Endpoint and BIG Academy will play in the first round of the main stage of Elisa Invitational Winter 2023. To be honest, the European team is in terrible shape because they lose to just anyone.
In turn, the Germans continue to rebuild their roster, and now tiziaN is returning to the team due to changes in the main BIG roster. Nevertheless, BIG Academy is a rather uncomfortable team that is unlikely to leave the server without a map, given the problems of Endpoint.
Therefore, here I would recommend taking a closer look at the map from young Germans who can shoot.
Form Endpoint
The 34th team of the world ranking did not show anything at the start of the season in the ESL Pro League Season 17 Conference Europe, but still got some unexpected victories and took fourth place.
Then the European team went downhill, as they were eliminated from the first round of CCT North Europe Series 3, and also started with a defeat in CCT West Europe Series 1.
In general, the situation at Endpoint is deplorable, and it is unlikely that the team is in those conditions to play the first number throughout the series.

At the same time, the European team usually refuses the Nuke card.
BIG Academy Uniform
The 64th team in the world ranking had an unsuccessful start in the new season, having managed to fail in Thunderpick Bitcoin Series 2. In addition, the German team failed in the closed qualifier for MistGames Heroes of Lofoten 2023, which is quite unusual.
And yet, BIG Academy managed to get into the main draw of Elisa Invitational Winter 2023, getting two wins in four matches, and also got a technical victory over Falcons.

Prediction for the match Endpoint vs BIG Academy
It is clear that the Germans do not impress with stability. However, in the current realities, Endpoint is about nothing at all. In general, here I am inclined to rely on a sensation, since, in essence, the German team may well get together. Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Handicap by cards (+1.5) for the BIG Academy team.
