The Argentine will need to finish in the top two to secure his place in the quarter-finals.
However, City’s Esports player faces a big task after a difficult first round of games in December when he lost all four matches to leave him bottom of Group B.
Four victories tonight could see Bonanno secure a place in the last eight if he can overcome his rivals in a second round of fixtures.
PHzin, representing Ajax, tops the group ahead of his fellow Brazilian Young, followed by Happy, from Mexico, and another Argentinian in FacuCowen.

He picked up a point in his opening four games and sits six behind the qualification mark.
