Match Prediction: NiP - Astralis | CS2 (CS:GO)
BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR BNinjas in Pyjamas and Astralis will play in the fourth round of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B to see who buried dev1ce's career.
All kidding aside, the Danish outfit look in even better shape than Ninjas in Pyjamas. Moreover, Ninjas in Pyjamas seems to be dead, and even The International is not sure how they will show themselves in BO3.
Still, I would not look towards the lineup of Aleksib, who with his ideas ruined another roster. So here I would lean on team Astralis, who already had the experience of beating Ninjas in Pyjamas at the Long Convergence of the season.
Ninjas in Pyjamas form
The world number 22 team also failed in the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 17, immediately after which they crashed out of the semi-finals of the BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2023 Europe.
Ninjas in Pyjamas also featured in a close qualification for IEM Dallas 2023, where they beat OG but were defeated by Cloud9 and fnatic.
As for Long Soppeg on BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B, here the European team was able to cope with Eternal Fire, but then suffered losses from Vitality and FORZE, falling into an expected pit.
Ninjas in Pyjamas' latest results:
- Defeat to Cloud9 by a score of 1-2.
- Defeat to fnatic by a score of 1-2.
- Victory over Eternal Fire with a score of 16-11.
- 13-16 defeat to Vitality.
- 12-16 defeat by FORZE.
Best Ninjas in Pyjamas:
- Nuke - 75% wins.
- Mirage - 69% wins.
- Vertigo - 64% wins.
Don't forget that the Ninjas in Pyjamas team often gives up Anubis maps.
Astralis form
The sixteenth ranked team in the world played horribly in the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 17, despite their attempts to improve in the very end.
Nevertheless, the Danish team confidently made it through the closed qualification for IEM Dallas 2023 where they managed to beat Team Spirit and GODSENT, but also Cloud9.
However, on BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B, Astralis once again had problems which resulted in defeats to Vitality and Eternal Fire. Thankfully, the Danes were able to shut down Team Spirit the day before, though so far it's been a slim one.
The latest results from Astralis:
- A 2-1 win over GODSENT.
- A 2-1 win over Cloud9.
- A 14-16 defeat to Vitality.
- Defeat to Eternal Fire, 7-16.
- 2-1 win over Team Spirit.
Astralis top scorers:
- Ancient - 83% wins.
- Overpass - 78% wins.
- Nuke - 71% wins.
- Inferno - 56% wins.
- Vertigo - 50% wins.
In turn, the Danish team continues to deny Anubis.
Ninjas in Pyjamas - Astralis meeting statistics
In the current season the teams have played one meeting - on BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023 the victory went to Astralis (2-1).
Ninjas in Pyjamas vs Astralis
Last time the teams played Overpass, Mirage and Ancient. If with the first one everything is clear, then the rest of them, including Inferno and Nuke, I'd give the money to the Danes.
Moreover, Astralis is much more comfortable to play in BO3 because different players are included on several maps. As for Ninjas in Pyjamas, so far the game has not been seen.
So in this case, I would recommend betting on an Astralis team win.
