Can Virtus Pro finally take a map while they have nothing to play for?

Yesterday I took this bet at 2.75 however odds have dropped since then, I took 3u at them odds, 2.15 is still perfectly fine for 1u which are the current odds on Unibet.

Virtus Pro

Virtus Pro once again lost 2-0 for the third day in a row in a game that never looked close vs G2. I've already done 3 articles in a row betting against Virtus Pro and every point I made is still valid so feel free to check out any old articles.

They are also now officially out of the ESL Pro Leauge because it's impossible to get enough points to make it out of the group stage. With this said it doesn't mean they don't need to finish their last 2 games vs OG and Tyloo. Considering they've looked as bad as they have vs all these other teams when they had something to still play for I just don't see a world in where they perform well in these upcoming 2 games.

Within the next month I believe this team will be making a roster change. More than likely this change will involve -SANJI/-Adren. Just another reason motivation will be low in this game for Virtus Pro.

OG

OG is a fairly new team that has a very similar story to the one of mousesports. They have unwanted players who got dropped from their previous teams (NBK and Aleskib) and then they've filled the rest of the team with firepower. An interesting pickup for this team was Mantuu. Before he got picked up by OG I watched him play alot in Alternate Attax and he would pretty much hard carry them in most games, however competing against top level teams where your full team isn't supporting you is completely different to the games he was playing. With that said he seems to have transitioned really well into top level play with OG and currently looks great in this team.

OG are currently still undefeated at 3-0 in the ESL Pro League and have beat in my opinion the 2 best teams in this group (mousesports and G2) which I don't think anyone would of expected at this point considering they was pretty big underdogs to both G2 and mousesports but upset both teams and actually beat both of those teams very comfortably.

My Bet Reasoning

Virtus Pro just have quite literally nothing to play for here unless their trying to play for team morale if they've decided internally they still want to stick as a team (which shouldn't be the case)

Virtus Pro are 0-6 in maps in the Pro League while OG are currently 6-1 with the only loss coming to mousesports in a map that went to overtime. You have the team that's number 1 in the group facing off against a team that has nothing to play for. It shouldn't need to be said but obviously Virtus Pro have looked really bad and OG have looked really good.
