Team Secret vs. Unique Odds, Prediction, and Pick for April 16th – ESL One LA, EU, and CIS

The final round of the 2020 ESL One tournament is upon us and it’s time to see which teams will be making the playoffs. There are plenty of exciting games at the event today but here I concentrate on the Group B clash between Team Secret and Unique.

If you’ve been paying close attention you know full well who the favorite is here. Let’s see if the underdog has any chance of upsetting the odds.

BetOnline is once again on top of all the Dota 2 developments and here is what the bookmaker has in store for us here:

When you see a price of -1111 you just know the other team is in a world of trouble. Is there any way Unique can overcome the odds here? Let’s check the recent records of the teams and see.

The team booked their place in the playoffs a long time ago. They boast a perfect record of 6-0 coming into the last tie and have lost only two maps since the start of the tournament.

Clearly, Team Secret is already in playoff mode and won’t care too much about the result here but they have built such a momentum that I can’t really say that they will be vulnerable even if they don’t play at full throttle.

Losing against Chicken Fighters yesterday pretty much sealed the fate of Unique. There were a couple of good performances against Ninjas in Pyjamas and Team Liquid but racking up four losses prior to facing Team Secret means only one thing.

The team can definitely take pride in their performances as they aren’t even in the Top 100 organizations and still managed to come away with a couple of wins.

Their outing against Team Secret today will be a great consolidation prize but I fear it’s not going to be anything more than that.

No need to mince words here. Team Secret may have clinched qualification but did that a long time ago and it still hasn’t made a difference for them.

I am certain they will come out in full force and Unique does not have the resources to stop them. It was a good ride for the underdogs but the ESL One tournament comes to an end for them.

Given the huge mismatch, you won’t be able to go with high odds here so backing Team Secret to win this 2:0 is my recommendation. It’s not much but it’s practically free money at this point.
