Team Spirit entered ESL Pro League Season 24 as one of the main candidates to win the event; however, they’ve quickly hit a slump and, after a 2-0 start, lost two back-to-back games. They’re not with their backs against the wall, where one more defeat would lead to an early elimination.
With pressure on Team Spirit to perform, a better showing is to be expected, and considering the quality of the opponent they will face, it is hard to question Spirit and their ability to come out ahead in this contest.
- Team Spirit are much higher rated than M80
- M80 have yet to show much against elite teams
- A must-win game for Spirit

Team Spirit Are Desperate For a Win
Team Spirit entered ESL Pro League Season as one of the main favourites to make a run for the trophy. They’ve been in superb shape over the last three months, with a semifinal run at the Intel Extreme Masters Cologne Major, a silver medal from BLAST Bounty Summer, and back-to-back titles from the Esports World Cup and BLAST Open Fall.
Early in ESL Pro League S24, Spirit performed as expected, disposing of 9z Team and PARIVISION. However, they then hit a slump and lost against MOUZ (0-2) and 1w Team (0-2), which puts them in an unenviable position ahead of the fifth round of play.
With two defeats, Spirit are facing elimination from the tournament and, considering their performance against 1w Team (5-13, 9-13), it is not beyond the realm of possibility for them to struggle against M80 as well. The question is whether Spirit will wake up for Wednesday.

M80 Struggle Against Elite Teams
M80 were not expected to make it out of the ESL Pro League Season 24 group stage alive, but they are now one win away from reaching the playoffs.
They’ve had a slow start to the tournament, losing against MOUZ (0-2) and BetBoom Team (0-2), before they picked up the pace and defeated TYLOO and 9z Team, both with 2-1, to enter the fifth round.
Winning back-to-back games indicates strong form; however, neither can be viewed as a strong team, so it is fair to question whether M80 have the tools to handle Team Spirit.
Looking back, M80 have not found much success when faced with their one teams, having managed only one notable victory over the last three months – and even that came against the struggling Natus Vincere during BLAST Open Fall.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| October 6 | ESL Pro League Season 24 | Legacy | 2-1 (W) |
| October 5 | ESL Pro League Season 24 | TYLOO | 2-1 (W) |
| October 4 | ESL Pro League Season 24 | BetBoom Team | 0-2 (L) |
| October 3 | ESL Pro League Season 24 | MOUZ | 0-2 (L) |
| September 27 | iBUYPOWER Masters FML 2026 | DENDELE | 2-1 (W) |

Verdict
Team Spirit’s downfall across the last two rounds is both confusing and worrying. But it does not take away from the fact that this is the most in-form team in the world, and a squad that entered the tournament as the main favourites to make a run for the trophy.
M80, on the other side, showed some signs of life in their last two outings, but they’ve not beaten a single team of Spirit’s calibre in the last few months. And there is little to suggest that will change on Wednesday.
Barring any major surprises, Spirit should cruise past M80.
