Match Prediction: NaVi - G2 Esports | CS2 (CS:GO)
StarLadder Berlin Major 2019Both rosters are in the top ten CS:GO teams: NAVI places 6th and G2 holds the 8th place. There is one significant difference between Natus Vincere and G2 Esports. Natus Vincere made it to The New Legends Stage due to their merit at the previous Major championship, while G2 was getting through The New Legends Stage. The French played at the initial stage pretty well and passed it with a score 3-1. G2 achieved victory over such teams as TYLOO, DreamEaters, and forZe. They fought well in the match with mousesports but as a result, lost with a score 1-2.
Everyone knows the interesting fact that Natus Vincere loves losing first matches in an shape at many tournaments. We have the following: G2 has already warmed-up, is in a good shape and proved that they can create a good struggle and NAVI, in turn, loses the first matches. “So, will we bet on G2?” - you will ask and it will be a nice question! We can disappoint you. Everything is not as obvious as it might look like at a first glance. It’s not worth to forget that Natus Vincere is on high morale, which might make a positive impact on their result. And one of the best individuals plays in NAVI, which also increases their chances to prevail. Besides Natus Vincere can watch all matches of G2, detach interesting moments and play on the least favorite map of their opponents, for example. The French, in turn, can’t follow the recent matches of NAVI because they were a pretty long time ago.
Summing up, we will stop on the fact that Natus Vincere is a more obvious favorite to win the match, however, it’s not worth to bet on them a lot because everything might happen in a bo1 match. Odds on NAVi are equal to 1.55 and it is pretty reasonable and good in this case.
