Prediction on match CS2 HellRaisers - Nexus Gaming

HellRaisers and Nexus will meet in the third round of Shadow League Season 1. I think that the match is quite intriguing, since HellRaisers cannot beat Nexus during four meetings. In addition, the team is clearly in an emotional pit, from where it never got out.

HellRaisers form

The 34th world ranked team continues to tickle your nerves. At the start of Shadow League Season 1, the team lost to GamerLegion (1: 2), only in the second round having won a victory over Unique (2: 1). Along the way, HR failed at Snow Sweet Snow 1 Regionals, losing to Trident (0: 2) and Winstrike (1: 2). In addition, the team almost left the qualifier for DreamHack Open January 2021 Europe, losing to forZe (0: 2). But two extremely hard wins over StylDunow (2: 1, 2: 1) allowed HellRaisers to get into the tournament.

The best cards of HellRaisers:

• Train - 72% wins.
• Dust 2 - 65% wins.
• Inferno - 54% wins.
• Nuke - 50% wins.
• Overpass - 50% wins.

I do not argue that the statistics are very impressive, however, in recent matches HR has significantly worsened the performance.

Nexus Form

The 48th team in the world rankings confidently started in Shadow League Season 1, beating Budapest Five (2: 0). However, in the second round, the Romanian team did not go well, as Lyngby Vikings proved to be stronger in the decisive moments of the meeting. Nevertheless, the team made a confident start in qualifying for the European Development Championship 2, beating Project Eversio (2: 0).

Best Nexus Cards:

• Mirage - 71% wins.
• Overpass - 67% wins.
• Train - 65% wins.
• Vertigo - 50% wins.

It is likely that in this match we will miss Nuke, which Nexus has a hard time playing.

Personal meetings statistics

Only at the end of last season, the teams had four face-to-face meetings. And all the matches were played by Nexus.

Forecast for the match HellRaisers - Nexus

I'm not sure if HR was able to solve all of its problems. As the recent matches show, the team continues to play through itself. In addition, I am still convinced that very soon the train will go free sailing. The Nexus has been playing consistently for months in a row. Therefore, I propose to bet on the victory of the Nexus team with the odds of 2.12.
