Prediction on match CS2 G2 Esports - Nemiga Gaming

G2 and Sprout will meet at the start of DreamHack Masters Winter 2020 Europe. But the German team is unlikely to be able to defeat a more high-class rival.

Form G2

The seventh team in the world rankings since the end of IEM Beijing-Haidian 2020 Europe have been minding their own business. For example, huNter- managed to get married, while NiKo was probably happy for his relative. But it is worth saying a few words about the latest results of G2. The Balkan-French started their last tournament with a 1: 2 defeat to NiP. However, then the team pulled together and issued a streak of three victories in a row over North (2: 1), mousesports (2: 1) and FaZe Clan (2: 0). But in the semifinals of the event, the team could not cope with Natus Vincere (1: 2), limiting themselves to only bronze medals.

Best G2 cards:

• Mirage - 80% wins.
• Nuke - 62% wins.

However, the team is unlikely to want to tempt fate by picking Overpass (0% of wins out of five attempts). Also, G2 should take a close look at Train, where problems have been exposed lately.

Sprout Form

The 19th rating team seems to be tired of getting a hat. At the start of BLAST Premier Fall 2020 Showdown, the Germans lost to Complexity (0: 2), winning only eight rounds in two maps. Later the team went to ESEA MDL Season 35 Europe, where they lost to Endpoint in the grand final (2: 3). Well, the tip of the iceberg was the defeat to ALTERNATE aTTaX (0: 2) in the framework of Merkur Masters Season 2. And with such results, the team will have no chance at the big championship.

Sprout Map Pool:

• Nuke - 88% wins.
• Vertigo - 81% wins.
• Dust 2 - 74% win rate.
• Train - 59% wins.

At the same time, Sprout does not play on Overpass, which adds to the advantage of G2.

Personal meetings statistics

Despite the abundance of tournaments, the teams have never met during the current season.

Prediction for the match G2 - Sprout

CS has been giving us more and more surprises lately. However, Sprout, given the latest results, is simply not able to beat the Balkan-French. The Germans have big problems with morale, which has noticeably shaken after the last defeats. And in this match, I see only one outcome - the victory of the G2 team with the odds of 1.24.
