Match Prediction: OG - FURIA | Counter-Strike (CS2)
IEM Rio 2022 Challengers StageOG and FURIA will play in the third round of IEM Rio Major 2022 Challengers Stage. The Brazilian team played very cool in the last match, breaking 00NATION in the derby.
In turn, OG in general looks cool, even though the team managed to lose to fnatic in the last round. However, even without this defeat, ruggah's wards seem to be a little stronger than the opponent.
In advance, I would like to warn against talking about home stands - they do not help in any way, but rather play in the red. Plus, FURIA has been in a fever for a couple of weeks now, and I don't recognize this command.
Form OG
The fourteenth team in the world ranking performed very well in the recent IEM Road to Rio 2022 Europe RMR B, where they got three wins and suffered one loss.
Yes, and further OG could go to the “legends”, but in the very ending was defeated by Heroic.
As for the start at IEM Rio Major 2022, here the European team managed to defeat Grayhound Gaming. However, after a couple of hours, OG was unable to cope with fnatic, but in general they still showed an excellent result.
Latest OG results:
- Victory over Falcons with a score of 16:12.
- The victory over the Outsiders with a score of 2:1.
- Defeat from Heroic with a score of 1:2.
- Victory over Grayhound Gaming with a score of 16:5.
- Lost to fnatic with a score of 13:16.
Best OG cards:
- Ancient - 75% of wins.
- Dust 2 - 71% win rate
- Overpass - 67% of wins.
- Vertigo - 60% of wins.
- Inferno - 57% of wins.
At the same time, the European team continues to refuse the Nuke card.
FORM FURIA
The tenth team in the world ranking played terribly at the IEM Road to Rio 2022 Americas RMR, where they lost to Evil Geniuses in the second round and were left without the status of a “legend”.
Then the Brazilian team woke up a little to get two victories and still get to the home major.
However, at the start of IEM Rio Major 2022, the team managed to suffer a shameful defeat from BIG. And there FURIA literally gave up her game. Well, at least after the Brazilians closed 00NATION in the derby, they still look strange.
Latest FURIA results:
- Lost to Evil Geniuses with a score of 14:16.
- Victory over O PLANO with a score of 16:2.
- Victory over paiN Gaming with a score of 2:0.
- Defeated by BIG with a score of 16:19.
- Victory over 00NATION with a score of 16:6.
The best FURIA cards:
- Ancient - 100% win rate.
- Nuke - 80% win rate.
- Mirage - 75% of wins.
Let me remind you that the Brazilian team has traditionally abandoned the Dust 2 map.

Prediction for the match OG — FURIA
Interestingly, the bookmakers draw FURIA as the favorite of the fight. In such a situation, it is even more interesting to consider the chances of OG, because, in my opinion, such a team has every chance to upset the local stands.
There is a feeling that the Brazilians will gain, but due to their style it is very difficult for them to play with European teams. In turn, wards of ruggah are showing themselves on the positive side, as well as they can count on two or three cards.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the OG team.
