Xtreme Gaming vs MOUZ - ESL One Birmingham 2026

MOUZ arrive at this match in worrying shape. A 36% winrate over the past month tells a story of inconsistency, and their recent results back it up. Three losses in five outings, including back-to-back defeats to Yandex and Tundra, expose a team that struggles under pressure against quality opposition.

Xtreme Gaming have their own concerns. A 21% winrate last month and back-to-back losses to Team Spirit and Aurora are not encouraging signs. But they showed exactly what they are capable of just one day ago, dismantling OG 2-0 as heavy underdogs. When Xtreme Gaming are locked in, they can dominate a single series against anyone.

That is the key factor here. MOUZ hold only a 33% head-to-head winrate against Xtreme Gaming, and the Chinese squad took both meetings in February, including a commanding 2-0. This is a matchup where Xtreme Gaming have historically held the edge, and with their ceiling firmly on display heading into this playoff clash, backing them to extend that dominance is the clear call.
