Forutsigelse av kamp: Cloud9 - G2 Esports | CS2 (CS:GO)
ESL Pro League Season 17Cloud9 and G2 will play in the semi-finals of the upper bracket of the ESL Pro League Season 17 group stage. The winner of this fight will go to the final of group A, where they will meet with someone from the Outsiders-fnatic pair. In addition, the winner will definitely get a ticket to the championship playoffs, which is not bad.
I think that there is not enough intrigue in this match. Although Cloud9 got a very strong victory over Evil Geniuses, but objectively the North Americans didn't play there at all. Moreover, the failures of the Russian team, which mediocrely merged in Katowice, are still fresh in my memory.
In turn, G2 continues to move in kings. I can’t say that we saw a champion team on Nuke, but in general, the series against Eternal Fire once again proved the advantage of the guys.
Therefore, in this case, I would look at the victory of NiKo and the company. Yes, the coefficient is small, but I believe in such a scenario more than thinking and guessing for a card from Cloud9, which may not exist at all.
Form Cloud9
The thirteenth team of the world ranking visited IEM Katowice 2023. Moreover, the Russian team started its way to the Play-In stage quite well, where they won two victories over IHC and ENCE to get into the main part of the competition.
However, in the group stage, Cloud9 performed a miracle of miracles. And okay, the defeat from NAVI can be explained, but the team also managed to lose to IHC, showing a shameful game.
And yet, at the start of ESL Pro League Season 17, the guys broke through, as they spent half an hour on the Evil Geniuses map and went to rest. However, it was not possible to wash off the last shame, so for now we are looking closely.
Latest Cloud9 results:
- Victory over IHC with a score of 16:5.
- Victory over ENCE with a score of 2:1.
- Lost to Natus Vincere with a score of 0:2.
- Lost to IHC with a score of 0:2.
- Victory over Evil Geniuses with a score of 2:0.
Best Cloud9 Maps:
- Mirage - 67% of wins.
Do not forget that the Russian team continues to stand its ground and still refuses the Nuke card.
Form G2
The first team of the world ranking recently became the winner of IEM Katowice 2023, losing only one map during the championship - and even that in the grand final against the Danes from Heroic.
Then the European team went to the closed qualifiers for BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR, where they continued their winning streak and got their hands on a free slot for the RMR tournament.
And at the start of the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 17, G2 managed to extend their winning streak to sixteen matches, this time beating Eternal Fire.
Latest G2 results:
- Victory over Heroic with a score of 3:1.
- Victory over PGE Turow with a score of 16:5.
- Victory over LDLC with a score of 16:5.
- Victory over Tricked with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over Eternal Fire with a score of 2:0.
Best G2 Maps:
- Anubis - 100% wins.
- Nuke - 100% win rate.
- Inferno - 83% of wins.
- Mirage - 71% of wins.
- Ancient - 67% of wins.
In turn, the European team traditionally refuses the Overpass map.
Match statistics Cloud9 — G2
As part of the last season, the teams held one meeting - at IEM Road to Rio 2022 Europe RMR A, the victory went to Cloud9 (16:13).
Prediction for the match Cloud9 — G2
I think that the teams will pick Mirage and Inferno, and leave Anubis for the finish line. However, I don't see any chances for the Russian team as such, as G2 remains at the forefront.
In addition, although Cloud9 was able to confidently beat Evil Geniuses, it has not yet been able to make them forget the failure at IEM Katowice 2023. So there is a feeling that the guys will again be forced to play second number, which the Clouds cannot do.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the G2 team.
