The event is organized by DreamHack, brings together 8 teams from 6 different regions, has a prize pool of $300,000 and offers 300 qualification points for the <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/dota-2\/the-international\/\" title=\"More about the International\">next edition of The International<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Although DreamLeague Season 9 is only a Minor, many of the world\u2019s best teams will be attending it. As a result, the event offers great matches and excellent Dota 2 betting opportunities. Kenny R gives his <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/predictions\/\" title=\"Free esports predictions\">free predictions<\/a> below. <\/p>\n<h2>Prize distribution and participants<\/h2>\n<p>Because it belongs to the Dota Pro Circuit, DreamLeague Season 9 offers 300 qualification points in addition to the $300.000 prize pool. These rewards will be divided among participating teams in the following way:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1st place: 150 points; $125.000<\/li>\n<li>2nd place: 90 points; $70.000<\/li>\n<li>3rd place: 45 points; $30.000<\/li>\n<li>4th place: 15 points; $30.000<\/li>\n<li>5th &#8211; 6th place: 0 points; $15.000<\/li>\n<li>7th &#8211; 8th place: 0 points; $7.500<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>DreamLeague Season 9 features 8 teams from 6 different regions:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>China: <\/strong>Newbee.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Southeast Asia:<\/strong> Fnatic.<\/li>\n<li><strong>North America: <\/strong>Immortals.<\/li>\n<li><strong>South America:<\/strong> PaiN Gaming.<\/li>\n<li><strong>CIS:<\/strong> Team Empire.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Europe: <\/strong>Team Liquid, Team Secret, OG.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Dream League Season 9 event format<\/h2>\n<p>DreamLeague Season 9 will be played in a double-elimination bracket format with all of the teams starting in the upper bracket. All matches are Bo3, except for the Grand Final (Bo5).<\/p>\n<h2>Free betting tips for Dota 2 Dream League Season 9<\/h2>\n<h3>Fnatic vs. OG<\/h3>\n<p>These two teams are of roughly the same strength, although Fnatic has a significant advantage due to the fact that OG lost a very important player recently. Resolut1on\u2019s departure will no doubt have a negative short- term impact on OG\u2019s teamplay and overall coordination.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Betting analysis:<\/strong> Bovada puts the odds at -135 \/ -105 or around 1.74 \u2013 2.05 in favor of Fnatic, and at these odds a bet on the Southeast Asian team is definitely worthwhile.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best bet:<\/strong> Back Fnatic at -138.89 at <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/betonline\/\"  title=\"Claim bonus at BetOnline\"  target=\"_blank\">BetOnline<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Newbee vs. Immortals<\/h3>\n<p>This match can only end one way, as it\u2019s impossible for a team of Immortals caliber to beat Newbee not once, but twice. The Bo3 format ensures that the best team wins in the vast majority of cases.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Betting analysis:<\/strong> Bovada puts the odds at -1000 \/ +475 or around 1.10 \u2013 5.75 in favor of Newbee, as this is basically free money to be made.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best bet:<\/strong> Back Newbee at -1612.9 at <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/betonline\/\"  title=\"Claim bonus at BetOnline\"  target=\"_blank\">BetOnline<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Team Secret vs. Team Empire<\/h3>\n<p>This is another match between two teams of vastly different levels of skill. Team Secret will probably mop the floor with Team Empire, who is present at this event simply because the top CIS teams had no interest in it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Betting analysis:<\/strong> Bovada puts the odds at -1000 \/ +475 or around 1.10 \u2013 5.75 in favor of Team Secret, allowing you to make a 10% profit on an almost certain result.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best bet:<\/strong> Back Team Secret at -1204.82 at <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/betonline\/\"  title=\"Claim bonus at BetOnline\"  target=\"_blank\">BetOnline<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Team Liquid vs. PaiN Gaming<\/h3>\n<p>PaiN Gaming\u2019s performance at the recent WESG tournament was no doubt impressive, but it\u2019s not exactly relevant going into this match. And that\u2019s because the WESG tournament brought together mostly improvised teams made up of players of just one nationality. As a result, almost none of the world\u2019s best teams attended the event. The only one who did was Virtus.pro. They replaced one player (No[o]ne, who is Ukrainian) and played under the name Team Russia. VP won WESG by defeating PaiN Gaming in the Grand Final.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Betting analysis:<\/strong> Since this is a Bo3 series, PaiN Gaming\u2019s chances against the TI 7 champions are extremely low. Bovada puts the odds at -2500 \/ +800 or around 1.04 \u2013 9.00 in favor of Team Liquid, as this will likely be a very easy match for the Europeans.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best bet:<\/strong> Back Team Liquid at -2000 at <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/betonline\/\"  title=\"Claim bonus at BetOnline\"  target=\"_blank\">BetOnline<\/a><\/p>\n\n<!-- Table view: sport-bp -->\n<style>\/* info
