Match Prediction: NiP - Vitality | CS2 (CS:GO)
ESL Pro League Season 16Ninjas in Pajamas and Vitality will play in the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 16. An interesting confrontation, since one of the favorites will lose points at the start of the championship.
However, I personally like Vitality now much more than the Swedes, who are already bored with their monotony. Yes, Ninjas in Pajamas can surprise with its speed, but I don't believe in more than one map from hampus.
Also, ZywOo is in wild form, judging by the last match. And on this, Vitality can really pull the series.
Uniform Ninjas in Pajamas
The sixth team of the world ranking left a lot of questions following the results of performances at BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022. On the one hand, the Swedish team failed in the group where they got only one victory, and then swam.
On the other hand, Ninjas in Pajamas took two Play-In wins and made it to the fall season finals. Nevertheless, the team plays very monotonously, and every dog already knows that hampus is sneaking behind the smoke and two flash drives.
And I think that Vitality will easily read the ideas of Ninjas in Pajamas, but as such, the Swedish team does not have a plan B.
Latest Ninjas in Pajamas results:

- Victory over Evil Geniuses with a score of 2:1.
- Lost to Team Liquid with a score of 0:2.

Best Ninjas in Pajamas cards:
- Inferno - 71% of wins.
- Vertigo - 67% of wins.
- Nuke - 60% win rate.
- Overpass - 56% of wins.
Do not forget that the Swedish team usually refuses the Dust 2 map.
Form Vitality
The seventh team in the world ranking, on the contrary, seemed to have a cool start at BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022, where they got two victories. However, then the Danish-French team lost to Astralis, and ended there.
In the Play-In, we saw the first difficulties of Vitality, as the team barely closed G2, and then lost to NAVI and G2, flying past the finals from BLAST.
Nevertheless, at the start of the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 16, zonic's men managed to open up, getting a confident victory over Endpoint. But the most important thing is that the same ZywOo woke up, who once decided the fate of matches alone.
Vitality's latest results:
- Defeated by Astralis with a score of 17:19.
- Victory over G2 with a score of 2:1.
- Lost to NAVI with a score of 0:2.
- Lost to G2 with a score of 1:2.
- Victory over Endpoint with a score of 2:0.
Best Vitality cards:
- Dust 2 - 62% of wins.
- Overpass - 57% of wins.
- Inferno - 57% of wins.
- Nuke - 50% win rate.
- Vertigo - 50% of wins.
It is worth recalling that the Danish-French team is refusing the Ancient map.

Prediction for the match Ninjas in Pajamas — Vitality
I admit that we will see three maps, but lately we have been very unlucky with Total. However, in terms of the game, the wards of zonic still seem more interesting than Ninjas in Pajamas with early aggression and the absence of other ideas. Therefore, here I would recommend betting on the victory of the Vitality team.
