Prediction on match CS2 HellRaisers - OpTic Gaming

The last time when the collectives met happened approximately three months ago during the European qualifier of ESL One New York 2018 and then the guys from HellRaisers managed to win over the opponents by the score of 2:0.

HellRaisers came to the championship in full and showed very good game - the collective defeated North and Gambit eSports, but they couldn't win over Team Liquid. The guys from the team getting to the next stage wasn't lucky to have good opponents. In total, the roster holds the 16 place in the world rating and they turned out to be the best team of CIS Minor Championship - London 2018 last month.

OpTic Gaming did a great leap in their game but the guys don't look so dangerous for top teams. Starting with June, the guys have already got the second place at DreamHack Open Summer 2018 and Europe Minor Championship - London 2018, and they can make a lot of troubles for the favourites especially if we take into account the format up to one victory. At the first match OpTic Gaming turned out to be weaker than Team Liquid, defeating TyLoo and Virtus.Pro.

The bookmakers think HellRaisers are a questionable favourites of the competition and set the coefficient of their win equal to 1.6, while the triumph of OpTic Gaming is evaluated as 2.3. We will also lean towards bondik and Co.
