If Mati or Tekkz lose their respective games, they will get a second chance to overcome their opponent in another best of two.
The City Esports duo are fighting for a place in the Finals Group Stages which will take place on 20/21 January 2024.
Tekkz has already been in fine form this season, going unbeaten at the FC Pro Open Global Qualifiers and will be looking to extend his winning ways in another season competing in the ePrem.
He has his eyes set on making history by becoming the first Pro to win the ePremier League twice, having won the inaugural ePrem in 2019. It would also make Man City Esports the first organisation to win the competition twice.
For Bonanno, he’ll be looking to have a fiery start in his ePremier League debut, having made the switch from eLaLiga in the summer.
And you’ll be able to get updates throughout the evening, with their matches starting around 21:00 (UK), via City’s esports X account: @mancityesports.
