Match Prediction: FURIA Academy - Solid | CS2 (CS:GO)
CBCS 2023 Season 1FURIA Academy and Solid will meet in the CBCS 2023 Season 1 bottom group stage final. Interestingly, the teams have already met in the Long Stage of the championship and the youngsters from FURIA Academy won.
This time the situation is not much different, and Solid in fact remains a very average team by the standards of their region. All in all, FURIA Academy should take a chance and go to the play-offs.
On the other hand, I personally don't expect much from Solid. The team isn't that interesting to watch in the play-offs. So here I would rely on FURIA Academy to win.

The 116th ranked team in the world has been failing in the CCT South America Series 7 and Pinnacle Cup Brasil #1 recently, losing just about every other game.
But since then, the Brazilian side have reached the semi-finals of 1XPLORE Latin America Cup 1 with victories over MIBR Academy, W7M Academy and Paquetá.
As for their performance in the group stage of CBCS 2023 Season 1, here FURIA Academy proved stronger than Solid and INTZ but also suffered one close game loss to Sharks Esports.

Form Solid
The 115th ranked team in the world rankings back in May managed to take second place in the TG Rush Autumn 2023, but then failed to show anything in the play-offs of CCT South America Series 7, Ledge and in the BESTIA quarter-finals.
Already in June, the Brazilian squad began to regain some of their lost ground, notably by winning the RedZone PRO League 2023 Season 3. At the same time, Solid almost qualified for the Dust2 Brasil Liga Season 1 play-offs, picking up ten wins in the group stage.
As for the CBCS 2023 Season 1 performance, here the team started with a loss to FURIA Academy, but went on to beat MIBR Academy and RED Canids, which is already good.

FURIA Academy - Solid match statistics
In the current season, the teams have met once - FURIA Academy (2-0) won at the Long CBCS 2023 Season 1 group stage.
FURIA Academy vs Solid
Last time the teams played Mirage and Ancient. And if in the first one everything was close, in Ancient the academy took out their rivals in front of their feet.
I do not think that Solid have any reserve, as even statistically the team lags behind the youngsters. What's more, a defeat in a face-to-face encounter would certainly put pressure on the team.
Therefore I'd recommend to bet on FURIA Academy to win.
