Digital Athletics and CGN Esports will meet in the group stage of the VALORANT Challengers Ascension 2023: EMEA. For the German team, this game will be the last and decisive one, because if they win, they will still be in contention for a place in the play-offs.
For their part, Digital Athletics have a theoretical chance, but after two defeats in the Long Stage of the championship, the Turkish side somehow don't have much faith in them.
And here, the Germans clearly look more interesting in terms of their play, and that's what we should build on. In theory, this match could turn into another failure for Digital Athletics. But given the long odds, I'd go with the card from CGN Esports.
Digital Athletics form.
The 24th-ranked team in Europe failed at the Long Carnegov VALORANT Challengers Turkey: Birlik - Split 1, finishing only seventh at the end of the championship.
However, Digital Athletics managed to win the VALORANT Challengers Turkey: Birlik - Split 2 at the end of the regional season to make their way to Ascension.
Yet the Long Corner group stage of VALORANT Challengers Ascension 2023: EMEA saw the Turkish side fall short as they failed to compete with Acend and SAW.

It is worth saying that the Turkish team does not take the risk of showing up on the Bind map.

The fifteenth-ranked team in Europe won both regional splits of the VALORANT Challengers 2023 DACH: Evolution, playing strongly against their rivals.

Forecast of the match Digital Athletics - CGN Esports
The Turkish team looks like the clear outsider so far. It is clear that they still have a game with Dsyre to go, but in fact, even before that, Digital Athletics may lose any chance.
As for CGN Esports, the team looks good, so it makes sense to believe in the card from the Germans. Especially with those odds, you don't even have to think about it.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the Forum on map (+1.5) for the team CGN Esports.
