Forutsigelse på match CS2 Vitality - Outsiders

Vitality and Outsiders will meet in the third round of IEM Rio Major 2022 Challengers Stage. It would seem that the Danish-French team should have been preparing for BO3 now, but again they have to get on the roulette table and try their luck on one card.

As for the Outsiders, the team got off to a terrible start at the event, even though they got one win. But, given the trend, the Russian team should play out during the tournament, which we have seen many times before.

Well, Vitality still can't find their game, just as team failures happen on a regular basis.

Form Vitality

The second team in the world ranking won ESL Pro League Season 16, but then they played terribly at IEM Road to Rio 2022 Europe RMR B, although they made it to the Major.

Then the Danish-French team performed at BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2022 Europe, but they didn’t show themselves there either and were eliminated after the defeat by Astralis.

As for the start at IEM Rio Major 2022, here Vitality got a very easy victory over Imperial Esports. And yet the team got back on track, somehow losing to GamerLegion.

Vitality's latest results:

• Defeat from Heroic with a score of 1:2.
• Victory over TYLOO with a score of 2:0.
• Defeated by Astralis with a score of 1:2.
• Victory over Imperial Esports with a score of 16:9.
• Lost to GamerLegion with a score of 10:16.

• Vertigo - 75% of wins.
• Overpass - 67% of wins.
• Inferno - 62% of wins.
• Nuke - 60% win rate.
• Mirage - 50% of wins.

Let's not forget that the Danish-French team continues to refuse the Ancient map.

Form Outsiders

The eighth team of the world ranking with problems went through the IEM Road to Rio 2022 Europe RMR B, only in the last round having received their ticket to the major.

Further, the Russian team gained experience as part of the ESL Challenger at DreamHack Rotterdam 2022, where they became the winner after an excellent performance in the playoffs.

However, at the start of IEM Rio Major 2022, the Outsiders had much more problems, as the team not only lost to MOUZ, but also barely outplayed IHC.

Latest Outsiders results:

• Victory over Fluxo with a score of 2:0.
• Victory over MOUZ with a score of 2:1.
• Victory over ENCE with a score of 2:0.
• Lost to MOUZ with a score of 6:16.
• Victory over IHC with a score of 16:12.

Best Outsiders cards:

• Vertigo - 100% wins.
• Dust 2 - 70% win rate.
• Ancient - 60% of wins.

Do not forget that the Russian team continues to ban the Nuke map.

Vitality vs Outsiders match statistics

As part of the current season, the teams held three meetings:

• Vitality's victory at ESL Pro League Season 15 with a score of 2:0.
• Outsiders win at PGL Major Antwerp 2022 with a score of 16:8.
• Vitality's victory at ESL Pro League Season 16 with a score of 2:0.

I note that in BO1 at the last major, the teams played on the Mirage map.

Prediction for the match Vitality — Outsiders

For some reason, it seems to me that Vitality will not correct its mistakes in a day, because the players simply do not understand each other and stumble upon communication problems.

In turn, the Russian team is likely to improve their game. Moreover, Vitality cannot boast of any special statistics, and there are no card advantages, except for Inferno.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend taking a chance and betting on the Outsiders team to win.
