9Pandas.
Bottom line: +1.5 on 9Pandas.
Team Liquid is the 5th team in the world rankings. The boys have no problems at the DPC. They finish the first 2 rounds in 1st place. In the 3rd round they finished in 4th position only. But at bigger events they cannot get past Gaimin Gladiators. Both the Lima Major and the DreamLeague S19 are positioned right after them in 2nd place in the final table. The same way the Berlin Major ends. That's nothing new. But at Dreamleague S20 the team definitely surprised us. Finished in last place in the tournament.
9 Pandas - the 12th team in the world ranking. DPC CIS region in the first round finished in 3rd place, behind Spirit and BB. In the Lima Major guys hold a modest 9-12th place. They gather their strength and finish the second round of the DPC already in 1st place, without conceding anything. DreamLeague, however, does not get going at all and the organisation leaves the tournament in 13th-14th position. Berlin Major, on the other hand, is shaping up much more nicely. The team manages to reach the top 3, missing only Liquid and GG. Round 3 did not quite work out. Are placed on the 3rd position, but they're likely to qualify for TI anyway, so it's not critical. DreamLeague S20 are not spending badly not well, finishing in 7th place.
Liquid have convinced me of their intentions. They are performing very well. Although they lost to Tundra 0 2, going number 1 both cards, but something went wrong. And 9p play much weaker than Tundra and I doubt such cards would have managed to flip.
I'm a prognosticator, I live only by it. I devote all my time to it. No other interests.
I have been doing it for quite a long time and have had some success in it. Believe it or not, it's up to everyone. But why not give it a try? Maybe you will like this life too!
