by www.youxiangrj01.com brings you Friday’s best esports bets and odds for two Dota 2 tournaments – WCAA Winter Challenge Cup and BTS Pro Series Season 4: SEA – as well as two Counter-Strike: Global Offensive fixtures from European Development Championship Season 1.
European Development Championship Season 1

?K23 and Copenhagen Flames will lock horns in the opening match of Group C at the European Development Championship. It will mark their third clash of the year and the first since Flames reverse-swept K23 (2-1) in November.
The Danes have since played 12 games and won six, whereas K23 have played out 10 games and lost only two. However, it’s important to note that five of K23’s wins came against much weaker sides in Project X, Cream Real Betis, Pompa Team and ex-Ethereal (twice).
K23 seem a bit overrated at these odds, which is likely due to their win against Dignitas (2-1) on Tuesday. Regardless of their recent success, we don’t believe they should be priced as such heavy favourites against a team they failed to defeat a month ago.

ALTERNATE ATTAX vs NATUS VINCERE JUNIOR CS:GO BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |
|
|---|---|
| CS:GO Betting Odds: | aTTaX $1.63 at GG Bet | NaVi Jr $2.16 at GG Bet |

?Despite Natus Vincere Junior’s solid 4-1 run, we are leaning more towards ALTERNATE aTTaX for our prediction. The latest CS:GO betting odds offered on the German squad are not particularly high, but we expected them to be closer to $1.50.
Robin “ScrunK” R?pke and co. might be 1-2 in their last three outings, but it’s hard to look past their 2-0 sweep of Sprout en route to the Merkur Masters Season 2 grand finals, where they eventually lost to BIG. Esports bookmakers are offering $1.81 on ALTERNATE aTTaX to win the game with at least three rounds to spare, which is too good to pass on.
ALTERNATE aTTaX -2.5 rounds
WCAA Winter Challenge Cup
IG VITALITY vs PHOENIX GAMING DOTA 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |
|
|---|---|
| Dota 2 Betting Odds: | iG.V $1.48 at GG Bet | Phoenix $2.56 at GG Bet |

?IG.Vitality enter this match with a 4-6 record from their last 10 outings, which includes losses against three semi-pro teams in Spade A, FTD.C.Club and team void. Phoenix Gaming hold a 3-5-2 record over the same stretch, but that includes matches against some much tougher teams than iG.V faced.
Even though iG.Vitality seem stronger, there is not a lot to separate the two sides. Phoenix have proven time and time again they can compete with A-Tier teams, so they should have a higher than 40% chance of causing an upset.

IG VITALITY vs CDEC GAMING DOTA 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |
|
|---|---|
| Dota 2 Betting Odds: | iG.V $1.68 at GG Bet | CDEC $2.13 at GG Bet |

?Since the departure of their entire roster in September, CDEC Gaming have plunged into a downward spiral. What’s more, they have not played a single match since they lost to iG.Vitality (0-2) during the second season of the CDA-FDC Pro Championship on November 13.
That result marked IG.Vitality’s first win over CDEC since October 2019, and considering how things are looking for CDEC, there is no reason to believe iG.V can’t do it again. Anything above $1.60 is a good price.

BTS Pro Series Season 4: SEA
FNATIC vs EXECRATION DOTA 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |
|
|---|---|
| Dota 2 Betting Odds: | Fnatic $1.68 at GG Bet | Draw $3.29 |
| When: | December 11, 2020 at 16:00 PHST |
| Watch Live: | Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/beyondthesummit) |
?Fnatic and Execration will clash on Friday for the first time since they drew 1-1 during the third season of the BTS Pro Series in September. The only previous fixture between the two teams in 2020 happened in June when Fnatic won 2-0.
Fnatic have only two games on record since September – against TNC Predator (1-2) and Motivate.Trust Gaming (1-1) – which is somewhat worrying since they will be facing a squad with 10 games under their belt in the past week alone. While that won’t do Fnatic any favours, it’s hard to side with Execration when they only seem to do well against much weaker sides.
It is not beyond the realms of possibility for Fnatic to win, but we like our chances with a draw.
