Prediction on match CS2 Savage - Sprout

Savage and Sprout will meet as part of the third round of Thunderpick Bitcoin Series 2022. While the Swedes were tasting the updated Spirit roster, the Danish-German team was resting, trying to find their mistakes. And yet, it is difficult for me to single out a favorite in this game, because the teams are similar to some extent.

Form Savage

The 40th team in the world ranking has already reached the playoffs of Elisa Invitational Winter 2021, where, by the way, the opponent has problems. At the same time, the Swedish team started in the Pinnacle Winter Series 2 Regionals, having tested the new Spirit roster. It turned out well, because Savage looked good against the former TIER-1. And yet the team is still far from ideal, at least in terms of stability.

Savage's latest results:

• Victory over Unique with a score of 2:1.
• Defeat from Nemiga with a score of 0:2.
• Victory over ECSTATIC with a score of 2:0.
• Lost to Insilio with a score of 3:16.
• Defeat from Team Spirit with a score of 1:2.

Best Savage cards:

• Ancient - 77% of wins.
• Mirage - 67% of wins.
• Inferno - 67% of wins.
• Vertigo - 58% of wins.

At the same time, the Swedish team does not play on the Nuke map.

Sprout shape

The 20th team in the world ranking cannot yet stand out with something special. So you think, the team starts to gain momentum, and a day later it loses to Eternal Fire, barely getting ten rounds in two maps. And yet Sprout has some potential, sometimes showing a good game. And at the start of the season, the team has already managed to play with Savage, having obtained a victory.

Latest Sprout results:

• Victory over Dignitas with a score of 2:0.
• Victory over Endpoint with a score of 2:1.
• Defeated by K23 with a score of 0:2.
• Victory over GamerLegion with a score of 2:0.
• Defeat from Eternal Fire with a score of 0:2.

Best Sprout cards:

• Dust 2 - 85% of wins.
• Ancient - 78% of wins.
• Inferno - 76% of wins.
• Overpass - 67% of wins.
• Vertigo - 62% of wins.
• Mirage - 56% of wins.

At the same time, the team adjusts the choice of cards for the opponent.

Savage vs Sprout match statistics

As part of the current season, the teams had one meeting - at Pinnacle Winter Series 1, the victory went to Sprout (2:1).

Savage vs Sprout Prediction

There is no doubt that the Swedes have a much stronger Ancient, while Sprout boasts the same on the Dust 2 map. There are questions about Overpass and Inferno, but they will also go to the deader for sure. Therefore, here I suggest betting more on Card Total 2.5, since each team has one strong card, which is the first choice.
