Match Prediction: fnatic - FaZe | CS2 (CS:GO)
ELEAGUE CS:GO Premier 2018The last time when the collectives met happened approximately three weeks ago at the championship ESL One Cologne 2018, where FaZe Clan won over their opponents by the score of 2:1. Then NiKo and Co turned out to be stronger on the maps “Overpass” and “Inferno”, while the team JW got “Mirage” into their active.
Fnatic do not look very stable ultimately, but it is easily explained - within two last months Richard «Xizt» Landström and William «draken» Sundin joined the team, and also the in-game leader and coordinator has changed. During this period of time the team participated in Esports Championship Series Season 5 - Finals and ESL One: Cologne 2018, but they achieved nothing more than the 5-6 places at any of the tournaments. Now the guys hold the eighth position in the world rating according to HLTV and keep going to getting out of Ten Best, as just a couple of months ago they held the third position. During ELEAGUE CS:GO Premier 2018 the guys lost 2:1 against Natus Vincere as it had been expected.
At the moment, FaZe Clan are in a very good shape and several days ago Olofmeister got out of the inactive. The roster holds the third place of the world rating thanks to good results of the last month - the team got the 3-4 place at ESL One: Cologne 2018, Esports Championship Series Season 5 - Finals and ESL Pro League Season 7 - Finals, and also became the world champion according to ESL One: Belo Horizonte 2018. The first match of this championship resulted in their sensational loss against Mousesports by the score of 2:1.
Bookmakers think that FaZe Clan are favourites of the competition and set the coefficient of their win equal to 1.4, while Fnatic's triumph is evaluated as 2.7. We agree with the idea that GuardiaN and Co have more chances to win, but we do not agree with the difference between the coefficients as the match against Mousesports proved that FaZe Clan have a lot of problems after Olofmeister joined them. Olof performed pretty well himself, but rain completely disappeared from the map.
