PGL Masters Bucharest heads into the penultimate day of its group stage. On 27 October, three teams will join FUT and BETBOOM in the playoffs, while three others will be sent home from Romania.
The first match in the qualification pool is Aurora against Liquid. Aurora's line-up includes Macedonian player Damjan "kyxsan" Stoilkovski, and the winner will secure a playoff spot.
The day's headline match is Spirit against MOUZ. It will be the eighth meeting between the teams this year, following recent clashes at ESL Pro League and in the finals of BLAST Bounty Season 2 Finals and BLAST Open Porto. MOUZ hold a 3-1 record over Spirit since the summer break.
The last match in that pool is Vitality against Natus Vincere. Justinas "jL" Lekavicius, who is playing as a stand-in for Vitality, will face NAVI for the first time in his career.
In the elimination pool, DENDELE meet Nemiga, The MongolZ face Legacy, and FURIA take on a hampered TYLOO.
