Match Prediction: FaZe Clan - FURIA | CS2 (CS:GO)
IEM Brazil Rio 2023FaZe Clan and FURIA will play in the upper group stage semi-finals of IEM Rio 2023 to see who deserves to make it to the play-offs and who will go to the lower net.
It is clear that the Brazilian team is too motivated for this championship, but there are some things you cannot get past. These include the FaZe Clan who are unlikely to succumb to FURIA.
As for the Europeans, they somehow incredibly managed to reboot themselves after a busy week in Copenhagen. So here I would lean on the logical victory of the FaZe Clan team.
FaZe Clan's form
The second team of the world ranking played terribly in the main stage of BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR A, where they were marked by defeats to Natus Vincere, Bad News Eagles and MOUZ.
However, in the Last Chance Qualifier, the European squad managed to outplay Aurora Gaming and Cloud9 to claim the last slot in the majors and save themselves from failure.
As for Long Songpeg in the group stage of IEM Rio 2023, here the European squad experienced no problems in the game against 9z, giving up only three rounds. And judging from this match, the team can count on a painless exit to the play-offs.
FaZe Clan's latest results:
- A 0-2 defeat to Bad News Eagles.
- 1-2 loss to MOUZ.
- 2-0 win over Aurora Gaming.
- Beat Cloud9 by a score of 2-0.
- 16-3 victory over 9z.
FaZe Clan's best scores:
- Overpass - 75% wins.
- Inferno - 73% wins.
- Ancient - 67% wins.
- Mirage - 62% wins.
- Nuke - 57% wins.
Let's not forget that the European squad has long refused to use Vertigo.
FURIA uniforms
The eleventh team in the world rankings managed to fall at the recent BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2023 Americas, losing in the quarterfinals to EG Black.
However, the Brazilian team quickly made amends at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Americas RMR, where they outplayed TeamOne, Evil Geniuses, Team Liquid and paiN Gaming, taking a place in the "legends".
Here, too, the boys were able to cope with fnatic at the Long Conpeg of the group stage of the home IEM Rio 2023. Yes, FURIA almost gave the game away, but still managed to defend theirs in overtime.
FURIA's latest results:
- A 16-6 victory over TeamOne.
- A 16-13 win over Evil Geniuses.
- A 2-1 win over Team Liquid.
- Beat paiN Gaming 2-1.
- 19-15 victory over fnatic.
FURIA's best scores:
- Inferno - 80% wins.
- Mirage - 67% wins.
- Vertigo - 67% wins.
- Ancient - 60% wins.
In turn, the Brazilian team has ceased to appear on the Overpass map.
Meeting statistics FaZe Clan - FURIA
In the current season, the teams have played one meeting - FaZe Clan (2-0) has won at ESL Pro League Season 17.
FaZe Clan vs FURIA.
In such a match, the Brazilian team has no chance. Here we are talking about the game in a studio format, where the stands will not be set against FaZe Clan. And for the rest, it's a little too early for FURIA to be marking a sensation, because the team's structure is insufficient.
In turn, the European team can be proud of a free slot in the play-offs, but for a place in the semifinals will likely have to play again with Cloud9.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on FaZe Clan to win.
