Match Prediction: 00 Nation - Grayhound Gaming | CS2 (CS:GO)
ESL Pro League Season 1700NATION and Grayhound Gaming will meet in the Last Chance group stage grid for ESL Pro League Season 17. Interestingly, the teams have already played each other in this championship, with the Aussies winning then.
Of course, here I am more inclined to choose Grayhound Gaming which has had a good championship so far. Moreover, the Australian team, as already noted, has managed to close the Brazilians in the bottom net, which is a good help.
In turn, the 00NATION team, by some miracle, are still afloat - I can hardly call their stay in Malta any other way. And from the last game it was clear that the Brazilian team is not properly played, and it will not get any better.
So here I would take a closer look at a win for Grayhound Gaming. I admit that anything can happen in the rematch, and 00NATION is skating heavily on the Inferno map. However, the Australian team is much more coordinated and reliable.

The 47th ranked team in the world played awfully during the closed qualification for the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 America RMR, where only by some miracle managed to go on after two defeats at the start.

It would seem that the song has died, and the start of the last match suggested identical thoughts. But miraculously 00NATION managed to defeat Rooster, thanks to which. Although, with a game like that, there's no reason to believe the Brazilians will be able to continue.

Forecast for 00NATION vs Grayhound Gaming
An interesting match in which a lot will depend on mistakes. However, from what I've seen, the Brazilian team doesn't look like a favorite to me yet.
On the contrary, 00NATION makes a lot of extra moves, and in simple situations manages to set themselves up. I will not say anything about the cards, as there is a rough parity.
However, for me personally, the Australian team can make another small sensation, the more so we have seen the current level of Brazilians' game.
Therefore, in this case I would recommend to bet on the victory of Grayhound Gaming team.
