Прогноз на матч: NaVi - Astralis | Counter-Strike (CS2)

The second pair of semifinal participants is represented by the best team according to HLTV, Astralis, and Natus Vincere that is in the best shape in a year for sure. The teams will be playing up to two wins and the loser will leave the event as the playoff stage is happening in the single-elimination bracket.

The rosters have recently played with each other at BLAST Premier Spring Series 2020: Regular Season and then, sensationally, the Ukrainian team got the win. S1mple and the team beat Astralis 2:1 and kicked them out of the group.

“Born to Win” got in good shape and it is clear that Perfecto's joining the team and the B1ad3's transfer to the coach position was fruitful. The roster won the group stage at BLAST Premier Spring Series 2020: Regular Season and made it to the LAN-final, and the guys beat NiP and defeated FaZe Clan twice in the group, however, the esportsmen were not able to oppose to Fnatic. At the playoff, Flamie and the team coped with their kryptonite, Team Liquid, with the score 2:0 and got enough confidence for the meeting with Astralis.

Astralis doesn't need to be introduced as they became the best team last year and four players of the main roster for to 20 Strongest players according to HLTV. The Danish failed at BLAST Premier Spring Series 2020: Regular Season, having lost all their matches and it was only beneficial for the players - the team refreshed and at IEM Katowice 2020, we see Astralis as we are used to.

At the group stage, Dev1ce and the team got placed on the first position as they didn't give any map to Fnatic, Cloud9, and Vitality.

Sportsbooks think that Astralis are favorites of the competition, however, if we take a look at Natus Vincere, we can see that it is not so straightforward there, so we recommend paying attention to the market “handicap of rounds + 4.5 for Natus Vincere” with the odds 1.6.
