Match Prediction: FURIA - paiN Gaming | Counter-Strike (CS2)
BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2022 North AmericaFURIA and paiN will fight for the right to go to the BLAST Premier Spring Final 2022. I'm not sure if there is any intrigue in this match, because currently FURIA is two heads stronger than everyone who competes in North America and Brazil. Therefore, as much as I would not like otherwise, paiN is unlikely to be able to impose a fight.
FORM FURIA
The eighth team of the world ranking literally raced through the BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2022 North America bracket, confidently outplaying both ATK and GODSENT. Moreover, it seems that the Brazilian team does not really try, but simply acts according to the situation and shows its level. And now there is no doubt that FURIA will win, once again showing the difference between itself and all other competitors in the region.

I note that the team continues to refuse the Dust 2 map.
Pain form
The 34th team of the world ranking unexpectedly performs strongly in the BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2022 North America, because paiN won a victory over Team Liquid in the quarterfinals. It seemed that the team had done the impossible, and then stop. However, the day before, the Brazilians had no chance to close MIBR, which was the kryptonite of rikz's wards. And yet, I must say that FURIA is still on a different level, so I don’t see any chances for paiN as such.

However, since then there have been reshuffles in the teams.
Forecast for the match FURIA — paiN
I don't think that FURIA will just stop half way. Still, now the team is in its best shape over the past year, showing too confident a game to count on a sensation. And paiN is unlikely to be able to open up on Vertigo, where the opponent plays just as well. Therefore, here I would recommend betting on the victory of the FURIA team with a score of 2:0.
