Match Prediction: Lyngby Vikings - Fiend | CS2 (CS:GO)

Lyngby Vikings and Fiend will compete for the right to make it to the semifinals of the European Development Championship Season 5. The winner of this match will play with someone from the DBL PONEY - SKADE pair, which by definition does not give great chances. Nevertheless, in this particular episode, I am ready to look at the Bulgarian team in the context of a favorite.

Lyngby Vikings uniform

The 39th team in the world rankings failed two weeks ago at Malta Vibes Knockout Series 1, losing in the quarterfinals. Next, the Danes went to conquer the Pelaajatcom Series Fall Finals 2021, which they did well, winning the championship. Now Lyngby Vikings will try to prove their level in the playoffs of the European Development Championship Season 5, where the team made it, not counting the technical defeat from Young Ninjas in the group.

It is worth saying that in most cases the team has problems with Dust 2.

Fiend shape

The 29th world ranked team recently qualified for the IEM Fall 2021 Europe closed qualifier. At the same time, the team made it to the playoffs of the European Development Championship 5 without any problems, beating not only Budapest Five, but also 1WIN. In general, there is a feeling that the team is coming out of hibernation and is gradually feeling its game.

• Victory over LDLC with a score of 2: 1.
• Lost to LDLC with a score of 0: 2.
• Victory over Apeks with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over Copenhagen Flames with a score of 2: 0.

We will definitely miss Vertigo in this meeting, as well as Nuke, which will probably be banned by the second order.
