Vitality and Spirit will meet in the final round of ESL Pro League Season 14. There is nothing to count, because in any case the French go to the playoffs from the second place, while the “dragons” leave the championship. However, it is Spirit who is able to finally slam the door, showing a strong game on her favorite map.
Vitality Form
The ninth team in the world rankings got off to a great start in ESL Pro League Season 14, showing strong play in the first rounds. However, in general, the team still has room to grow. It's another matter that with such a baggage Vitality jumped into the playoffs, for which it is already starting to prepare. Nevertheless, I would still like to reproach the team for its inherent instability, which may come back to haunt in the future.
Recent Vitality results:

- Vertigo - 67% wins.
- Nuke - 67% wins.
- Inferno - 67% wins.
- Mirage - 60% wins.
It is interesting to note that the team did not win on Dust 2 for a long time, while Ancient is now a permanent ban.
Spirit form
The 12th world team failed the champion, gaining the first points only before the final round. Of course, the team missed all the chances, although even in the first game of the tournament the guys could have closed Astralis. But Spirit's problems have been dragging on for several months, so everyone, including rivals, are used to the Russian team. So the guys are better off reconsidering their default, although in the last meeting the team looked decent.
Recent results Spirit:
- Victory over Endpoint with a score of 2: 1.
- Defeat to Astralis with a score of 1: 2.
- Defeat against Heroic with a score of 0: 2.
- Defeat to ENCE with a score of 0: 2.
- Victory over Bad News Bears with a score of 2: 0.
Best Spirit Cards:
- Dust 2 - 74% wins.
- Overpass - 64% wins.
- Mirage - 62% wins.
- Nuke - 50% wins.
- Ancient - 50% wins.
It is worth noting that the team has had a lame game on the Inferno map for a long time. At the same time, "dragons" do not play at all on Vertigo.
Vitality - Spirit meeting statistics
During the current season, the teams held one meeting - at the IEM Cologne 2021 Play-In, the victory went to Vitality (2: 1).
Forecast for the match Vitality - Spirit
In this fight, we should expect a fight from Spirit, since the team will definitely relax and throw off the burden of responsibility. In this situation, it will be much easier for the team to play Dust 2, which the French have difficulties with. Therefore, here I propose to put on Forum (+1.5) for the Spirit team, starting from only one card.
