Match Prediction: Evil Geniuses Black - Team One | CS2 (CS:GO)

EG Black and TeamOne will meet in the group stage of ESL Challenger League Season 43: North America. Both teams have already guaranteed a place in the playoffs, so the only fight here is for a good seeding.

On the other hand, the teams have not yet lost in the group stage of the championship, which also holds some intrigue. And yet, in this match, I would look towards the Brazilians, who are a little more stable at this level, and the statistics of the meetings speak in their favor.

Although, you can not write off EG Black, since these guys have already marked themselves with a sensational defeat of MIBR.

Form EG Black

The 63rd world ranked team recently took fourth place at ESEA Autumn 2022 Cash Cup 4 North America, suffering losses to Complexity and MIBR.

However, at the group stage of ESL Challenger League Season 43: North America, the North Americans got six wins in a row in just a week and secured a ticket to the playoffs.

And here you have to watch, because EG Black can get tired and throw rounds, or the team will go all the way to get out of the first line.

Prediction for the match EG Black vs TeamOne

The Brazilian team has the main advantage - the Dust 2 map. The North Americans will refuse it in the second turn, but TeamOne can take a risk and play ahead of the curve.

In other respects, EG Black hardly stands out anywhere, with the exception of Inferno, where the team has played a lot in recent weeks. And yet, the Brazilians look a little more confident, especially since the statistics speak in their favor.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on TeamOne to win.
