Prédiction de match: Winstrike - Gambit Esports {{Counter-Strike (CS2)

These teams have already held two meetings each at IEM New York 2020 CIS, and now they are ready to meet in a head-to-head match. Both teams have three points each, which means that the integrity of the game will be on top.

Winstrike Form

32 teams of the world ranking have earned 2200 RMR-points so far, which does not guarantee a slot in the future Major. However, the team that lost Hobbit a few months ago is ready to rebuild and show a good result at IEM New York 2020 CIS.

However, the start at the tournament cannot be called outstanding, since the team, despite the victory over ETHEREAL (2: 1), sensationally lost to HellRaisers (1: 2). With three glasses, Winstrike is in an unenviable position, because in the event of a misfire, you will have to try even more. And the game with Gambit does not initially give any expectations to the fans of the team.

Best cards in the Winstrike pool:

• Mirage (75% wins).
• Vertigo (67% wins).
• Train (67% win rate).
• Dust 2 (60% win rate).

Gambit Form

Having offendedly lost the slot on FLASHPOINT 2, Gambit switched all its forces to IEM New York 2020 CIS. However, already in the first meeting in the championship, the team offensively lost to Team Spirit, one step away from the first position in their group. However, already in the second game, Tim beat ETHEREAL, returning to the race for the distribution of prizes.

But the most difficult thing is yet to come, because next in line is the game with Winstrike, a traditionally uncompromising team. And in the regional table, Gambit is not doing well - the team has 1860 RMR points. And to travel to Brazil, the team needs to go as far as possible.

At the same time, Gambit perfectly plays six cards out of seven (60% of wins and above). The only exception is Nuke, but the team basically deletes this map.

Personal meetings statistics

This year the teams played three matches, and the score in the series is 2: 1 in favor of Gambit. But interestingly, the last meeting in the framework of ESL One: Road to Rio - CIS remained with Wintrike. However, in five months the teams have changed beyond recognition. Most importantly, Hobbit left Wintrike for Gambit.

Prediction for the match Winstrike - Gambit

I assume that Gambit will be the favorite of this game. In their favor not only the presence of Hobbit'a in the line-up, but also a strong pool of cards, which unties the hands of the team. For this reason, I propose to bet on Gambit to win with 1.45 odds.
