On June 16, Sprout and HUMMER will fight against each other. The winner will get the opportunity to fight in the decisive match for reaching the main stage of ESL Pro League Season 16 with a prize pool of $835,000. For this reason, the upcoming match between Sprout and HUMMER will be quite important, although the teams have the right to make mistakes.
Sprout Game Uniform
At the moment, Spiidi and his comrades from Sprout are on the 30th place in the list of the best CS:GO teams according to HTLV. The last two matches in which the Europeans fought show that their game form leaves much to be desired. The REPUBLEAGUE team failed to overcome the Bad News Eagle in a Bo3 match without taking a single card from the latter. The team performed with the same success in the fight against Eternal Fire. A little earlier, Sprout showed an excellent performance at Elisa Invitational Spring 2022. In the main stage, they beat Finest, Apeks and Tricked and made it to the playoffs. The problem is that REPUBLEAGUE is a more solid championship than the Elisa Invitational Spring 2022 and the prize pool is €120,000 instead of $50,000 like the Elisa Invitational.

Game form HUMMER
Brazilian players play in the HUMMER roster. Of the most famous, only SHOOWTiME can be named. The team is currently ranked 63rd in the HLTV top, but in recent matches the players played only against weak Brazilian opponents, and Sprout is a rival of a different level, which should be taken into account. In addition, the esportsmen played their last matches on May 25, and it was, by the way, under the Sao Caetano Esports tag.

Conclusion
Although HUMMER showed good results in recent matches, the esportsmen performed on stage 3 weeks ago, which can be considered irrelevant information. In addition, their rivals are clearly not up to the level at which the Sprout are, with which the Brazilians will soon have to compete. The Europeans, in turn, took part in the match quite recently and fought against strong opponents compared to HUMMER. I think that it makes sense to bet on Handicap -1.5 cards in favor of Sprout. HUMMER flew to Europe to participate and they will still have a jetlag, which will affect the playing form in any way. The team most likely will not be able to take a single card. The teams may surprise and the result will turn out to be completely different, but the probability of an exact score of 2-0 in favor of Sprout is still high.
Final bet: Exact score 2-0 in favor of Sprout/Handicap -1.5 cards in favor of Sprout
