Natus Vincere face BetBoom Team for the IEM Beijing 2026 bronze medal on Sunday, November 8. Despite being favourites, NaVi have looked out of form, struggling in the group stage and losing to The MongolZ in the semifinals. BetBoom Team, meanwhile, have shown resilience, beating Team Liquid and reaching the playoffs as Group B’s third seed. The teams are tied 1-1 in head-to-head meetings this year. With NaVi’s shaky form and BetBoom’s recent strong results, BetBoom are tipped as the outsiders in what appears to be a 50/50 contest.

Natus Vincere vs BetBoom Team Betting Predictions


Natus Vincere and BetBoom Team will face off for the Intel Extreme Masters Beijing 2026 bronze medal on Sunday, November 8, marking their third clash of the year.

Natus Vincere enter this match as favourites, but there’s little to suggest they deserve that tag. NaVi have looked iffy this tournament, especially in the semifinals against The MongolZ.

Even though BetBoom Team haven’t been amazing, they have beaten in-form Liquid, and have solid results behind them in the weeks leading up to IEM Beijing.

At best, this should be a 50/50 match, so it is easy to imagine BetBoom beating the shaky-looking Natus Vincere.

  • Natus Vincere are falling out of form
  • BetBoom Team won the last matchup against NaVi
  • BB Team can surprise

Natus Vincere Look Very Shaky


Natus Vincere have had a bumpy road so far in Beijing. They made it through Group A as the third seed, beating Team Falcons (twice) and B8, but lost to FURIA.

In the playoffs, Natus Vincere hardly showed anything exciting. They edged past the unconvincing PARIVISION in the quarterfinals, but lost against The MongolZ with 10-13 on Cache and 11-13 on Inferno.

While it was a close game, seeing NaVi lose to The MongolZ is hardly inspiring and a worrying result ahead of their clash with BetBoom Team.

BetBoom Team Are Not Weak


BetBoom Team have not had the best start to the tournament, reaching the playoffs as Group B’s third seed. In the group stage, BB Team bested 9z Team, then lost to MOUZ and made a run through the lower bracket, beating Aurora Gaming and Team Liquid.

In the playoffs, however, BetBoom Team handled FURIA (2-1) before suffering another 0-2 loss against the high-flying MOUZ.

BetBoom Team haven’t been amazing this tournament, but they’ve also been far from bad, losing just two games against the tournament favourites, MOUZ. Moreover, BB Team have shown good form ahead of their trip to Beijing with a runner-up finish in the Thunderpick World Championship.

Verdict

Natus Vincere might be a more established team, but they’ve looked very shaky this tournament and have not impressed with their performances. Especially in the semifinals, NaVi appeared lost, which is not a good look ahead of Sunday’s game.

BetBoom Team haven’t been amazing, but they have shown some good things and have been in good shape ahead of IEM Beijing. With that in mind, it is hard to understand why they are viewed as underdogs.

At best, this is a coin-flip game, making BetBoom Team an easy pick as outsiders.
