Grayhound Gaming and TheMongolz will play in the third round of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage, presenting us with another regional derby in the vastness of Paris.
I don't share the mass sympathy for the Mongolian squad, who played above expectations the day before and bounced back strongly in many moments, albeit not bad in terms of shooting.
For their part, the Aussies laughed wildly and simultaneously made history with 0:16 from Apeks, but that would be a different story here. So here I would lean on the Grayhound Gaming team to win.
Grayhound Gaming's form
The 28th ranked team in the world played well at their BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Asia RMR, where they picked up three solid wins to break through to the majors.
The Australian squad also recently traveled to the home ESL Challenger Melbourne 2023, where they managed to reach the play-offs but were edged out by Bad News Eagles in the semi-finals.
As for the Long Sogpeg at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage, here Grayhound Gaming miraculously beat FORZE, but then everything fell into place with a complete rout of Apeks.
Grayhound Gaming's latest results:
- A 16-10 win over EG Black.
- Victory over Complexity Gaming with a score of 16-11.
- 1-2 loss to Bad News Eagles.
- 16-14 win over FORZE.
- 0-16 defeat by Apeks.
Grayhound Gaming's best scores:
- Nuke - 83% wins.
- Ancient - 80% wins.
- Inferno - 79% wins.
- Vertigo - 67% wins.
- Mirage - 50% wins.
It should be remembered that the Australian squad still doesn't play on the Overpass map.
TheMongolz shape
The 26th ranked team in the world hardly qualified for the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 after suffering a defeat at the hands of Grayhound Gaming in the regional RMR tournament.
Later, the Mongolian team visited IEM Rio 2023, where they even beat Imperial Esports, but at the same time Ledgeil Natus Vincere and Heroic, leaving without much achievement.
As for the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage, TheMongolz couldn't match G2 Esports, but then picked up a very unexpected win over GamerLegion.
TheMongolz's latest results:
- A 9-16 defeat to Natus Vincere.
- A 2-1 victory over Imperial Esports.
- 1-2 defeat at the hands of Heroic.
- 11-16 defeat at the hands of G2 Esports.
- 16-11 win over GamerLegion.
TheMongolz's best scores:
- Anubis - 75% wins.
- Nuke - 67% wins.
- Mirage - 60% wins.
- Inferno - 57% wins.
In turn, the Mongolian team has long given up on maps Vertigo.
Grayhound Gaming - TheMongolz encounter statistics
During the current season, the teams held one meeting - on BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Asia RMR victory went to Grayhound Gaming (2-1).
Grayhound Gaming vs TheMongolz match prediction
All of yesterday's matches here don't make sense at all, as the teams will go into the server with a clean slate, eager to prove to everyone that these guys are the best in their region.
Platitudes aside, the Australian squad have been showing quite a bit of yellowness lately, even if you recall that local tournament in Melbourne.
And I don't expect any miracles from TheMongolz, because the Mongolians already can't live up to the regalia they got after Katowice. Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on a win for Grayhound Gaming.
