Analyst Maniac has this take on the game:

16.30 - Prematch:

The mighty Danes take upon the NA-side from Liquid at the Grand Final of IEM Global Challenge 2020 to close out the CS:GO calendar. Both teams have met each other in many big matches and grand finals over the years. But who will reign supreme this time and take the $200.000 first-place prize at the tournament with them?

After Liquid’s match against BIG, Jake “Stewie2K” Yip was asked about the grand final and said, “I don’t think we have any nerves.” Even though the Danes have handed them numerous grand final losses, he added that he thinks this is not the same team. “I think we played Astralis once in a bo3 already and we feel like we are not playing the Astralis that we are usually playing on LAN, on the big stage. We feel like we really have a chance against them.”

Tune in and find out if Stewie2K and company can take down the mighty Danes to win their second grand final against them. The record is currently 8-1 in favor of Astralis, with the one win coming at IBUYPOWER Masters in January 2019.
