Prédiction sur le match CS2 Liquid - Grayhound Gaming

Team Liquid and Grayhound Gaming will meet in the lower group stage quarter-finals of IEM Dallas 2023. In this case, the loser will go home, while the winner will still try to qualify for the play-offs.

The Australian squad failed completely at the Long Cognega Championships, taking just two rounds against Cloud9. For their part, the North Americans failed to outplay the Astralis, but at least there was a fight there.

All in all, it's hard to gauge Grayhound Gaming's prospects when you're watching a game like this. And objectively, the Australians deserve a rest, that is, a trip home. So here I would lean on Team Liquid's resounding victory.

Team Liquid's form

The world number eight team managed to surprise in the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023, where they managed to outplay 9INE, Natus Vincere and Into the Breach on their way to the play-offs.

However, in the quarterfinals, Team Liquid went back to where the championship began, namely facing Apeks. As a result, the Liquid showed nothing on two maps, losing again.

As for Long Sogpeg in the group stage of IEM Dallas 2023, here Team Liquid Ledgeged Astralis, although overall they tried to fight and didn't look much worse than their opponent.

Team Liquid's latest results:

• A 16-8 win over Natus Vincere.
• 1-2 defeat of Heroic.
• Defeat Into the Breach 2-0.
• 0-2 defeat to Apeks.
• 17-19 defeat to Astralis.

Team Liquid's best scores:

• Anubis - 100% wins.
• Inferno - 62% wins.
• Mirage - 60% wins.
• Overpass - 57% wins.
• Nuke - 56% wins.

Let's not forget that the North American team invariably gives up Vertigo.

Grayhound Gaming uniforms

The 27th ranked team in the world managed to be at home ESL Challenger Melbourne 2023 where they beat EG Black and Complexity Gaming but still didn't make it past the semi-finals.

The Australian squad then travelled to the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage, where although they tried to cling on, wins over FORZE and TheMongolz proved to be the ceiling.

What's more, Grayhound Gaming had an awful long run in the group stage of IEM Dallas 2023, where they crushed Cloud9 and showed their desire to go home.

Grayhound Gaming's latest results:

• A 0-16 loss to Apeks.
• A 16-10 win over TheMongolz.
• A 0-2 loss to Ninjas in Pyjamas.
• 0-2 defeat at the hands of Team Liquid.
• 2-16 defeat at the hands of Cloud9.

Grayhound Gaming's best scores:

• Nuke - 80% wins.
• Ancient - 73% wins.
• Vertigo - 67% wins.
• Inferno - 64% wins.

In turn, the Australian team gives up maps Overpass.

Team Liquid - Grayhound Gaming encounter statistics

In the current season the teams have played one meeting - on BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage victory went to Team Liquid (2-0).

Team Liquid vs Grayhound Gaming

Suffice it to recall that the teams played each other at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 where Team Liquid showed two solid results and won easily.

Not much has changed since then. In other words, Grayhound Gaming clearly didn't play any better, especially with such a Long Sogpeg. All in all, the Australian Ledge team is going downhill on all fronts, which was clear even before the Long Cogneg Championship.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Team Liquid's 2-0 win.
