Match Prediction: Movistar Riders - forZe | CS2 (CS:GO)
CCT North Europe Series #2Movistar Riders and forZe will meet in the first round of the CCT North Europe Series #2 playoffs. No one doubts that the Spanish team has big problems.
In turn, forZe continues to rebuild its roster, but even in this form, the team is much more preferable than Movistar Riders in terms of gameplay. To put it bluntly, I don't believe in Spaniards who fail match after match at all.
Therefore, here I would look towards the Russian team, which has good chances of winning in this match.
Movistar Riders Uniform
The 25th team in the world ranking failed at ESL Challenger Rotterdam 2022 and Elisa Invitational Fall 2022, as well as at ESL Masters Spain Season 12, Movistar Riders lost to SAW.
On the other hand, the Spanish team has not yet been eliminated from the ESL Challenger League Season 43 Europe, although it is very close to it. To put it bluntly, the team has no game at all. And I very much doubt that the guys will suddenly wake up.

The 39th team in the world ranking failed in the playoffs of the European Development Championship 6, showing a poor performance in the quarterfinal match against K23.
Then the Russian team continued to play at the ESL Challenger League Season 43 Europe, where, however, they already managed to lose to SAW. As for the performances at CCT North Europe Series 2, forZe managed to suffer two defeats here.
And yet, the team is a little more interesting than the opponent, who, to put it mildly, has failed all the tournaments over the past four months.

Prediction for the match Movistar Riders — forZe
Rounding off what has been said, forZe must collect his thoughts and do his job, because in fact the team is much stronger than the Spaniards. In turn, Movistar Riders has been showing a very bad game for more than a month, and all the changes did not help the team.
If we talk about maps, then the Spanish team cannot boast of anything at all, although they will probably build on Inferno. Well, it is logical for Jerry and company to choose Mirage, where Movistar Riders never had a sensible attack.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the forZe team.
