GamerLegion and Virtus.pro will meet in the group stage of PGL Bucharest 2025 in a 2-1 match. This will be a decisive game for the playoffs, so tension is guaranteed. Both teams showed strength at the start, but one of them has to go further. The game will be played in the Bo3 format. The teams have not met in the last six months.
Current form of the teams
GamerLegion
GamerLegion had a good start at the PGL Bucharest, with victories over Falcons (2-0) and Legacy (2-1) emphasizing the team's preparation. Despite a poor start in 2025, GL's form has improved significantly. Prior to the Bucharest, they had a series of losses: defeats to G2, paiN, and The MongolZ.

Virtus.pro
VP also has 2 victories in the tournament: over Liquid (2-0) and FURIA (2-0). However, the defeat by Rare Atom (0-2) showed their weaknesses. In general, the team is experienced and often plays for the result, but they are inherently unstable, which can be seen in their performances in Katowice, Cluj-Napoca and BLAST Open Spring.

Map Pool
GamerLegion demonstrates a strong performance on Inferno (62%) and Ancient (67%). However, the terrible performance on Dust II (0%), Train (0%) and low performance on Nuke (38%) call into question their variability. In general, the team chooses maps where they can play aggressively, but instability on Anubis (43%) is a problem.
Virtus.pro, on the other hand, is confident on Dust II (77%), which is their strongest map, and also has a good rating on Inferno (53%) and Train (450%). Nuke (0%) and Anubis (36%) remain problematic. The team is stable in pickup and tries to avoid experiments.

Match prediction.
GamerLegion has significantly improved in form, and their victories over Falcons and Legacy are proof of that. At the same time, Virtus.pro demonstrated their strength on two stable maps, beating Liquid and FURIA. It is important that the teams have not met before in 2025, which adds to the intrigue.
Considering the mappings, we can expect three maps: GL will try to take Ancient or Inferno, while VP will go for Train or Anubis. This is a match for the playoffs, so every mistake can be fatal. The key factor will be Virtus.pro's discipline and players' experience.
Expected result: Virtus.pro will win 2-1.
