Meeting statistics

The new lineup for Ninjas in Pyjamas has been finalized. Patrick “es3tag“ Hansen (brought back from inactivity) and Alejandro “ALEX“ Masanet (came from Movistar Riders) will replace Hampus “hampus“ Poser and Ludvig “Brollan“ Brolin. The latter two will have the chance to take revenge on their former team for getting benched at the 2023 CS Asia Championships when fnatic and NiP face off later on in the tournament. Changes were required even though the new hires don’t appear to be significant improvements in the Ninjas in Pyjamas’ gameplay.

Ninjas in Pyjamas have had a difficult few months and haven’t made much of an impression in any of the tournaments they’ve participated in, as evidenced by their early eliminations from the Roobet Cup 2023 (9th–12th) and, prior to that, from the Thunderpick World Championship 2023 (13th–16th). Therefore, even though it’s unclear how NiP’s new roster will perform, things can’t get any worse. Actually, they can only get better from here.

Unlike a lot of other teams at the BetBoom Dacha: Closed Qualifier, MIBR hasn’t recently changed its roster. The Brazilian team won XL Games 2023 one month after taking home silver in the CCT Online Finals #3 at the end of September. They have only played four games since XL Games 2023, winning three of them.

Head-to-head encounters

These two have played 12 times against each other at the professional level before. MIBR have the better head-to-head record with six wins, while NiP took four triumphs. Two mutual encounters ended in a draw: both at the Blast Pro Series – in 2018 (Istanbul, Turkey) and 2019 (Moscow, Russia). Furthermore, Ninjas in Pyjamas prevailed over MIBR in the last two head-to-heads.

Match analytics

MIBR have only defeated inferior teams, despite their current winning streak. Even with their current weaknesses, defeating NiP, who are actually favorites on paper, won’t be simple for the Brazilians.

Yet, we have faith in MIBR and suggest betting on their moneyline win: Match Winner MIBR at odds of 2.10 on Rivalry.
