The first day of 2021 PGL Major Stockholm is behind us! The biggest winners are definitely Faze Clan and Copenhagen Flames, having won both of their openers. So did Heroic and Virtus.pro, though we kind of expected them to do so, really.
GODSENT suffered the same fate, though their losses are nowhere near as surprising as those of Astralis.
Dont really know what to say. Embarrassing from us, just not good enough. Sorry everyone, crossing my fingers for a bo3 reverse sweep

Astralis vs. GODSENT Betting Predictions
The last time these two faced off was way back in March 2018. There’s no point talking about those matches. Instead, let’s focus on the two teams to see if there’s any hidden value here!
Astralis Betting Preview
Let’s kick off with the Danish side. Astralis are one of the best teams out there… but only when they’re having a great day. When they’re off, like they’ve been earlier today, they’re absolutely unrecognizable. With or without bubzkji, these off days tend to happen way too often.
Astralis don’t have device anymore, meaning the rest of the pack has to step up a notch if they are to beat the greatest… but apparently, also if they are to beat lesser-known teams like CPHF and Entropiq. That is Astralis’ reality without bubzkji, I’m afraid.
However, this roster features four players who’ve already won four Majors. Lucky is the only inexperienced link, and if he can just relax a bit, I’m sure he’ll stop letting the big occasion get to his head.
Astralis are the rightful favorites here, but their moneyline isn’t worth it. What about the spread? Can they cover the spread in this bo3? Well, their map pool is much deeper than GODSENT’s so I’d say it’s a viable option.
But, we won’t cement it just yet. Let’s take a good look at GODSENT to see if they can create an upset tomorrow and eliminate the most successful CSGO Major team of all time.
GODSENT Betting Preview
With GODSENT’s old team getting acquired by FPX in mid-January, the Swedish organization decided to invest in a Brazilian roster made up of experienced CSGO veterans. TACO and felps lead the show, with the experienced IGL looking for more Major glory.
Astralis surely is one such team, which is another reason why we should opt for the Danes her – not just to win but to turn a new page and absolutely demolish the Brazilians!
Wrapping Things Up
Here’s the wrap-up:
Astralis has to come alive! They have to get back up from the dirt and qualify to the next stage with three straight wins. I just can’t see them falling out of the tournament at this stage, especially not like this.
That would be all for today boys and girls! Join us again tomorrow for the final day of PGL Major Challengers Stage predictions!
