JiJieHao vs Eternal Fire Betting Predictions
JiJieHao and Eternal Fire will face off on Thursday, September 24, in the first round of Group D at Stake Pulse Beat II, in what should be a straightforward win for EF.
Neither team is expected to compete for the trophy in Sweden; however, JiJieHao enter the tournament in much worse form.
They’ve struggled to find traction in their recent competitive endeavours and have been particularly disappointing in their more recent outings, suffering defeats against Echo, 33, and Nordic Partners Gaming.
While Eternal Fire haven’t been massively consistent either, they have shown much higher highs this season and deserve more respect ahead of Thursday’s affair.
- Eternal Fire have shown much higher highs this season
- JiJieHao are in bad shape
- This is Eternal Fire’s game to lose
JiJieHao Are 1-0 Up in Head-to-Head
JiJieHao and Eternal Fire met only once before this season, in February, when JiJieHao won 2-1.

JiJieHao Have More to Prove
JiJieHao return to the arena this week, after previously featuring at the Esports World Cup as their first big event of the season since the Asian Champions League in May, where they finished second.
Placed in a much tougher field than what JiJieHao are used to, they did not accomplish much in their quest for the EWC trophy, finishing the event in 17th-24th place after crashing out of Group A with a 1-2 record.
That record includes an upset win against Team Spirit, and two bad losses against GamerLegion and Aurora Gaming.
Since then, JiJieHao have attended a couple of qualifiers for Stake Pulse beat II and PGL Masters Bucharest 2026, and have produced mixed results. With a 6-4 record, they’ve shown a lack of consistency, namely in the recent month, with losses against Echo, 33, and Nordic. Their only two wins over that stretch came against Phantom Academy and ENJOY, which is hardly worth praise.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| September 6 | PGL Masters Bucharest EU Open Qualifier #2 | Nordic Partners | 10-13 (L) |
| September 5 | PGL Masters Bucharest EU Open Qualifier #2 | ENJOY | 13-2 (W) |
| September 4 | PGL Masters Bucharest EU Open Qualifier #1 | 33 | 9-13 (L) |
| September 3 | PGL Masters Bucharest EU Open Qualifier #1 | Phantom Academy | 13-7 (W) |

Eternal Fire Are Showing Signs of Life
Eternal Fire enter Stake Pulse Beat II fresh off a title-winning run at Circuito Retake Season 12, marking their first tournament title since winning the European Pro League Series 8 in July.
Even that success, however, does not prove much as EF haven’t had to beat any good teams at Circuito Retake Season 12 – facing WIMOK, Rebels, Nice Try, Gone, and WhiteBIT Team.
Before their Circuito Retake run, Eternal Fire hadn't looked as sharp, going 2-3 over five games, with wins against HEROIC and K27 and losses against Nuclear TigeRES, HOTU, and HEROIC. But they have won nine of the previous 10.
Form-wise, Eternal Fire have been a bit all over the place; however, they have been showing some signs of life since August.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| September 20 | Circuito Retake Season 12 | WBT | 2-0 (W) |
| September 20 | Circuito Retake Season 12 | GOne | 2-0 (W) |
| September 19 | Circuito Retake Season 12 | Nice Try | 2-0 (W) |
