Prediction on match CS2 Movistar Riders - Renegades

Movistar Riders and Renegades will meet in the first round of PGL Major Stockholm 2021. To be honest, of all the slag (TYLOO and Sharks), the Australians personally look to me the most plausible contender for a couple of victories. And do not forget that these guys know how to play on the LAN, which cannot be said about Movistar Riders. Although in this case I will still rely on the Spaniards, who seem to have found their game.

Movistar Riders uniform

The 16th World Ranked Team shot at IEM Fall 2021 Europe, finishing in a sensational fifth place. However, after that the team failed at BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2021, immediately losing to Virtus.pro. However, at their level, the Spaniards are still producing results, with three clean sheets to their credit. It remains only not to be arrogant, because Renegades can punish if something happens.

Recent Movistar Riders results:

• Victory over G2 with a score of 2: 1.
• Defeat against Virtus.pro with a score of 0: 2.
• Victory over Nemiga with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over Enterprise with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over OFFSET with a score of 2: 0.

Best Movistar Riders Cards:

• Inferno - 80% wins.
• Nuke - 76% wins.
• Vertigo - 63% wins.
• Overpass - 57% wins.

Spaniards have a simple relationship with Dust 2 - most often they just ban it.

Renegades form

The 40th team in the world rankings won the last two championships in their region, although they also managed to withdraw from ESEA Premier Season 38 Australia. Another thing is that after the summer break, the Australians did not play so often, so we have the right to remember IEM Cologne 2021. But there Renegades showed a cool game on Inferno, in particular, having closed NAVI on the map. Therefore, it is not for nothing that I consider the team to be the best among those who claim to be relegated.

Recent results Renegades:

• Victory over ORDER with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over LookingForOrg with a score of 3: 1.
• Victory over VERTEX with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over LookingForOrg with a score of 2: 1.
• Victory over LookingForOrg with a score of 3: 0.

Best Renegades cards:

• Mirage - 100% wins.
• Inferno - 100% wins.
• Nuke - 83% win rate.
• Vertigo - 80% wins.
• Dust 2 - 75% wins.

At the same time, the team practically does not play on the Overpass and Ancient maps.

Prediction for the match Movistar Riders - Renegades

I do not exclude that the Spaniards can create problems for themselves, leaving Inferno. In any other case, the team is the undisputed favorite, which is obliged to close Renegades. And I strongly doubt that the Spanish team will want to start like this at the big championship. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the Movistar Riders team.
