Forutsigelse av kamp: Evil Geniuses - Fluxo | Counter-Strike (CS2)

As part of the BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2022 Americas, teams such as Evil Geniuses and Fluxo will compete against each other. Here, the Evil Geniuses team obviously plays the role of the favorite of the meeting. According to experts from bookmakers, their chances of winning are 66%, which is equivalent to a coefficient of 1.40 for a triumph. Should I just bet on EG to win here, or can I look for some alternative options? Let's analyze the game form and get an answer to this question.

Evil Geniuses Game Uniform

Evil Geniuses last took part in professional CS:GO matches in the first decade of October. The team took part in IEM Road to Rio 2022 Americas RMR and took 2nd place there. Considering the list of participants, this result is quite good, and EG, in turn, were able to provide themselves with a trip to the IEM Rio Major 2022 Challengers Stage. The roster was able to beat Nouns, FURIA Esports and 9z Team, but it turned out to be an impossible task to defeat Team Liquid. Given that Liquid is the 3rd team in the world, there is nothing surprising here, since EG are currently ranked 22nd in the HLTV ranking. In addition, it can be noted that the statistics of the Evil Geniuses maps are quite justified and the defeat in the fight against Liquid was aggravated by the fact that the team played on Ancient, which was inconvenient for them, even though there was Overpass, where their win rate is 66.7%.

Speaking about the arsenal of EG maps in more detail, you can see that the team has only 1 map where the roster performs very successfully. On Mirage EG they won 75% of the time. The top 3 are closed by Overpass and Nuke with 66.7% and 60% respectively. Ancient, Inferno and Dust 2 are maps that Evil Geniuses should not play. There, their winning percentage is 50%, 33.3% and 25%.

Fluxo play uniform

The Brazilian team Fluxo does not have an interesting roster and their position in the world rankings is not as good as in the case of Evil Geniuses. The team is ranked 39th in the list of the best CS:GO teams according to HLTV. The latest results of the team also make it clear that the team is not ready to play against Evil Geniuses. The team took part in the ESL Challenger Rotterdam 2022, where they took 5th-6th place. Roster failed to beat the Outsiders twice. At the end of September, Fluxo won CCT South America Series 2, defeating Corinthians, Isurus Gaming and Paqueta in the tournament. The level of these teams, to put it mildly, falls short not only of Evil Geniuses, but also directly of Fluxo. Consequently, the team did not have the proper preparation for playing against opponents of this level.

As for the arsenal of cards, in this regard, the Brazilians have good data. The best cards in the Fluxo map pool are Vertigo, Dust 2 and Nuke. The team played there most often and has a win rate ranging from 71.4% to 83.3%. If EG doesn't ban Vertigo, where Fluxo has an 83.3% win rate in 6 matches, then the Brazilians will have the opportunity to impose a good fight on their opponents. The same can be said about Dust 2 and Nuke, where the roster at 19 and 14 played matches has a win rate of 73.7% and 71.4%. On Inferno, Mirage and Ancient, the team performed a little less often, but the percentage of wins cannot be called frankly bad either. At Overpass, the line-up performed only 1 time and won.

Conclusion

Evil Geniuses is, of course, the favorite here. Here one could choose some alternative market, but if you pay attention to the Fluxo team's map pool, you can understand that EG can easily give up one map. And betting on Total over 2.5 here is a rather dubious event for the same reason. Fluxo did not play against Evil Geniuses and it is not known how the team will fight in this confrontation. The best and enough save option in this situation would be the usual bet on Evil Geniuses to win, and odds of 1.40 are not bad for such a match.

Final bet: Evil Geniuses to win at odds of 1.40
