Match Prediction: sAw - HEET | Counter-Strike (CS2)

SAW and HEET will compete for the right to get into the grand finals of ESL Challenger League Season 40: Europe, where 1WIN is already waiting for the winner. For me personally, the French still seem to be the favorites, although I understand that SAW will not let go so easily. In addition, the statistics speak in favor of the Portuguese team, which will definitely be able to surprise.

SAW shape

The 43rd team in the world ranking failed in the playoffs of the recent OMEN WGR European Challenge 2022, losing to the Falcons. However, at ESL Challenger League Season 40: Europe, the Portuguese did well until they got to 1WIN. There was a defeat for SAW, from which the team clearly did not become weaker. Therefore, I have a feeling that the team will want to reach the grand final, at least try to do it.

Latest SAW results:

• Victory over Imperial with a score of 16:10.
• Defeated by Falcons with a score of 0:2.
• Victory over Entropiq with a score of 2:1.
• Victory over the Falcons with a score of 2:1.
• Defeat from 1WIN with a score of 1:2.

Best SAW cards:

• Nuke - 75% win rate.
• Ancient - 67% of wins.
• Inferno - 57% of wins.
• Vertigo - 56% of wins.
• Dust 2 - 54% win rate

Let me remind you that the Portuguese will not play Mirage.

Form HEET

The 21st team in the world ranking in the playoffs of ESL Challenger League Season 40: Europe is not performing as clearly as we would like. Moreover, the French manage to find problems for themselves out of the blue. For example, HEET with great difficulty got the last two victories, risking to fly out of the championship. And yet the team can show one or two cards.

Latest HEET results:

• Defeated by Apeks with a score of 0:2.
• Victory over Wisla Krakow with a score of 2:0.
• Defeat from 1WIN with a score of 0:2.
• Victory over ECSTATIC with a score of 2:1.
• Victory over Wisla Krakow with a score of 2:1.

Best HEET cards:

• Ancient - 80% of wins.
• Inferno - 75% of wins.
• Nuke - 67% of wins.
• Vertigo - 62% of wins.
• Dust 2 - 58% win rate

I note that the French have also not played on the Mirage map for a long time.

SAW vs HEET meeting statistics

Within the framework of the last season, the teams held three meetings, all of which were left to the SAW players.

Prediction for the match SAW — HEET

I see no reason to comment on ESEA, since the championship has turned into a marathon, where not the strongest wins, but the more experienced. In this match, I do not see a favorite, if you start from previous meetings. Therefore, here I would recommend betting on Total on cards 2.5 more.
