Прогноз на матч CS2 Astralis - Vitality

Astralis and Vitality will compete for the right to qualify for the BLAST Premier Global Final 2020 grand final. I do not dispute that both teams deserve to be in the decisive match of the championship. However, the general impression is that the French should be there a little earlier.

Astralis shape

The first team in the world ranking started the championship with a big stretch, beating Evil Geniuses (2: 1) and G2 (2: 1). And if the North American guests, despite one card in the asset, still did not give the Danes big problems, then G2 was close to inflicting a defeat on Astralis. However, the team once again showed the will to win, hitting their implacable rival from France.

Best Astralis cards:

• Inferno - 79% wins.
• Train - 75% wins.
• Vertigo - 70% wins.
• Overpass - 67% wins.
• Dust 2 - 62% wins.

I believe that the Danes will pick Dust 2 or Vertigo, where, in theory, they can impose their game on the opponent. However, we can say for sure that the team is unlikely to want to tempt fate on both Mirage and Overpass.

Vitality Form

The second team of the world ranking somehow casually reached the final of the upper bracket of the championship, beating Complexity (2: 0) and Liquid (2: 0). At the same time, the team does not show anything outstanding, just doing their job with high quality.

Best Vitality Cards:

• Overpass - 83% wins.
• Inferno - 82% wins.
• Vertigo - 71% wins.
• Dust 2 - 67% wins.
• Mirage - 60% wins.
• Nuke - 54% wins.

At the same time, I am more than sure that the French will pick Nuke, where, despite not the best statistics, the Danes moved in the last face-to-face meeting.

Personal meetings statistics

At the end of last season, the teams held three meetings:

• Vitality's 2: 1 victory in DreamHack Open Fall 2020.
• Vitality's 2: 1 victory in the BLAST Premier Fall 2020 Finals.
• Astralis won in the IEM Global Challenge 2020 with a score of 2: 1.

However, you should not rely heavily on input data, given the start of the new season.

Prediction for the match Astralis - Vitality

Have you looked at meeting statistics? Then I boldly offer to bet on the Total on cards 2.5 more, which is estimated by the odds of 2.08. If we talk about favorites, then the French should close Astralis. Even in the game with G2, the Danes could have lost, but they were saved only by the opponent's inability to realize the advantage. However, Vitality will punish any mistake. And for this reason, I propose to bet on the victory of the Vitality team with the odds of 1.92.
