Match Prediction: Bad News Eagles - Movistar Riders | Counter-Strike (CS2)
CCT Central Europe Series Finals #1Bad News Eagles and Movistar Riders will play in the CCT Central Europe Malta Finals 1 semi-finals. I don't know how the Spanish team hasn't collapsed yet, but reaching the playoffs is a real sensation for such a dead squad.
However, Bad News Eagles does not have positive moments, but against the backdrop of Movistar Riders, Kosovars seem to be the obvious favorites, which should crush the Spaniards with confidence.
In general, I would not think about the Spanish team, because they have absolutely nothing to catch in the playoffs. So here I would look at the logical victory of the Bad News Eagles.
Bad News Eagles Uniform
The 21st team in the world ranking did not show anything at the start of the season, reaching the CCT South Europe Series 2 grand final, and also failing the closed qualifier for IEM Brazil 2023.
Nevertheless, at the group stage of CCT Central Europe Malta Finals 1, the Kosovar team managed to get two controversial, but still victories over Eternal Fire and forZe.
Perhaps, despite all the difficulties and contradictions, Bad News Eagles has good chances, because the opponent is better to omit this moment.

Movistar Riders Uniform
The 34th team of the world ranking also failed at all previous championships, suffering a series of defeats in the OMEN WGR Challenge 2023, CCT South Europe Series 2 and ESL Challenger League Season 44 Europe.
Moreover, the Spanish team did not play at all, limiting itself to some intermediate victories that meant nothing.
Nevertheless, Movistar Riders performed some kind of miracle at the group stage of CCT Central Europe Series Finals 1. And okay, the victory over Sprout, but how the team beat Team Spirit is a big mystery for me personally without a logical answer.

Prediction for Bad News Eagles vs Movistar Riders
I would like to believe that logic will return to the chat in this semi-final. Well, I don’t believe in the Spanish team at all, which didn’t have any game for half a year, but suddenly it started to win.
However, Bad News Eagles plays much brighter. And even with their problems, the Kosovar team has great potential, at least to win this semi-final.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the Bad News Eagles team.
