AGO and Lyngby Vikings will meet in the first round of the playoffs of Elisa Invitational Fall 2021. Honestly, there is no favorite in this fight, since both teams play in CS with approximately equal capabilities, and the results have been lagging recently. I will only note that the winner of this meeting will go to the quarterfinals, where he will play against ENCE.
AGO Form
The 26th team in the world ranking recently took first place in the Polish National Esports Cup 2021, although the achievement is medium in scale. As for the Elisa Invitational Fall 2021, the Poles went through the championship in principle exactly, not counting the defeat from the Copenhagen Flames and the technical victory over Dignitas. Another point is that it seems like AGO has already said goodbye to rallen and snatchie, who have played their farewell tournament and must leave the main clip. So in this regard, it is worth waiting for news and surprises, perhaps not in favor of the Poles.
Recent AGO results:
- Lost to Copenhagen Flames with a score of 1: 2.
- Lost to Wisla Krakow with a score of 1: 2.
- Victory over GORILLAZ with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Wisla Krakow with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over HONORIS with a score of 2: 0.
Best AGO cards:
- Dust 2 - 85% wins.
- Ancient - 75% wins.
- Vertigo - 60% wins.
- Inferno - 59% wins.
- Nuke - 58% wins.
If the Poles have not played on Overpass for a long time, then the difficulties with Mirage are a little out of the general picture of events.
Lyngby Vikings uniform
The 27th world ranked team recently won the Funspark ULTI 2021 Europe Regional Series 3, closing AGO in the grand final. Next, the Danes ran through the Pinnacle Fall Series 2 Regionals without throwing off a single map. But as part of the Elisa Invitational Fall 2021, Lyngby Vikings had problems, which most likely depended on a lack of motivation.
Recent Lyngby Vikings results:
- Victory over EC Kyiv with a score of 2: 0.
- Defeat from HAVU with a score of 0: 2.
- Victory over Nemiga with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over KOVA with a score of 2: 1.
- Lost to FunPlus Phoenix with a score of 14:16.
Best Lyngby Vikings cards:
- Vertigo - 86% wins.
- Ancient - 73% wins.
- Overpass - 67% wins.
- Inferno - 65% wins.
- Dust 2 - 57% wins.
- Nuke - 57% wins.
The situation is a little worse on Mirage, but we are unlikely to see it either.
Meeting statistics AGO - Lyngby Vikings
During the current season, the teams held two meetings:
- Lyngby Vikings win in Malta Vibes Knockout Series 1 with a score of 2: 0.
- Lyngby Vikings wins Funspark ULTI 2021 Europe Regional Series 3 with a score of 2: 1.
We have already recalled the recent final.
Forecast for the match AGO - Lyngby Vikings
I repeat my thought that the match is approximately equal. First of all, both bands perform well at Vertigo, Ancient and Nuke. And if Dust 2 is a little stronger for the Poles, then the Danes are clearly better on Inferno. However, the situation with the composition and the last meetings are being decided. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the Lyngby Vikings team to win.
