Match Prediction: Astralis - Cloud9 | CS2 (CS:GO)

The teams faced for the last time at Blast Pro Series - Copenhagen 2018 and Astralis was stronger there, who beat its opponent with a score 16:14 on de_inferno.

The team Astralis comes to the tournament as the main favorite as they managed to win Intel Extreme Masters XIII - Chicago and to place third at BLAST Pro Series: Copenhagen 2018 in November. The guys made it to ECS Season 6 only due to the first place in the European qualifiers where they lost only one map out of 18.

In its turn, Cloud9 can’t boast of such results and they visited only BLAST Pro Series: Copenhagen 2018 in November where they held the fifth place. In the middle of November, the team determined the roster and signed a contract with KioShima, after which the guys placed fifth at Esports Championship Series Season 6 - North America, due to which went to the final stage.

Bookmakers consider Astralis to be an obvious favorite of the match and offer odds for their victory in the sum of 1.2, while Cloud9’s triumph is evaluated as 4.2. We agree with such distribution of power and will also prefer the Danish roster.

We advise you to pay your attention to the market “rounds handicap +6.5 for Cloud9” with odds 1.87 as the team has started playing much better after the replacement.
