Match Prediction: IVY - Zorka | Dota 2
Dota 2 Champions League Season 15On the second game day of Dota 2 Champions League Season 15, such teams as IVY and Zorka will play against each other. Experts from bookmakers believe that this meeting will be almost equal, and although IVY is the favorite of the meeting, this is only nominally, since the coefficient on them is 1.80, while their opponents have a coefficient equal to 1.95. Based on this, the chances of IVY winning, according to the bookmakers, is 52%, which you will agree is not too much and outweighs.
I propose to look at the game form of the meeting participants in order to understand whether it is possible to catch a coefficient on Zorka here or whether one should choose some alternative market for betting.
Game form IVY
The IVY roster was completed quite a long time ago, namely on February 26th. Then Bektur 'Max' Kulov joined the team and closed the position of the offlaner. Since then, the team has taken part in various events and, with the exception of the victory at ESL Meisterschaft Spring 2022, has shown rather mediocre results in tournaments. The team now and then took 7-8 and 9-12 places in the championships and there was no exception in the European qualification for The International.
The team lost in the first match in the lower bracket and left the fight for the coveted invite to this year's main Dota 2 tournament.
In September, the team played only in three matches, one of which fell on the qualifying round for The International, and two of them at ESL Meisterschaft Autumn 2022. The victory was won only in the fight against Entropy, and the fight against DGG Esports and Team Jinx was lost.
From the game IVY it is noticeable that the players love Tiny, ars, Enchantress, Weaver and Mirana. These are not the most meta heroes in the current realities, and for this reason, the team may be outside the zone of achieving victory in the next match.

Zorka game uniform
Zorka is the academy of the Nigma team. The team was assembled only recently and has not yet had time to show itself on the professional Dota 2 stage. The players were able to appear in the list of participants in the Dota 2 Champions League thanks to one victory in the open qualification, after which their opponents received a technical defeat in the final. So even to call their entry into the Dota 2 Champions League through the open qualifiers can hardly be called full-fledged.

Conclusion
As we can see, IVY has a lot more experience and, despite their recent results shown earlier, the victory will still have to come in the hands of IVY. Zorka, in fact, a stack of guys, gathered recently and did not have time to show anything, and hoping for their victory in the upcoming match would be simply illogical and ridiculous.
The odds given by experts from bookmakers are quite good for IVY's victory. This is quite enough to make a bet, but we should not exaggerate, since we are dealing with a group stage and a stage that is far from the limits of the Tier-1 class.
Final bet: IVY to win at odds of 1.80
Prediction for the match between IVY and Zorka within this championship in the group stage. Neither team has yet started in the tournament; IVY at the last qualification for The International 11 lost to DGG Esports 1:2 and were eliminated. It is very interesting whether they will retain the composition, or already here we will see some permutations.

In August, the teams played for the only time among themselves, then IVY defeated Zorka with a score of 2:1. Zorka's hi-pts player is their carry - dizzying; klassnokruto is of course a dubious character, but this team definitely has the potential to take cards from more famous teams.
I think that IVY will be on tilt after such a performance at the qualifiers in Western Europe, it would be necessary to wait for what roster they will play, but the prematch is definitely for IVY. Last season they took 9th-12th place; defeating Empire Hope 2:1, but lost to cybercats 1:2 and Anime Enjoyers 0:2. Zorka is a team from open qualifiers.
- IVY win - odds 1.595
- Zorka win - odds 2.296
- Over 2.5 on cards - coefficient 1.98
- TM 2.5 on cards - coefficient 1.77
On 1 card from Zorka - the coefficient is 1.43, this is a very good outcome for such a match. If you play risky, you can pick up IVY 2:0 victory for 2.69. Very strange quotes this season, like a clear favorite against an outsider, and at 2:0 as much as 2.7.
Prediction: IVY will win Zorka - odds 1.595; with a risk of 2:0 - coefficient 2.69

Since the beginning of 2022, the roster has almost completely changed. In early January, Copy, Naturel and linkkk left the band and were replaced by Qupe, who previously played for Family Team, jmvincento from hehe united, as well as Mo13ei, who made his first professional debut. At the end of February, TheBloodySky was bought out by simply TOOBASED, and Max, a former member of SMARACIS Esports, was invited to take his place.
