On August 26, as part of CCT South America Series 1, a confrontation between paiN Gaming and Daotsu will take place. Experts from bookmakers have almost no doubts about the strength of paiN Gaming and give a coefficient for their victory in the form of 1.15. This means that the probability of winning the favorite in their opinion is ~ 81%.
So is it or not? Is it worth it in this case to limit yourself only to betting on the victory of the favorite, or can you think of something else? I will consider all this together with you in the framework of this forecast.
PaiN Gaming Uniform
Now the Brazilian team is on the 32nd place in the list of the best CS:GO teams in the world according to the HLTV portal. The roster is also in excellent playing shape and has won all his last matches without any problems. The team played in August four times in Bo1 and Bo3 matches and never lost. In the open South American qualifier for Intel Extreme Masters Road to Rio 2022, the team took the first place, defeating Isurus Gaming, ODDIK, 00NATION and MIBR
Mappool team is also quite good. The team performs well on five maps, which cannot but please their fans. Dust 2 has the best indicator, where the team played 8 maps and never lost. The team shows a stunning result on Inferno with Ancient. Both maps were played 8 times and won in 75% of cases. The win rate is the same on Overpass, however, not 8 maps have been played there recently, but 4. On Nuke, the team has a 71.4% win rate with 7 matches played. On Vertigo, the team has the worst record - only 25% of wins in 4 meetings. Mirage paiN Gaming don't play at all.
It is noteworthy that the roster was completed on August 15 and only 10 days have passed since then, but this was enough for the players to play with each other properly and show good results in the open qualifiers at IEM Road to Rio 2022.

Daotsu Game Uniform
Daotsu look rather insecure against the background of their opponents in the next match and lose on almost all fronts. The team is currently ranked 122 in the list of the best CS:GO teams in the world according to HLTV. The team is made up of Brazilian players who have no experience of performing on the stage at a higher level.
In the August matches, the team also showed a good performance and often won. Over the past month, the team has taken part in three events: closed qualifiers for CBCS Masters Festival 2022, Liga Gamers Club 2022 Series A July and CCT South America Series 1. Roster played in eight matches in August and won seven times. The two teams that failed to beat the Daotsu players were Sharks Esports and ODDIK. Other opponents in the face of SWS, Stars Horizon, B4 and others.
The team's map pool is quite interesting. The trump card up the sleeve of the Brazilians is Dust 2 and 86.7% of wins made in 15 matches. Mirage and Nuke came in second and third with 63.6% and 50.0%, respectively. The team played 11 times in the first of them, and 8 times on the second map. Overpass, like Nuke, has a 50% win rate, but it was only played 6 times on this map. Ancient, Inferno and Vertigo are the weakest Brazilian cards. On Ancient, with four played times, the win rate is 25%, and on Vertigo and Ancient, the team has never won. If in the case of Vertigo everything is not so offensive and the team played there only once, then there were five such attempts on Inferno.

Conclusion
In this matchup, paiN Gaming looks like the clear favorite for several reasons. Firstly, the team is on a completely different playing level and includes experienced players who have earned tens of thousands of dollars. Secondly, paiN Gaming's map pool looks more impressive than that of their opponents and even Dust 2, which is played very well by Daotsu - the main trump card up their sleeve and paiN Gaming. Moreover, the team performs well on other maps, and Daotsu doesn't have much chance of winning.
If we consider the question of how to bet in this case, then I prefer the option with a Handicap of -1.5 cards in favor of paiN Gaming (it is also the exact score for the match 2-0 in favor of paiN Gaming). If the teams fight each other even on Dust 2, then paiN will have to defeat their opponent on the class and then defeat the opponents on the second map without any problems. PaiN play well on Inferno, Ancient, and Overpass, but Daotsu has big problems playing on these maps.
Final bet: Correct score 2-0 in favor of paiN Gaming
