Прогноз на матч CS2 FunPlus Phoenix - G2 Esports

FunPlus Phoenix and G2 will meet in the semifinals of the upper bracket of IEM Summer 2021. The winner of this match will definitely make it to the playoffs of the championship, while the losing team will get another chance in the lower bracket. However, I'm very interested to watch FunPlus Phoenix, who performed well on Ancient.

FunPlus Phoenix Shape

The 17th team in the world rankings took ninth place in FLASHPOINT 3, playing in their usual manner. However, do not forget that the team easily closed HYENAS and Complexity, tormenting only with Sprout. Another thing is that FunPlus Phoenix has already started at IEM Summer 2021, beating Astralis. Of the interesting things, it should be said that the team looked great on the new Ancient, often outplaying the Danes precisely in terms of understanding the map.

Recent FunPlus Phoenix results:

• Defeat to NiP with a score of 0: 2.
• Defeat against Vitality with a score of 1: 2.
• Victory over Complexity with a score of 2: 0.
• Victory over Sprout with a score of 2: 1.
• Victory over Astralis with a score of 16: 7.

Best FunPlus Phoenix Cards:

• Vertigo - 67% wins.
• Inferno - 58% wins.
• Nuke - 57% wins.
• Dust 2 - 50% wins.

I believe that the team will abandon Mirage, which is not doing well at all. However, Ancient should be added here, which can be a trump card up the sleeve of FunPlus Phoenix.

Form G2

The fourth world ranked team finished third in the last FLASHPOINT 3, showing good distance play. I admit that sometimes the team made mistakes, for example, in games with NiP and mousesports. However, this does not change the fact that G2 has gradually found its game. So at the start of IEM Summer 2021, the team closed Extra Salt without any chance, dominating every section of Inferno.

Recent G2 results:

• Victory over Heroic with a score of 2: 1.
• Victory over NiP with a score of 2: 1.
• Defeat against mousesports with a score of 0: 2.
• Defeat to NiP with a score of 1: 2.
• Victory over Extra Salt with a score of 16: 1.

Best G2 cards:

• Inferno - 73% wins.
• Vertigo - 67% wins.
• Mirage - 62% wins.
• Nuke - 50% wins.

I have practically no doubt that the team will refuse from Overpass. However, at the same time, an opportunity emerges for the opponent in the form of the Ancient card.

FunPlus Phoenix - G2 Meeting Statistics

During the current season, the teams held one meeting - in the closed qualifier for IEM Summer 2021, the victory went to FunPlus Phoenix (2: 1).

Prediction for the match FunPlus Phoenix - G2

I believe that in the current conditions G2 looks like a favorite. It is worth noting, however, that FunPlus Phoenix has a pretty good psychological advantage associated with the history of meetings. In addition, FunPlus Phoenix played excellently on Ancient, while G2 had not yet had time to play on a brand new map. And do not forget that the same Inferno is approximately equal in chances. Therefore, here I propose to put on Forum (+1.5) for FunPlus Phoenix.
