Seoul Infernal have to hold their ground as a top team in the league. O2 Blast is a dangerous team, that has had up and coming rookies since their inception. As long as Seoul Infernal carry that momentum that they had coming out of the games against Guangzhou Charge and Hangzhou Spark, they should be able to topple the best Contenders team in the world. In fact, if Infernal win this game, they'll have wins against Guangzhou Charge, Hangzhou Spark, and the best Contenders team in the world, O2 Blast. It's very possible Seoul Infernal can head out of the Spring Stage Knockouts East and into the Midseason Madness tournament as the favorites to win it.

After beating PANTHERA, O2 Blast showed that they aren't here to play with those they've already topped in Contenders. This is what they came for. A shot at a high ranking Overwatch League team. If Contenders is going to have a representative get past Spring Stage Knockouts East, it starts with this game. O2 Blast will have to beat the second best in the East if they want to head to the final round and try to qualify for Midseason Madness.
