Прогноз на матч: BIG - MAD Lions | Counter-Strike (CS2)

BIG and MAD Lions will meet in the 1/8 finals of PGL Major Antwerp 2022 Europe RMR Open Qualifier 3. It is clear that the German team is the favorite of the meeting. However, BIG has already shown twice that it is difficult for her in BO1 even against the background of weaker opponents. Therefore, I believe that MAD Lions have good chances to compete.

Form BIG

The 12th team in the world ranking is playing for the second qualifier without k1to, who is replaced by Krimbo. In the first case, the German team did not manage to go far, although now everything is coming in handy. Nevertheless, BIG still leaves the impression of an unstable team that can lose to anyone at any moment, especially since we are talking about BO1.

Latest BIG results:

• Victory over SpaceDucks with a score of 16:0.
• Victory over sixsixsix with a score of 16:9.
• Victory over 6o6uKu with a score of 16:6.
• Victory over poikienyo with a score of 16:8.
• Victory over GameAgents with a score of 16:7.

Best BIG cards:

• Dust 2 - 67% of wins.

At the same time, the German team will definitely not play on Inferno.

Form M.A.D. Lions

Due to well-known events, the 69th team in the world ranking is forced to play without sdy, which is replaced by rallen. In the previous qualification, the team did not go well, although now it has managed to accelerate and overcome difficult opponents. However, we still make allowances for the difference in class, since MAD Lions is still weaker than BIG in the bottom line.

Latest MAD Lions results:

• Victory over Daoi with a score of 16:3.
• Victory over KABAN GAMING with a score of 16:14.
• Victory over DOC Esport with a score of 16:9.
• Victory over ECSTATIC with a score of 22:20.
• Victory over Budapest Five with a score of 16:8.

Best MAD Lions cards:

• Ancient - 100% win rate.
• Dust 2 - 62% of wins.

At the same time, the team will definitely refuse the Vertigo card.

Statistics of meetings BIG — MAD Lions

As part of the last season, the teams had one meeting - at DreamHack Open November 2021, BIG won (2:0).

Prediction for the match BIG — MAD Lions

It is convenient for the teams to play on Dust 2, which will most likely appear. One way or another, the Germans look like unconditional favorites, and, given the likelihood of a Dust 2 pick, there is no doubt that they will win. Therefore, here, despite the principle of the match for MAD Lions, I propose to bet on the victory of the BIG team with Handicap in rounds (-3.5).
