The Czech T10 Super Series Championship Weekend has reached the decisive phase with the overall winners to be crowned today. All the four teams have played two encounters each on July 11, with their final group stage encounters scheduled for today.
The last two group stage matches would be followed by the eliminator between the second and third-placed teams in the points table. The winner of that clash will take on the group toppers in the all-important final to decide the championship winners.
Prague Spartans Vanguards are in the prime position to top the group and qualify for the finals of the Czech T10 Super Series 2020. Having defeated Bohemian CC and Brno Rangers in their first two league encounters, they would be up against the supposedly weaker Prague Barbarians Vandals in their final group match. A win in this clash would assure them of a place in the all-important final.
Bohemian CC and Brno Rangers have 2 points each with both having registered a win against Prague Barbarians Vandals while losing their respective encounters against Prague Spartans Vanguards. They would be facing each other in the second match of the day, which might prove to be a dress rehearsal for the eliminator unless Prague Barbarians Vandals cause a major upset by beating the Prague Spartans Vanguards.
Prague Barbarians Vandals are eliminated from the race for a spot in the knockout matches of the Czech T10 Super Series 2020 after having lost both their first two matches against Bohemian CC and Brno Rangers. They would be playing for pride against the Prague Spartans Vanguards in the first match of the day.
Following is the points table of the Czech T10 Super Series 2020 Championship Weekend after the first day of the league stage matches.
