Match Prediction: G2 Esports - NaVi | CS2 (CS:GO)
IEM Cologne 2021So we got to the last match of IEM Cologne, in which Navi will play against G2. Both teams started the tournament from the group stage, and the playoffs from the semi-finals.
G2
The French beat Astralis in the semifinals. Oh, what a match it was. After the victory on the first map of the opponent Nuke, there was a feeling that it would be an easy 2-0 for G2, but the Danes were able to turn the meeting and moved the match to the third map. Inferno ended 16-14, where the end game from the Kovacs brothers Niko and Hunter played a decisive role. Throughout the game, the teams made a lot of mistakes, but it was interesting to watch. In this tournament, G2 beat Gambit, BIG and CoL.
Navi
Navi easily beat Faze in the semi-finals 2-0 with no chance. Throughout the tournament, the team proves its strong individual form and deservedly ended up in the final. Throughout the championship, none of the players drops out and everyone consistently makes their frags and ends in favor of the CIS team.
The format of the tournament is bo5, which means that we can know the cards in advance, these will be Dust 2, Inferno, Mirage, Nuke, Anchient. We will definitely not see Overpass and Vertigo, and Ancient teams can leave on the decisive map.
Outcome
Navi are in such a shape that they do not care which map they play, they all have an advantage in all respects. The team has been on its way to a big title for a long time and, looking at G2, this is not the kind of team that can put Navi to pick up the trophy, there is too much marriage in their game. We can even see a replay of their last final, where Navi won 3-0.

Prediction for the IEM grand final: Cologne 2021 between G2 Esports and NAVI
G2 Esports played very ambiguously yesterday with Astralis, gave up their Dust 2, and at the decisive Inferno they made it to 16:14. In general, G2 has problems with the map pool specifically for the best of 5 series. They don't play: Overpass and, most likely, Ancient, while NAVI performed well on these maps. The advantage of NAVI is the excellent Nuke and s1mple. What Sasha did in the semifinals with FaZe Clan is something!
The only question here is whether NAVI will win with a score of 3: 0 or 3: 1. Natus Vincere will definitely be banned by Vertigo, and G2 Esports should abandon Overpass, but at the same time, if they play Ancient it immediately 1: 0 in favor of NAVI, a lot will depend on the sequence of card picks. I am inclined to see Nuke as my pick at NAVI, Dust 2 from G2 Esports.
Bookmakers give 2.86 odds for G2 Esports and 1.445 for NAVI. Most likely, there will be 3: 0 for NAVI - 3.64 ratio, 3: 1 - 3.44 ratio, 3: 2 - 4.48.
Prediction: NAVI will confidently beat G2 Esports with a score of 3: 1 by maps - coefficient 3.44
