Prédiction de match: sAw - Sangal {{Counter-Strike (CS2)

SAW and Sangal will meet in the third round of the ESL Challenger League Season 45 Europe lower net. Both teams have already lost here, and the next loss will be their last.

To be fair, the Portuguese team has a certain credibility, as they have some good experience, and have been playing each other for quite some time, despite all the changes.

In turn, Sangal are a very unstable team that does not particularly stand out at their level. Therefore, I would go for a logical win for SAW here.

SAW's form

The 32nd ranked team in the world failed at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR A where they suffered three defeats before changing their line-up and coach.

The Portuguese side even made it through to the quarter-finals of the Brazy Party 2023 online tournament, managing to beat both ENCE and Astralis in the group stage.

Of course, the European side didn't play in the RMR tournament, but in May they successfully competed at the Elisa Invitational Spring 2023 where they beat PROSPECTS and Looking4Org.

SAW - Sangal encounter statistics

Within the current season, the teams have played two meetings:

• SAW's 2-0 win in CCT South Europe Series 2.
• A 2-0 win for SAW in CCT North Europe Series 4.

Interestingly, both times the teams played on map Inferno and Ancient.

SAW - Sangal forecast

Only the streak of four wins in a row speaks in favour of Sangal, although of the opponents there were only the French, with whom they still managed to squeak out.

On the other hand, the Portuguese are somehow more interesting at the International, and they can show their worth in the competition. That said, the layout with maps Inferno and Ancient is best suited for SAW who have been skating on them for a long time.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on a win for SAW.
