Prédiction de match: paiN Gaming - Team Liquid {{Counter-Strike (CS2)
cs_summit 8paiN and Liquid will meet in the semi-finals of cs_summit 8. If the Brazilian team reached the playoffs of the championship without any problems, the liquid team had to go through fire, water and copper pipes, having spent three equal fights. In this regard, Liquid will clearly not be the favorite, no matter how the bookmakers suggest.
PaiN form
The 32nd team in the world rankings visited Europe a month ago, where they quickly realized the difference between defeating Bad News Bears and playing with Heroic. As a result, the Brazilians flew back to try their luck at the local RMR championship. At the same time, paiN started so abruptly at cs_summit 8 that it quickly beat Evil Geniuses and O PLANO, knocking out a slot in the semifinals in advance. But more importantly, this collective is an improved version of FURIA as it takes discipline.

In this match, we are unlikely to see Overpass, which the Brazilians practically do not play on. Another point is that even against the background of Liquid, the statistics look promising.
Liquid form
The ninth team in the world ranking does not seem to be a great one in its region. Not only did the team lose to Extra Salt, they also managed to get into trouble in games with Bad News Bears and EXTREMUM. The point is not only in the lost maps to opponents of a lower level, but in the game itself, which sometimes did not go in favor of Liquid. Therefore, once again there is a possibility that the team will slow down and get nervous.

It is interesting that the band has not played Train for a long time. At the same time, one cannot fail to notice the fact that the team has difficulties on Dust 2 and Inferno - with strong opponent cards.

PaiN - Liquid prediction
And here it is more interesting. Liquid, being the favorite, looks worse in terms of the history and experience of the roster, considering the history and experience of the roster. Secondly, the Brazilians in March have already beaten the “liquid” who played from Europe. However, this does not negate the fact that right now Liquid has difficulties not only with the game, but also with confidence in their own choice. Therefore, here I propose to play it safe and put on Forum (+1.5) for paiN.
