Thursday's pre-match stuff as usual!

Sorry I'm a little late. Been multi-tasking all day :-s Just straight picks and expected win/loss, with a tiny blurb this time around.

Pool Legends over BritPool 4-3 - PL doesn't figure to be nearly as strong as past seasons on paper, and they'll struggle a bit out of the gate here. But they have a VERY strong game 7 player in Sova of course. If it takes 7, expect a PL win.
PL Expected Win/Loss: 10-4 (T2)
BP Expected Win/Loss: 10-4 (T2, they win the tiebreaker with a 5-2 win the 2nd time they meet)

Malditos 5-2 over Lucky Shots - LS is having a good run in PRO but again, 5v5 with a carry format... Not much of an indicator and when guys NEED to win multiple games for you in come-from-behind wins, you'll be in trouble in one-and-done MLP. They'll have a decent season, maybe. But this week Malditos are simply better, they'll be a tough team early but as the season goes on, they'll have trouble getting their best 7 in (as usual.)
MLD Expected Win/Loss: 7-7 (#4)
LS Expected Win/Loss: 4-10 (T6)
