Match Prediction: FURIA - Team Spirit | CS2 (CS:GO)
IEM Cologne 2022FURIA and Team Spirit will meet in the semifinals of the lower bracket of the IEM Cologne 2022 group stage. Hand on heart, even with this victory over the Outsiders, I do not believe that the Brazilian team has returned to the game.
In turn, Team Spirit continues to stick to the perspective and some kind of character, even though the team was unable to cope with FaZe Clan, in places they simply did not play out their situations.
In any case, the Russian team looks much more confident if you look at the distances, just as it is high time for the Brazilians to take a break.
FORM FURIA
The eighth team in the world ranking has failed at all the latest championships, failing to qualify from the group at Roobet Cup 2022 and ESL Challenger Valencia 2022 at DreamHack.
As for the performances of the Brazilian team at IEM Cologne 2022, at the start of the group stage, they lost to Astralis without a chance, once again showing a monstrous game. And yet, the day before, FURIA managed to cope with the Outsiders, although she still looked weak and tired.

Team Spirit Uniform
The world ranked eleventh team got off to a great start at IEM Cologne 2022 in terms of a naked finish, with two wins over Complexity and 00NATION at the Play-In stage.
In addition, the Russian team burst into the group stage of the tournament, as they outplayed Team Liquid in their first match on the character. It's a shame that Team Spirit then lost to FaZe Clan without taking a single card. And yet the team still shows great promise, playing much more actively than the future opponent.

Prediction for the match FURIA — Team Spirit
I can't believe that the Brazilian team will suddenly start playing. Still, FURIA hasn’t been successful for more than a week, as well as the team’s shooting potential has clearly dipped.
Against this background, Team Spirit looks much more interesting, although the coefficients put the "dragons" in the category of small outsiders. To put it bluntly, it's hard for me to throw away all the failures from FURIA, which were enough to bury the team.
In turn, the Russian team seems to be showing character, trying to squeeze out the maximum. In addition, the “dragons” perfectly adjust right during the matches, and you don’t have to guess for a long time with the Brazilians.
Therefore, here I would recommend betting on Team Spirit to win.
