Prediction on match CS2 Extra Salt - paiN Gaming

Extra Salt and paiN have already lost their chances of winning the trophy, remaining only in the race for fifth place. Interestingly, here we see two group stage winners who failed to back up their playoff results. However, in this situation, Extra Salt has a little more opportunities, which this season has not yet lost to its unfortunate colleagues from paiN.

Extra Salt Form

The 18th team in the world rankings shot in the group stage cs_summit 8, scoring two wins and finishing in first place. However, the team relaxed too much, having lost first the semi-final, and then the game in the lower bracket. Moreover, it can be seen that Extra Salt clearly overestimated itself after a sharp start, while the rivals saw through all the tactics and preparations of the team.

Recent Extra Salt results:

• Victory over Triumph with a score of 2: 0.
• Beat Big Chillin 2: 0.
• Defeat from FURIA with a score of 1: 2.
• Victory over Secret Club with a score of 2: 0.
• Defeat from EXTREMUM with a score of 1: 2.

Best Extra Salt Cards:

• Nuke - 75% wins.
• Overpass - 71% wins.
• Vertigo - 71% wins.
• Train - 68% wins.
• Inferno - 65% wins.
• Dust 2 - 64% wins.

I don't think we should wait for the Mirage card. However, in the meantime, the team should think about banning Dust 2.

PaiN form

The 32nd team in the world rankings is in exactly the same position, so everything above is great for the paiN situation. But if the opponent lost to FURIA and EXTREMUM, then the Brazilians by some miracle could not cope with O PLANO. And it seems to me that the team squeezed a lot, clearly not coping with the heat of such a significant championship.

Recent results paiN:

• Victory over Bad News Bears with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over Evil Geniuses with a score of 2: 1.
• Victory over O PLANO with a score of 2: 0.
• Defeat against Liquid with a score of 0: 2.
• Defeat from O PLANO with a score of 1: 2.

Best paiN cards:

• Dust 2 - 76% wins.
• Inferno - 71% wins.
• Nuke - 67% wins.
• Mirage - 60% wins.
• Vertigo - 57% wins.
• Train - 50% wins.

In this match, we are unlikely to see Overpass, which the Brazilians practically do not play on. Another point is that in other aspects the teams are equal.

Extra Salt meeting statistics - paiN

During the current season, the teams held five meetings, and paiN has never defeated Extra Salt, winning only two maps out of thirteen.

Prediction for the match Extra Salt - paiN

I can hardly believe that, with such a story behind him, paiN will suddenly take and beat Extra Salt. Well, too many stars in the sky must converge for the Brazilians to shoot and re-read the opponent. At the same time, the only real opportunity to fight is only on two maps - Dust 2 and Inferno. However, I doubt that we will see two cards at once that fit paiN. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the Extra Salt team to win.
