The first week of the DreamLeague Season 14 DPC EU Upper Division will conclude on Saturday, January 23 with an exciting clash between Team Nigma and their former employer Team Liquid, in what is shaping up as a proper rivalry between two of the best European Dota 2 teams. Here is our betting prediction for the match and best odds courtesy of the top-rated esports betting sites.

This will mark Team Nigma’s first meeting with Team Liquid since early in December 2020 when Aydin “iNSaNiA” Sarkohi and his team secured a 2-1 victory. It marked Liquid’s fifth win of the year and their second of the month, however, it’s worth noting that Liquid lost their remaining nine games (5-9) throughout 2020.

These are two of the best European Dota 2 teams and while we would rank Nigma higher, they’re also far more inconsistent, so it’s difficult to trust them with our money. Out of 12 best-of-three series between these two sides, eight ended in all three maps played, which includes all of the last three. Esports bookmakers offer $2.02 on that trend to continue which is a great bet we can’t pass on.
