Cloud9 Will win

Cloud9 and FORZE will meet in the first round of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B. Just recently, the teams played each other in the final of the BetBoom Playlist Urbanistic 2023, and then the Cloud9s had no chance to shut out their rivals.

It seems that nothing will change now, as Cloud9 has managed to gain excellent form. In turn, FORZE also leave a good impression, but for now the team cannot fight with the giants on a regular basis.

Therefore, I'd lean on Cloud9 to win this game logically - they must build up their lead from the opening rounds to avoid going to a prolonged BO3.

Cloud9's form

The world number five team reached the finals of the recent ESL Pro League Season 17, where they were unable to compete against FaZe Clan. However, Cloud9 went on to win the BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2023 Europe with a strong performance.

At the same time, the Russian team qualified for IEM Dallas 2023, suffering only one defeat at the hands of Astralis.

Already towards the end of the whole story, Cloud9 became the BetBoom Playlist Urbanistic 2023 champion, beating Falcons, GODSENT and FORZE without cards given away in the course of the championship.

Cloud9's latest results:

A 2-1 win over Ninjas in Pyjamas.
Victory over BIG with a score of 2-1.
1-2 defeat of Astralis.
Beat OG 2-0.
2-0 win over FORZE.

Cloud9's best scores:

Vertigo - 92% wins.
Mirage - 85% wins.
Overpass - 62% wins.
Ancient - 60% wins.

Let's not forget that the Russian team continues to reject Nuke maps.

FORZE uniforms

The sixteenth team of the world ranking played well at the recent ESL Pro League Season 17 where they managed to play-offs, but dropped out after a close game with FaZe Clan in the quarterfinals.

The Russian squad went on to play in the BetBoom Playlist Urbanistic 2023, where with victories over Bad News Eagles, Virtus.pro and MOUZ reached the final.

Yet there FORZE showed nothing against Cloud9, limiting themselves to silver medals.

FORZE's latest results:

A 0-2 defeat to Monte.
2-0 win over Bad News Eagles.
Beat Virtus.pro 2-0.
Beat MOUZ 2-0.
Defeat by Cloud9 by a score of 0-2.

FORZE's best scores:

Ancient - 71% wins.
Overpass - 64% wins.
Nuke - 62% wins.
Anubis - 57% wins.
Mirage - 50% wins.
Inferno - 50% wins.

In turn, the FORZE team has traditionally refused to play Vertigo.

Cloud9 - FORZE meeting statistics

In the current season the teams have played one meeting - Cloud9 won 2-0 on BetBoom Playlist Urbanistic 2023.

Forecast for the match Cloud9 - FORZE

An interesting encounter as both teams were able to reach their peak form in March. However, the stakes are now getting higher as the tickets for the majors are on the line.

If we evaluate the situation logically, Cloud9 are superior to their opponent by any measure. And in the last game, Cloud9 managed to score strongly even on the troubled Inferno, which inspires confidence.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Cloud9 to win.
