Dota 2: T1 vs PSG.LGD TI 10 predictions

Despite their rough start at the initial group stage match-ups, T1 got their footing back on the second and third day, starting with their surprise 2-0 victory against Virtus.pro. Their carry, 23savage, is a crowd-favourite with his recent 12,000 MMR pedigree. Thanks to Undying holding a series draw against Evil Geniuses at the final hour, T1 managed to secure a last-minute spot in the group stage.

While T1 will have the momentum from back-to-back 2-0 series wins, PSG.LGD is par excellence this year. They have been the biggest TI 10 favorites since their AniMajor win. Their top spot in the group B table at the end of the group stage also echoes their dominance. Naturally, T1 are the underdogs who will have to miraculously outclass the Chinese Goliath.

PSG.LGD only secured the third position in the ONE Esports SIngapore Major. Since the second leg of DPC 2021, however, their performance has been near-spotless.
