The last day of the Legends Stage of CS: GO PGL Stockholm Major will witness Copenhagen Flames face Ninjas in Pyjamas (NIP) in a last-ditch effort to make it to the playoffs stage of the tournament.
The loser of this matchup will be eliminated from the CS: GO Major as one of the 9-11th placed teams with $17,500 to their name.
Copenhagen Flames’ run at the Avicii Arena has been an unbelievable one, as fans didn’t really expect the new Danish squad to breeze past the Challengers Stage. NIP’s Major run, on the other hand, has not been exactly what was expected from the #2 HLTV world ranking squad.

Prediction for Copenhagen Flames vs NIP in PGL Stockholm Major
NIP have looked tense whenever they've faced a strong opponent in the Major. It remains to be seen whether Copenhagen Flames can surmount enough pressure on the NIP squad in tonight’s series to make them crumble, taking lessons from Na’Vi and Gambit. Suffice to say, fans expect a back and forth series between the two sides.
