Match Prediction: Young Ninjas - BIG | CS2 (CS:GO)
CCT West Europe Series 4Young Ninjas and BIG will meet in the semi-finals of CCT West Europe Series 4. Looking at it this way, the young Swedes might even surprise if they don't have any replacements.
And here it all comes down to BIG, as the team is actually playing at 50%, and without that they continue to struggle. In general, I personally expect a little sensation, because the Young Ninjas look very good as far as the game is concerned.
It's clear that the German team remains the clear favourite, but who knows what kind of mood they'll be in tonight. So I'd go with the Young Ninjas card here.
Young Ninjas form
The 85th ranked team in the world has hardly played anywhere lately, and if it has played anywhere, it has done poorly. For example, the Swedes managed to fail at the MistGames Heroes of Lofoten 2023, not even competing with their peers.
However, Young Ninjas confidently went through the main stage of the CCT West Europe Series 4, where they suffered only one defeat at the hands of Let us cook and easily got into the play-offs.
As for the play-offs, the Swedes are already coming off wins over Apeks and Looking4Org which is a statement in itself.
Young Ninjas' latest results:
- A 1-2 loss to Let us cook.
- 2-1 win over HAVU.
- 2-0 win over Sangal.
- Beat Apeks 2-1.
- Beat Looking4Org 2-0.
Young Ninjas top scorers:
- Vertigo - 71% wins.
- Ancient - 60% wins.
- Overpass - 60% wins.
- Mirage - 50% wins.
- Nuke - 50% wins.
At the same time the Swedish team has been steadily giving up Anubis.
Form BIG
The eighteenth team in the world rankings managed to fall in the play-offs of BetBoom Playlist Freedom 2023, as already in the quarterfinals was defeated by Aurora.
The German side finished only fourth in the CCT 2023 Online Finals 1 and also failed to make the play-offs of CCT North Europe Series 5 and Ledgeil Astralis Talent in the first round.
BIG, on the other hand, decided to catch up in CCT West Europe Series 4, where they have already outplayed Illuminar and Astralis Talent on their way to the semi-finals.

- A 0-2 loss to 9INE.

Young Ninjas vs BIG
Young Ninjas have shown a lot of promise, which is a shame to get into the finals. On the other hand, BIG are the more experienced team, whichever way you look at it.
Still, the German team likes to make mistakes and give their opponents chances, and the day before the boys were lucky that Astralis Talent were playing with a coach in the slot.
So in this case I would recommend betting on the Forum on map (+1.5) for the Young Ninjas team.
