SKADE and 4Glory Esports will make their first steps in the Snow Sweet Snow #1 on Thursday when they clash in the opening fixture of Balkan Group. It will mark the first time these sides will meet on the battlefield and SKADE’s first official match since December when they won the European ESEA Season 35: Premier Relegation.
4Glory Esports is a relatively unknown stack of Balkan CS:GO players, who have yet to make any noise in the competitive scene outside of a top-three finish at the A1 Adria League Season 6. Most recently, they were seen competing in the second and third open qualifiers for the OMEN WGR European Challenge, where they failed to finish above ninth-16th.
Last week SKADE parted ways with their in-game leader Teodor “SPELLAN” Nikolov, which is a huge blow to their chances of solidifying themselves as a competitive second-tier team. Regardless, 4Glory are an amateur team and should not cause the experienced Bulgarian lineup too many issues.

FATE Esports will clash with the former Turkey5 lineup playing under the Sangal Esports banner in what promises to be a very one-sided affair. Sangal are heavily favoured to win, because FATE initiated a complete roster rebuild earlier this month, however, that does not necessarily mean FATE are as weak as the CSGO betting odds suggest.
The Turkish squad enter this match off a five-week-long hiatus, so some ring rust is expected and consequently sloppier gameplay. Even though we are not too high on FATE’s new project, they have some solid pieces, namely their in-game leader Nikolay “niki1” Pantaleev, as well as the ex-BLUEJAYS International duo Ivan “Rock1nG” Stratiev and Ivan “Patrick” Ivanov, who should bring enough to the table to keep this match close. Fate Esports +1.5 maps is paying around the $2.17 mark with the leading esports betting sites.
