Forutsigelse av kamp: Sprout - OG | CS2 (CS:GO)
IEM Katowice 2023 Play-InSprout and OG will play in the first round of the Play-In stage at IEM Katowice 2023. I think that the Danish team can shine in this championship, but it is unlikely that in this match, and in general, it will be very difficult for the guys to break into the group stage.
It is clear that OG cannot boast of stable results and a mature game, but the team performs at the TIER-1 level, thanks to which it has some kind of advantage.
In turn, Sprout had a terrible start to the new season, showing nothing at several championships. And if you look at the game, the Danes clearly could not properly prepare for the tournaments, having lost all their advantages.
Therefore, here I would not wait for sensations, since ruggah wards must close the meeting in class and go to the next round in the upper bracket. Well, the Danes should be wished good luck, because with a favorable grid, the guys can cling to the chances.
Sprout form
The nineteenth team in the world ranking recently visited the ESL Pro League Season 17 Conference Europe, where they had a good start and were considered the favorites.
However, after defeating the Falcons, the Danish team managed to lose to Eternal Fire and Endpoint, thus dropping out of the championship. Moreover, even then there were noticeable gaps in the preparation, which Sprout did not solve further.
Of the latter, the team made it to the playoffs of CCT South Europe Series 2, where they lost to Partizan in the first round. In general, the position of the team is very controversial, and I do not believe that the guys can surprise in such a fight.
Latest Sprout results:
- Defeated by BIG Academy with a score of 1:2.
- Victory over the Falcons with a score of 2:0.
- Defeat from Eternal Fire with a score of 1:2.
- Defeat from Endpoint with a score of 1:2.
- Defeated by Partizan with a score of 1:2.
Best Sprout cards:
- Ancient - 88% of wins.
- Vertigo - 57% of wins.
- Overpass - 56% of wins.
- Inferno - 50% win rate.
It is worth noting that the Danish team continues to refuse the Nuke card.
Form OG
The twelfth team of the world ranking failed in the playoffs of CCT North Europe Series 2 last season, but immediately after it reached the semi-finals of BLAST Premier World Final 2022.
From a very fresh European team, they went to BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023, where they won two group victories over Team Liquid, but also lost to FaZe Clan twice.
However, OG did not do well in the Play-In, as the team was punished for stupid mistakes. As a result, the guys lost to Astralis, thus confirming their extreme instability and inability to cope with pressure.
Latest OG results:
- The victory over Team Liquid with a score of 2:0.
- Defeat from FaZe Clan with a score of 1:2.
- The victory over Team Liquid with a score of 2:1.
- Defeated by FaZe Clan with a score of 0:2.
- Defeated by Astralis with a score of 1:2.
Best OG cards:
- Overpass - 67% of wins.
- Inferno - 62% of wins.
Interestingly, the European team also refuses the Nuke card.
Sprout vs OG Match Statistics
The teams have not met before.
Prediction for the match Sprout — OG
I wouldn't consider a Sprout win for two reasons: 1) the team got off to a weak start into the new season, losing where it should have won; 2) although not everything works out for OG, the team as a whole is more stable and stronger if you look at the whole picture.
At the same time, the Danish team showed at the Major in Rio de Janeiro that it is too early for them to compete with representatives of the highest echelon. And I believe that nothing has changed in three months.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the OG team.
