Match Prediction: Monte - GamerLegion | CS2 (CS:GO)
BLAST Paris Major 2023Monte and GamerLegion will meet in the third quarter-final of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023. A very heresy pairing that no one could ever have foreseen in the play-offs.
But it turns out that the Ukrainian team risks reaching the semifinals of such a big championship for the first and last time that one couldn't even dream of.
I will continue to stand my ground and say that GamerLegion is an overrated team, and in front of a huge crowd, the European squad will probably stop playing at all. Therefore, I would lean on the Monte team to win here.
Also, don't forget that you can take part in the betting contest and win cool skins. The first draw is just around the corner and everyone has a chance to compete for valuable prizes.
Monte uniforms
The world number thirteen team recently won the CCT West Europe Series 3 title and also managed to make it through to the indoor qualification for ESL Challenger Katowice 2023.
However, the main breakthrough came during the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage, where the Ukrainian squad managed to pick up three wins in five games, including beating Fluxo, TheMongolz and paiN Gaming.
Moreover, Monte took a shot at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 where they lost only to Vitality, but with victories over FURIA, fnatic and Natus Vincere they sensationally made it to the play-offs.

Monte - GamerLegion vs GamerLegion
In terms of playmaking parameters Monte are two heads ahead of their rivals. If the Ukrainian side doesn't falter in front of the stands, they will simply hand GamerLegion a leg up. As the classics say, they will outplay them.
As for the Europeans, we have nothing to say, because they were already so lucky during the championship. But now GamerLegion must show their true level that is definitely not worthy of the semifinals.
Therefore, in this case I would recommend to bet on the Monte team's victory.
