Прогноз на матч CS2 Evil Geniuses - Team Spirit

Evil Geniuses and Spirit will meet in the starting BO1 at IEM Summer 2021. However, I am not sure that anything special should be expected from the North American team, given the disastrous results even on home soil. At the same time, the "dragons" are gradually returning to the big game, having presented us with a good Counter Strike at the last tournament.

Evil Geniuses form

The 38th team in the world rankings failed in Europe, after which they flew to North America. But even there the team turned out to be unnecessary, failing cs_summit 8. It is interesting that Evil Geniuses took the last place in their group, losing both matches to the Brazilians. And it seems to me that everything is lost with this team for a long time. In addition, there are rumors about the coach's departure from Evil Geniuses, which automatically puts an end to all championship attempts.

Recent results Evil Geniuses:

• Lost to ex-Winstrike with a score of 0: 2.
• Defeat to Dignitas with a score of 0: 2.
• Lost to BIG with a score of 0: 2.
• Defeat against paiN with a score of 1: 2.
• Lost to FURIA with a score of 0: 2.

Interestingly, Evil Geniuses has no really good cards in store. So here is also added Ancient, on which no one really knows how to play.

Spirit form

The 14th team in the world rankings took fourth place at the last EPIC League CIS 2021. Interestingly, the team had a fantastic first half of the championship, but showed two failed playoff matches. Nevertheless, Spirit still found its game, with which you can not worry about the results in Europe. And it seems to me that the “dragons” will pass Evil Geniuses without any problems, which in its current form deserves a quick departure.

• Defeat Entropiq with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over K23 with a score of 2: 0.
• Lost at Gambit with a score of 0: 2.
• Victory over NAVI with a score of 2: 0.
• Defeat against Virtus.pro with a score of 1: 2.

Best Spirit Cards:

• Dust 2 - 85% wins.
• Overpass - 83% wins.
• Inferno - 60% wins.

It is clear that in this match we will miss Vertigo. However, I think Spirit is wary of Nuke, Mirage and Ancient.

Forecast for the match Evil Geniuses - Spirit

I see no reason to expect a sensation. Evil Geniuses is as bad as Spirit's current form is. At the same time, I do not see a single card on which Evil Geniuses could catch on. And the latest results of the North American team cause only empathy. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the Spirit team with Handicap (-2.5).
