Yesterday's mind-blowing results in Europe still amaze me today. Therefore, I propose to take a little break from the Old World and take a look at what is happening in the Chinese region.
There Elephant will play with Aster. The match will be held within the group stage of i-League 2021, and therefore may please with unpredictable results.
At the very least, we can expect that the teams are not fully prepared for a serious fight. However, this option most likely disappears, since there are very few DPC games, but you need to practice.
i-League 2021 is an excellent platform for this, and at the same time an extremely prestigious tournament with a long history in China. Let's see what to expect from Elephant and Aster in the face-to-face confrontation.
Team Aster Form
Let's start, perhaps, traditionally by discussing the form of nominal favorites. It is foolish to deny that in our case it is Team Aster.
In the new season, Aster is torn and thrown, and this is also not surprising. We remember Borax's misbehavior in front of the Singapore Major very well, and I think the reprimand for the player was appropriate.
So much so that Aster has not yet lost a match since arriving in China. Recent statistics help that.
Team Aster last 5 matches
- Win over RNG with a score of 2-0
- Beat IG 2-0
- Defeat PSG.LGD 2-0
- Defeat Vici Gaming 2-1
- Defeat Sparking Arrow Gaming 2-0
As we can see, Asters are indestructible. Moreover, both in the DPC and outside it: in the i-League, the team has a statistics of 2-0 in matches and 4-0 in maps.
Elephant shape
The "elephants" are not doing well again. So far, the star five is holding on to the second line of the DPC, but the positions are very shaky.
Having 1 victory and 2 defeat in the asset, one cannot speak of a stable position in the tournament. This is not an Aster with a 4-0 stat, and therefore, it seems to me that Elephant will not stay in the TOP-2 for a long time.
However, that’s DPC, and now we have i-League 2021. And here the situation is even worse for Elephant. After 5 weeks Elephant has 4-4 in games and 10-9 in cards, which is not very good.
Elephant's last 5 matches
- Defeat Sparking Arrow Gaming 2-0
- Defeat from PSG.LGD with a score of 1-2
- Lose from RNG with a score of 0-2
- Beat EHOME 0-2
- Lost to IG with a score of 1-2
As we can see, the latest results are unlikely to be compared with Aster, and in fact, it would be possible to put a full stop, if not for one "but". History of personal meetings.
Personal meeting history
These clubs have already played a decent number of face-to-face confrontations, but we will only be interested in some of them. So, in the last 5 games, Elephant has won 3 times.
By the way, the last meeting, which was played on 19.03, also ended in favor of Epephant.
Match outcome
Basically, I'm ready to bet on Aster. The only thing that confuses is the statistics of personal meetings. Although, if we take into account the fact that the last game between the clubs ended on March 19, before the transformation of Aster, this fact is no longer so worried.
Outcome: Aster's victory.
