Match Prediction: Team Liquid - NiP | CS2 (CS:GO)
IEM Winter 2021Liquid and NIP will compete for the right to advance to the playoffs of IEM Winter 2021. How did the Swedes end up here, who can't play at all. Apparently someone from the line-up broke through again. In any case, you won't go far with such a game, and even the North Americans, who ruined the squad with one foot, seem to be favorites here.
Liquid form
The 12th world ranked team got off to a good start in IEM Winter 2021, closing OG with a very strong attack on Mirage. But the team did not cope with G2, although everything was close enough. Yet Liquid managed to surprise the world by defeating Astralis. About the humiliation of the Danes on Nuke, I generally keep quiet - this happens very rarely. Therefore, for me personally, North Americans deserve to go to the playoffs, at least for their overperformance.
Recent Liquid results:
- Victory over NIP with a score of 2: 1.
- Defeat against Heroic with a score of 1: 2.
- Victory over OG with a score of 16:12.
- Defeat from G2 with a score of 0: 2.
- Victory over Astralis with a score of 2: 0.
Best Liquid cards:
- Overpass - 100% wins.
- Mirage - 70% wins.
- Vertigo - 67% wins.
- Inferno - 50% wins.
Let me remind you that the team does not play on the Ancient map.
NIP form
The sixth team in the world ranking started with an unexpected victory over Astralis, which defies logical explanation at all. But fate put everything in its place, as the Swedish team flew away from Vitality. However, NIP is still in the championship as it once again tested fate and beat OG. However, the Swedes will not go far with such a game.
Recent NIP results:
- Defeat to Astralis with a score of 0: 2.
- Defeat against Liquid with a score of 1: 2.
- Victory over Astralis with a score of 16: 8.
- Defeat against Vitality with a score of 0: 2.
- Victory over OG with a score of 2: 1.
Best NIP cards:
- Ancient - 78% wins.
- Inferno - 71% wins.
- Overpass - 57% wins.
- Nuke - 55% wins.
Now the team is getting rid of Vertigo. But at the same time, the Swedes are very sad on Mirage and Dust 2.
Liquid - NIP meeting statistics
During the current season, the teams held three meetings:
- NIP victory at IEM Cologne 2021 with a score of 2: 1.
- Liquid's victory in ESL Pro League Season 14 with a score of 2: 0.
- Liquid's victory in BLAST Premier Fall Final 2021 with a score of 2: 1.
Now I can hardly believe even in the card from NIP.
Prediction for the match Liquid - NIP
You can see everything for yourself - a terrible tournament, but no less terrible game from the Swedes. How the NIP has not yet disbanded this composition is clear to one management. I was fed up with the game of these cripples. At the same time, North Americans are simply surprising, trying to loudly slam the door goodbye. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the Liquid team.
We are watching the final of the lower bracket. Whoever wins goes to 1/4. The loser goes home. And I think that after such games from both teams, we can say that Team Liquid is a clear favorite to win.
To the account of cards-Liquid-Pick-Mirade or Inferno. NiP-Pick: Overpass or Mirage. Desider-Dust 2 or even Nuke. I will say right away that the mappool is more towards the Americans.
I think that, without a doubt, liquid should pass at 1/4, and NiP, well, I think it's too early for them to go further, there are a lot of mistakes and only one device plays. And this is very little. Victory for Liquid.
Good luck to you:)
