Прогноз на матч CS2 Extra Salt - Liquid

Extra Salt and Liquid will meet in the group stage cs_summit 8. It seems to me that liquid ones do not learn from mistakes, flirting with recklessness. Well, Extra Salt is still confidently rushing into battle, showing confident and verified Counter Strike.

Extra Salt Form

The 19th team in the world rankings performed at several tournaments in Europe, gaining a lot of experience. Another thing is that the team continued to dominate in their region. We are reminded of this not only by ESEA Premier Season 37 North America, but also by the start of cs_summit 8, where Extra Salt closed EXTREMUM without any problems.

Recent Extra Salt results:

• Victory over QcClan with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over GODSENT with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over O PLANO with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over SKDC with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over EXTREMUM with a score of 2: 0.

Best Extra Salt Cards:

• Nuke - 84% wins.
• Overpass - 78% wins.
• Train - 74% wins.
• Vertigo - 70% wins.
• Dust 2 - 67% wins.
• Inferno - 59% wins.

I don't think we should wait for Mirage. However, the statistics of this team look impressive.

Liquid form

The ninth team in the world ranking failed the last championships in Europe and decided to go home. The team had been preparing for cs_summit 8 for about a month, but something went wrong, because it should be a shame to lose to an outsider of the championship at its peak. Nevertheless, the “liquid” ones bounced back in their usual manner, having managed to notably ruffle the nerves of their fans.

Recent Liquid results:

• Victory over Evil Geniuses with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over Virtus.pro with a score of 2: 0.
• Defeat from G2 with a score of 1: 2.
• Defeat to Dignitas with a score of 0: 2.
• Defeat Bad News Bears 2: 1.

Best Liquid cards:

• Overpass - 80% wins.
• Nuke - 67% wins.
• Mirage - 67% wins.
• Vertigo - 60% wins.
• Inferno - 50% wins.

It is interesting that the band has not played on Train for a long time. At the same time, one cannot fail to notice the fact that the team has difficulties on Dust 2.

Meeting statistics Extra Salt - Liquid

In the last season, the teams played five matches, in which the advantage was on the side of Liquid - four wins against one defeat.

Prediction for the match Extra Salt - Liquid

The statistics of face-to-face meetings should be immediately ignored, since all this was in the days of Cloud9. Immediately after Extra Salt, they renewed their roster and began to bring their region to its knees, winning one tournament after another.

But let's get back to cs_summit 8, the start of which gave several reasons for discussion. Firstly, in my opinion, the favorite is Extra Salt, which looks flawlessly at a distance. Secondly, Liquid can surprise, starting only from the experience of the players and their own skill. Therefore, here I propose to play it safe and bet on Forum (+1.5) for Extra Salt. I will explain this by the fact that the team has three very confident maps, namely Dust 2, Overpass and Inferno.
