NAVI - Gambit Esports: semi-final prediction PGL Major: Stockholm 2021

The fiery semi-final awaits us with the participation of CIS teams - Gambit Esports and Natus Vincere. Some of these clubs will definitely make it to the grand final, and therefore 2021 can be called the best year for the CIS esports.

Gambit Esports yesterday beat FURIA Esports with a score of 2: 0 with enough nerves, and NaVi, without any problems on Dust 2, but with minimal troubles on Nuke, outplayed the French from Vitality.

Separately, I would like to note the individual form of the players of the teams, for Gambit Esports it is nafany, interz, Ax1Le, for NAVI - s1mple, b1t, Perfecto.

Vertigo [3]

Overpass
Dust 2

NAVI will definitely be banned by Vertigo, and Gambit Esports will abandon Nuke, Gambits should take Inferno for themselves, and NAVI can again charge Overpass. Further, the minus Ancient from Gambit Espors and the question is whether they want to play NAVI - Dust 2 or Mirage on the decisive one, should pick Mirage, since Gambit Esports do not play there that often.

In total, the map veto should be as follows:

Inferno (Gambit Peak)
Overpass (NAVI peak)
Mirage (decisive)

Bookmakers give 2.935 odds for Gambit Esports and 1.425 for NAVI. They practically do not believe in "Gambits", but I would think about it. TB 2.5 is valued at 1.92, which is a logical bet.

Prediction: 3 maps (TB 2.5) in the match between NAVI and Gambit Esports - PGL Major semi-final: Stockholm 2021 - coefficient 1.92
