Prédiction de match: Renegades - OG {{Counter-Strike (CS2)
IEM Cologne 2021 Play-InAnother match in the lower bracket, but this time it is much more important. At stake is the passage to the group stage, and this is already something. OG and Renegades will fight for a place in the group stage.
Another duel between two opposite regions, with a seemingly known outcome. Yesterday OG did not manage to break into the group stage, but now it will be much easier to do it.
However, perhaps the intrigue on this Play-In is still alive and the main sensations await us today? Unlikely, but still possible. We never say never, because who knows if the Australians will light up today?
Let's figure out what to expect from the fight and whether Renegades will be able to impose the fight on OG or the European team will easily take the slot to the group stage.
Form OG
Yesterday we had time to discuss OG and said that while the European team lacks stability. Yesterday, the 13th number in the world ranking successfully proved this, losing 0-2 to the Germans from BIG, who are not showing their best shape in the new season.
However, that is the case of bygone days, and today we have a new match. This time, the opponent is clearly easier and this should please OG.

OG Cards
The most successful map for OG is Overpass, where in 5 games they have a win rate of 80%
Worst Failed - Nuke with a win rate of 40 at 5 games
Vertigo and Ancient OG are ignored.
After yesterday's kick from BIG, OG had to pull themselves together and focus on the essentials. One bo3 separates them from the group stage and this opportunity should not be missed.
Renegades form
Renegades in their region look like an invincible force, but only in their region, which is far from being the strongest CS in the world. Australians run into problems as soon as they enter the European CS field. By the way, they figured out the Brazilian Counter-Strike yesterday, though not without problems.
For Renegades, winning this match could be the starting point for the podium in the world CSGO. In the conditions of recent years (COVI-19), the representative of Oceania simply does not have playing practice against the best teams, and therefore one cannot miss the chance to “shine” at IEM Cologne 2021.

Renegades cards
Best Renegades card - Nuke with 100% winrate over 5 games
The most “unsuccessful” is Overpass with 80% win rate in 5 games.
In addition, Renegades, unlike OG, play on Vertigo, and quite successfully (83% with 6 games)
But there is one more "but" in all of this. This statistic is from Oceania, where the Renegades actually do what they want.
Personal meeting history
Previously, OG and Renegades played at ESL Pro League Season 13. Then OG celebrated the victory with a score of 2-0.
Match outcome
Yesterday Renegedas managed to beat MIBR dry, which has already created a small sensation. But I think that this is the end of the sensations.
I don't see how Renegades beat OG in the Play-In match. The Europeans will win.
Outcome: OG 2-0 victory.
And again, one of the teams moves on and continues to fight for $ 1 million, and the second leaves the tournament without showing all of its developments. Tomorrow we will be able to observe the confrontation of the best teams in the world, but for now we are inspecting the Play-in, where in almost every meeting the favorite plays with an outsider
OG won their first match without any problems, but then lost to BIG in an incredibly tight match, bringing one of the maps to special stages. One can see the preparation of the team before the tournament and the LAN atmosphere does not put pressure on them in any way, because almost all the players are experienced and have experience of such performances.
Renegades managed to beat MIBR, but lost in the score throughout the match on both maps. There was a feeling that the Brazilians simply stopped playing in the ending and the Australians calmly took advantage of this and now they have a ghostly chance not to fly out right now.
Outcome
OG is two heads stronger than its opponent, and with a similar map pool, it should calmly end the meeting 2-0 and go to prepare for the opponents from the main stage, because a defeat in this match would mean a complete failure for this roster and organization.
