Match Prediction: G2 Esports - Astralis | Counter-Strike (CS2)
StarLadder & i-League StarSeries Season 4G2 eSports played their first match in this tournament against Renegades and destroyed them with a score 2:0, having beaten on the maps de_cobblestone and de_mirage. It is worth to notice the Australians could win only 10 rounds in two maps. In general, G2 has been showing a strong enough play for a few months and is considered to be one one of the best teams in the world, holding the fourth place in the rate of HLTV. The confident play of the guys at ELEAGUE Major 2018 can’t be left unnoticed, where they have earned a “Legend” status by advancing to the playoffs with a statistic 3:0.
In its turn, Astralis has been falling into disarray for a long time and they had decided to make a replacement that, as the match against Team Liquid showed, produced its results. The team beat the reigning champions of cs_summit 2 with a score 2:1, having won on de_mirage and de_train. Let’s remind that guys had not received a “Legend” status and had mixed results online after the Major.
At the moment, teams have almost equal chances to win, however, G2 eSports looks a bit more preferable. Bookmakers’ odds say about his too - odds 1.95 are set for the victory of Astralis, while odds are closer to 1.85 for the triumph of G2.
