Прогноз на матч CS2 Espada - SG.pro

A meeting between the Espada and SG.pro teams will take place very soon. The winner will advance to the Nine to Five 6 quarterfinals, where they will play against Gambit. But interestingly, SG.pro can still pleasantly surprise by getting involved in a race with Espada.

Espada Form

The Russian team ranks 32nd in the world ranking, showing good results recently. In the recent LOOT.BET Season 8, the team became the third, losing in the semifinals to compatriots from Virtus.pro (0: 2).

After that, Espada's mood worsened, and the team failed OGA Counter PIT by AMD and Sapphire Season 8, losing to AGO (0: 2) and Secret (0: 2). A little later, at the qualifiers for DreamHack Open November 2020 Europe, the team finished second, losing to Gambit (1: 2). However, already within the group stage of Nine to Five 6, the team won all three meetings and easily made it to the playoffs.

Best Espada cards:

• Dust 2 - 100% wins.
• Mirage - 59% wins.

At the same time, the team will clearly abandon Vertigo, which has traditionally not played for several months.

SG.pro Form

The 96th rating team is a pleasant surprise at this tournament. SG.pro started Nine to Five 6 with victories over Heretics (2: 1) and Copenhagen Flames (2: 1), however, the Russian team unexpectedly lost to PACT (0: 2) and NEXUS (0: 2). And only thanks to the victory over K23 in the decisive meeting, SG.pro was able to advance to the playoffs of the event.

SG.pro card pool:

• Mirage - 70% wins.
• Vertigo - 67% wins.
• Nuke - 62% wins.
• Dust 2 - 60% wins.

But is it worth saying that for a long time the team played with the TIER-3 scene teams? In addition, the team does not play on the Inferno map, which we should not expect.

Personal meetings statistics

You will be surprised, but in the only meeting of the teams, SG.pro celebrated the victory (2: 0 in the framework of Nine to Five 4).

Forecast for the match Espada - SG.pro

Despite SG.pro's potential, Espada should be winning this match. Still, the current form of the team allows us to talk about the advantages over the opponent. Therefore, in this match I will bet on the victory of the Espada team with the odds of 1.64.
