Prediction on match CS2 Sprout - forZe

Sprout and forZe will meet at DreamHack Open January 2021 Europe for a chance to stay in the tournament. However, the losing team will definitely say goodbye to the championship, stating their own inability to compete at such a high level.

Sprout Form

The 28th team in the world ranking after winning two championships in a row decided to slow down. At first, the team failed in the ESL European Championship Winter 2020, losing in the semifinals to Movistar Riders (1: 2). Now the team arrived at DreamHack Open January 2021 Europe, where they could not cope with Gambit (0: 2) in the first match. However, it should be admitted that the match was equal, and Sprout can beat its future rival with such baggage.

Best Sprout Maps:

• Nuke - 82% wins.
• Dust 2 - 69% win rate.
• Vertigo - 62% wins.
• Mirage - 50% wins.

At the same time, the team will definitely not tempt fate and will remove Overpass.

ForZe form

The 22nd team in the world ranking performed well in qualifying, beating Anonymo (2: 0) and Hellraisers (2: 0). However, at the tournament itself, the level of opponents is much higher, which resulted in the defeat of the team from Team Spirit (1: 2). Admittedly, forZe showed signs of life. However, this roster is still very raw, which is why I do not see the team in the playoffs.

Best forZe cards:

• Mirage - 56% wins.
• Train - 50% wins.

For the rest, the team has big problems that have been rolling in drag since the fall.

Personal meetings statistics

At the end of last season, the teams had three meetings:

• ForZe wins at Eden Arena Malta Vibes Cup 10 with a score of 2: 1.
• Sprout victory in Nine to Five 4 with a score of 2: 0.
• Sprout's victory in ESEA MDL Season 35 Europe with a score of 16: 1.

But do not forget that the line-ups of the teams have undergone major changes.

Prediction for the match Sprout - forZe

The German team seems to be a more harmonious mechanism, which has already managed to play in the new composition. forZe continues to experiment with the composition, trying to find the optimal formula. While the Russian team is at the stage of construction, I propose to bet on the Sprout team with a coefficient of 1.75.
