Match Prediction: Team Liquid - G2 Esports | CS2 (CS:GO)

Team Liquid and G2 will meet as part of the BLAST Premier World Final 2022 grand final. Interestingly, the teams have already played each other at the recent tournament in Copenhagen, in the group, and then the North Americans got a clean sheet victory.

However, in a few weeks, G2 clearly found its game and reached the peak of its form. However, a word can also be put in for Team Liquid, which has been on the rise a little longer.

In general, these teams are worth each other, while we are waiting for a juicy final. If we talk about intrigue, then there is simply no favorite here. On the other hand, the North American team is still a little more stable at a distance.

As for G2, the team is experiencing obvious problems in complex combinations, but sometimes individual players wake up and manage to win. This is me to the fact that in the team plan Team Liquid is a little more interesting and reliable for me, which is why I would start dancing in this final.

Form Team Liquid

The eighth team in the world ranking at the recent BLAST Premier Fall Final 2022 declared itself, having managed to beat G2 and NAVI in the group. However, in the semi-finals the North American team failed to cope with Heroic.

Now Team Liquid has come to BLAST Premier World Final 2022 to get a victory over the Outsiders, but at the same time lose to FaZe Clan and go only to the quarterfinals.

However, in the playoffs, the team continued to demonstrate excellent form, first defeating NAVI, and then shutting down OG. It is clear that there are chances for the "liquid" to win, but the opponent is quite good.

Latest Team Liquid results:

• Defeat from Heroic with a score of 1:2.
• The victory over the Outsiders with a score of 2:1.
• Defeat from FaZe Clan with a score of 1:2.
• Victory over Natus Vincere with a score of 2:1.
• Victory over OG with a score of 2:1.

The best maps of Team Liquid:

• Mirage - 90% of wins.
• Inferno - 71% of wins.
• Ancient - 67% of wins.
• Anubis - 67% of wins.

It is worth recalling that the North American team has not played on the Nuke map for a long time.

Form G2

The twelfth team of the world ranking did not impress much at BLAST Premier Fall Final 2022. Moreover, the European team made it to the playoffs quite easily, having beaten Fluxo. Well, there the guys were knocked out by the Danes from Heroic, which, in general, is predictable.

So at the start of BLAST Premier World Final 2022, G2 had a misfire, as the team lost to FaZe Clan. On the other hand, NiKo and company made the playoffs, eliminating the Outsiders from the race.

Well, here G2 finally failed, because the guys beat both Vitality and took revenge on FaZe Clan. However, it is too early to draw conclusions, since the tag itself has not won for many, many years.

Latest G2 results:

• Defeat from Heroic with a score of 1:2.
• Defeat from FaZe Clan with a score of 1:2.
• The victory over the Outsiders with a score of 2:0.
• Victory over Vitality with a score of 2:1.
• Victory over FaZe Clan with a score of 2:0.

Best G2 Maps:

• Nuke - 100% win rate.
• Inferno - 50% win rate.
• Mirage - 38% of wins.
• Ancient - 33% of wins.
• Vertigo - 25% of wins.

In turn, the G2 team still refuses the Overpass map.

Prediction for the match Team Liquid — G2

Despite the excellent form of G2 in recent matches, I'm still not sure about these guys. Primarily, the game is built on individual skill, while Team Liquid also boasts team interactions.

However, a lot in this match will depend on the confrontation between snipers, where m0NESY is ahead on paper. However, in other duels, I would prefer "liquid", which is generally more interesting.

Plus, we have statistics that do not speak in favor of G2. Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Team Liquid to win.
