📝Despite having a fairly strong roster, Astralis still haven't found their game.

Over the past month, the team has only marked a victory against Astralis (2:0) in the IEM Katowice. However, they were unable to qualify for the main stage of the tournament. A similar situation occurred at the regional qualifiers for BLAST Open Lisbon, when in the grand final MIBR lost to Imperial with a score of 1:2. In the current event, the team only managed to beat Imperial Valkyries (2:0).
❗️It should be noted that the total of the first map being under 22.5 rounds has played out in 6 of MIBR's last 7 matches.

Editor's Prediction
Currently, MIBR is far from their best form, so it can be said that in the elimination match, Astralis got a relatively easy opponent. At the moment, the Danes are the only tier-1 team that has not been able to defeat the Brazilians this season. Another loss would be a complete failure for them, so we expect them to prepare thoroughly for this game. In our opinion, an Astralis victory is the most likely outcome of this encounter.
