Prediction on match CS2 Gambit Esports - HAVU

Gambit and HAVU will meet as part of the Elisa Invitational Fall 2021 quarterfinals. I don't think the Russian team agreed to play in the tournament in order to lose ¼. At the same time, I understand that Gambit will definitely not give all its all 100%, since PGL Major Stockholm 2021 is ahead. However, HAVU, in my understanding, continues to be a “dead” team.

Gambit Form

The second team in the world ranking recently took first place in the IEM Fall 2021 CIS, accelerating during the championship. And with this success, the team flew into the "Legends" of the PGL Major, giving themselves an extra week of rest. I have nothing else to say, since the last game against NAVI answered many questions regarding the set of conditions.

Recent Gambit results:

• Beat Unique with a score of 16: 4.
• Victory over INDE IRAE with a score of 4: 0.
• Victory over Virtus.pro with a score of 4: 0.
• Defeat Entropiq with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over NAVI with a score of 2: 0.

Best Gambit Cards:

• Overpass - 100% wins.
• Vertigo - 86% wins.
• Mirage - 80% wins.
• Ancient - 50% wins.

I have no doubt that the team will once again ban the Nuke card. Although lately Gambit hasn't played Dust 2 that often.

HAVU form

The 41st team in the world ranking performed well in the Swiss Elisa Invitational Fall 2021, losing only once, and the Danes from Copenhagen Flames got in the way there. Yes, and in the first round of the playoffs, HAVU trampled on DBL PONEY, which somehow did not play at all. However, I still do not believe in the revival of this team, which for me personally exhausted itself in the spring.

Recent HAVU results:

• Lost to AGO with a score of 0: 2.
• Victory over Apeks with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over Lyngby Vikings with a score of 2: 0.
• Win over 1WIN with a score of 2: 1.
• Victory over DBL PONEY with a score of 2: 0.

Best HAVU cards:

• Dust 2 - 78% wins.
• Inferno - 71% wins.
• Nuke - 62% wins.
• Overpass - 55% wins.

And if the Vertigo collective does not play in principle, then there are still problems on Mirage and Ancient.

Gambit - HAVU meeting statistics

During the current season, the teams held one meeting - at the Pinnacle Cup 2021, the victory went to Gambit (2: 1).

Forecast for the match Gambit - HAVU

Despite the fact that the last time Gambit played on Dust 2 was in the EPL group stage, the team is confident in this map. And on Inferno, the Russian team does not seem as weak as the numbers show. In this regard, I see no chance for HAVU, which can beat someone there at TIER-2.5, but will still fail against the top rivals. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the Gambit team with a score of 2: 0.
