777 Esports made it past KOVA (2-0) last week with 16-11 on Nuke and 16-4 on Overpass, which was a very unexpected result, knowing that 777 lost against KOVA (0-2 and 8-16) just a week prior. However, even though it’s nice to see a team claim a revenge win, that performance doesn’t suggest that 777 Esports are now any better or more capable than they were throughout March.

It’s hard to be overly excited about 777, but you can say the same for MASONIC, who are nothing more than a second-tier team. Still, they’re in excellent form and enter this bout with an 8-2 record across their last ten outings and an even more impressive 26-6 record since the start of March.

Admittedly, MASONIC have not beaten a single good team over that stretch, but if you can hold an 81% win percentage over +30 outings, you have to be doing something right. Talent-wise, these two teams are evenly matched, so we have to side with MASONIC, who have shown better form.

Into the Breach are not the most consistent team, but they showed some flashes of greatness last week when they won against KOVA (2-1), 00Nation (2-0), and took a map from AVANGAR (1-2). It’s very evident that ITB have a lot of work ahead of them before they’ll form a strong synergy and start producing good results, but they have Owen “smooya” Butterfield, and that’s (sometimes) enough to win at this level of play.

Young Ninjas are 3-3 across their last six outings with wins against 00 Prospects (2-0), 00 Nation (2-1), and x-Gamer (16-13) and defeats against Copenhagen Flames (0-2), MAD Lions (1-2), and Endpoint (1-2). That’s hardly an impressive record, but Young Ninjas deserve a thumbs up for stealing a map from MAD Lions and Endpoint.

Into the Breach are still a bit shaky and Young Ninjas are not as bad as they seem, but at the offered CS:GO betting odds, we have to side with the Brits. Not only do they look better, but Into the Breach also have an ace up their sleeve in smooya, who can go on a rampage and solo carry this game.

Here are our selections for 777 Esports vs PACT and Savage vs KOVA, with top odds courtesy of the best esports betting sites.

777 Esports have yet to find their footing this season and have recently crashed out from the second European open qualifiers for PGL Major Antwerp. Likewise, PACT are not in a good spot and have yet to win nor come close to winning a single tournament since last year.

On a more positive note, PACT made a couple of roster changes last week by signing Adrian “SAYN” ??czyński and Mateusz “TOAO” Zawistowski. And even though they’re not star-level players, things can only go up for the Poles from here.

PACT have won only two of their last nine outings, whereas 777 have managed three wins in their last five. Still, 777 had to face much weaker opponents. There is no clear favourite for this match, and there is no reason for 777 Esports to be priced at $1.66. Value is with PACT at even money or better.

Savage completed its roster last week with Maikil “Golden” Selim, Jesper “tenzki” Plougmann, and coach Jonatan “Devilwalk” Lundberg to form a reasonably competitive roster. Admittedly, Golden is not as good as he once was, and the team doesn’t field any star players, but the potential is there.

KOVA are a constant in the second tier of professional CS:GO, and it doesn’t seem like the Finns will manage to break into the big boys league anytime soon. Still, they had a moment at the end of February, when KOVA won Elisa Open Suomi Season 1, but have since been largely disappointing; with seven wins across 14 outings, five of which came against semi-pro teams.

Savage are a bit of an enigma with the new faces, but you have to take their side over KOVA, who have not achieved anything outside of some minor regional competitions in months.
