Prediction on match CS2 Team K23 - Gambit Esports

K23 and Gambit will play the second slot in the MIDNITE Nine to Five 7 grand final. But it should be said that K23 made it through the entire championship, while the opponent got privileges in the quarterfinals.

Form K23

The 38th team in the world ranking is in great shape. The team has not lost five matches in a row, having managed to beat not only ex-ETHEREAL, but also Dignitas, Copenhagen Flames (twice), AVEZ, as well as ALTERNATE aTTaX. At the same time, in the quarterfinals of MIDNITE Nine to Five 7 the team managed to beat Endpoint (2: 0). But do not forget that the result was largely made by buster, who won back the stand-in.

Best K23 cards:

• Overpass - 63% wins.
• Dust 2 - 62% wins.
• Inferno - 58% wins.

At the same time, the team does not play on Vertigo, and in general, all cards lose according to the opponent's indicators.

Gambit Form

The sixteenth team in the world ranking recently lost to Virtus.pro (1: 2) in the semifinals of DreamHack Open December 2020. However, at the start of MIDNITE Nine to Five 7, the team routinely dealt with Dignitas (2: 0) without experiencing serious problems.

Best Gambit cards:

• Overpass - 94% wins.
• Train - 87% wins.
• Inferno - 80% wins.
• Vertigo - 75% wins.
• Dust 2 - 73% wins.
• Mirage - 65% wins.

And with such statistics, the team will be comfortable getting to the grand final of the championship.

Personal meetings statistics

During the current season, the teams had six face-to-face meetings. Interestingly, Gambit won absolutely all BO3s with a score of 2: 0. But it's worth giving credit to K23, who won the last head-to-head match in BO1 format with a score of 16:14.

Prediction for the match K23 - Gambit

I believe that Gambit itself wants to end this long season on a positive note. But don't discount K23, which features interesting Counter Strike. But I'm not sure that the team will be able to cope with their colleagues, given not just the difference in the class, but a whole abyss in preparation. Therefore, I propose to bet on the victory of the Gambit team with the odds of 1.24.
