Match Prediction: NaVi - Vitality | CS2 (CS:GO)
BLAST Premier World Final 2022NAVI and Vitality will play in the group stage of BLAST Premier World Final 2022. A very interesting meeting, not even in terms of the fight for the TOP-1 player of 2022, but in terms of the current conditions of the two teams.
First, Born to Win faced a difficult choice. Now NAVI needs to decide whether to take risks on Vertigo or Anubis. Moreover, we know that for some time the Ukrainian team trained on Vertigo, and npl will definitely play there.
On the other hand, Vitality has not been successful since the victory over EPL S16, although the team was frankly lucky there too. Now the Danish-French team is in bad shape, and it is unlikely that the guys will be able to successfully complete the season.
In general, the situation is debatable, but for some reason it seems to me that the Born to Win have a sufficient understanding of how the opponent plays. From this, a slight advantage in favor of NAVI.
Form NAVI
The fourth team in the world rankings played poorly at the recent IEM Rio Major 2022, where they made it to the playoffs with great difficulty. But already in the quarterfinals, the Ukrainian team lost to FURIA, having become tritely confused in front of a crowd of Brazilians.
From the recent NAVI took part in BLAST Premier Fall Final 2022, where, however, nothing happened again. And after the starting victory over Fluxo, the team lost in a row to Team Liquid and, wait a minute, Ninjas in Pajamas.
In general, the situation is difficult. But in three weeks, the Born to Win could come up with something and figure out which card to leave as the sixth choice. Yes, and experiments with npl should bring a little confusion.
Latest NAVI results:
- Victory over BIG with a score of 2:0.
- Defeat from FURIA with a score of 1:2.
- Victory over Fluxo with a score of 2:0.
- Lost to Team Liquid with a score of 1:2.
- Lost to Ninjas in Pajamas with a score of 1:2.
The best NAVI maps:
- Mirage - 64% of wins.
But if earlier the Ukrainian team banned Vertigo, now we have to think about Anubis.
Form Vitality
The ninth team of the world ranking managed to fail at the BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2022 Europe, having already lost to the Danes from Astralis in the semifinals.
Then the team came to IEM Rio Major 2022, where they made it to the "legends" with great difficulty. Well, here Vitality was completely blown away, having obtained only one victory over FaZe Clan.
And for some reason it seems to me that the team will not invent anything new again, continuing to hope for the ZywOo game. Therefore, in this case, I would not blindly believe in Vitality.
Vitality's latest results:
- Victory over OG with a score of 2:1.
- Lost to NAVI with a score of 21:25.
- Victory over FaZe Clan with a score of 16:6.
- Lost to MOUZ with a score of 17:19.
- Lost to ENCE with a score of 0:2.
Best Vitality cards:
- Vertigo - 60% of wins.
- Inferno - 60% of wins.
- Mirage - 50% of wins.
But if earlier Vitality banned Ancient, now Anubis is added.
Statistics of meetings NAVI — Vitality
As part of the current season, the teams held five meetings:
- NAVI's victory at PGL Major Antwerp 2022 Europe RMR A with a score of 2:0.
- NAVI's victory at BLAST Premier Spring Final 2022 with a score of 2:0.
- NAVI's victory at BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022 with a score of 2:0.
- Vitality's victory at ESL Pro League Season 16 with a score of 2:1.
- NAVI's victory at IEM Rio Major 2022 with a score of 25:21.
And in each case, the teams played on the Mirage map.
Prediction for the match NAVI — Vitality
It is clear that Vitality's advantage will be the potential pick of Vertigo against the backdrop of reshuffles in the NAVI pool. However, the rest of the "Born to Win" are ahead, despite all their numbers.
Moreover, the Danish-French team definitely does not stand out in terms of condition against the background of "Born to Win", so there is not much point in talking about problems.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the NAVI team.
