Fnatic and Spirit go to battle for the first time tonight as they kickoff proceedings for Group C in the 2020 European DreamHack Masters.
Fnatic currently occupy the world #2 ranking in CSGO, although the Swedes have looked anything but a top tier side of late, losing four of their last seven matches since clinching the ESL Pro League final.
Alternatively, Spirit have won ten of their last twelve outings and have shot up the world rankings to 9th.
Tonight will be the first time these sides do battle, the bookies have Fnatic as short odd favourites but form suggests that this contest will be anything but a foregone conclusion.
The Group C fixtures continue when FaZe meet Godsent for the second time this month.
FaZe are looking to break a two match losing streak which followed an incredible run of nine straight victories, including a conclusive 2-nil win against Godsent.
Alternatively, Godsent have been free falling down the world rankings this month, only managing a meagre three victories across their last ten outings.
FaZe has dominated this clash in the past, claiming eight of the last nine maps against their foes and should walk it in again tonight.
