Match Prediction: FaZe Clan - Evil Geniuses | CS2 (CS:GO)

FaZe Clan and Evil Geniuses will meet at the group stage of BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022. What can we say about the North American team? Yes, nothing special. Evil Geniuses has played terribly and will continue to play despite the lineup changes.

In turn, there are no questions for the FaZe Clan team, since we are the leader of the world ranking and simply the champion of many big championships.

Therefore, there is no point in counting on a sensation and looking for intrigue, since Evil Geniuses still needs to figure out how to get to the Major.

FaZe Clan form

The first team of the world ranking became the winner of IEM Cologne 2022, where they lost only two maps, and even those in the grand final. Then the team went on a break, as they were exhausted and tired after winning the PGL Major Antwerp 2022.

Well, after the rest, FaZe Clan managed to get their hands on the SteelSeries Nova Invitational 2022. Yes, this tournament does not make any sense in terms of competition. Still, the team managed to warm up, even though they didn't play on default maps.

Do not forget that the European team refuses the Vertigo card.

Evil Geniuses Form

The 217th team in the world ranking failed completely in the first half of the season. Judge for yourself – the North American team did not make it to the Major, but at the same time, they were the last ones at ESL Pro League Season 15 and BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2022 North America.

There have been line-up changes here that I don't think will do much better. As a result, we have a very mediocre team, to which there is not even any attention from the outside. Well, in the end - RUSH will play in the group.

Evil Geniuses latest results:

• Victory over Party Astronauts with a score of 2:0.
• Lost to Team Liquid with a score of 1:2.
• Victory over Carpe Diem with a score of 2:1.
• Defeat from GODSENT with a score of 0:2.
• Defeat from GODSENT with a score of 0:2.

There is no need to talk about maps, since Evil Geniuses has not appeared on our radars for a long time. However, at that time the North American team refused the Ancient map.

Prediction for the FaZe Clan vs Evil Geniuses match

I don't know what to say about a North American team that hasn't played for over three months. And the updated line-up does not inspire confidence, and against the backdrop of FaZe Clan, I want to shed a tear. Let's see what Evil Geniuses will show in the distance. Well, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the FaZe Clan team with Handicap by rounds (-4.5).
