Förutsägelse om match CS2 Movistar Riders - 9z

Welcome to EGamersWorld.

The playoffs of possibly the last big tournament in CSGO are underway. The ESL Pro League Season 18 main stage matches are underway.

In the third match of the day we will see a match between 9Z Team and Movistar Riders. No matter what anyone says, but this match looks very The International here.

The International match is interesting at least because the pair of teams is quite unexpected. Both Movistar Riders and 9Z Team show atypically good play and after this match one of them will be in the top 8 of ESL Pro League. And that's already an achievement.

We will try to find out which of the teams will make a mini sensation at the tournament and continue their way to the champion's cup, and who will have to say goodbye to their ambitions to move further up the tournament grid.

Let's go.

Form 9Z Team

Let's open our match analysis with an analysis of 9Z Team's uniforms. In this match they will play as favourites.

At least that's what the esports betting sites say. In this match, the odds for the victory of 9Z Team are at around 1.85.

In fact, the favourite is too loud. Rather here is a surprise from the last match of the Argentinians, where the main sensation in the tournament after Heroic's failure to qualify for the play-offs.

The Argentine club has spent the entire year at all sorts of championships. Most of them were regional tournaments like CCT South America, where at one of the championships 9Z Team took TOP-1.

They have also made appearances at prestigious international events. For example, in March of this year they visited Intel Extreme Masters Dalls 2023, where they even managed to beat Fnatic, but still did not go further than the group stage and at the end of the championship they were ranked TOP-12.

Prior to the ESL Pro League Season 18, the Argentinians played at a number of "medium" level championships. These were CCT North Europe Series 7, where 9Z Team finished in the top 16 and Thunderpick World Championship 2023: Europe, where the team finished in the top 8.

At ESL Pro League Season 18, 9Z managed to qualify for the play-offs by going the longest way possible - the last chance grid. 9Z got there by losing to FaZe in the beginning and then to Imperial. Then a very solid comeback at the bottom: a clean win against M80 and Apeks and a 2-1 win against 5cyclone.

In the first play-offs match 9Z Team played Virtus.pro. Being a clear outsider, the Argentinian club managed to surprise their visions and won with a score of 2-1, thus sending Vp home.

Mappul 9Z Team

The best map of the Argentinians is Inferno. 9Z have played there 11 times and have a statistic of 8-3. Next comes Nuke (8-4) and Ancient (4-2).

Things are not much worse on Mirage and Overpass. On the former, which is true, only 3 games, but 2-1, but on Overpass it's already 5-3.

Neutral map is Anubis. 9Z has a score of 2-2 there.

They don't play on Vertigo.

Movistar Riders uniform

We continue the match analysis with Movistar Riders form. In this match they play from the position of catching up, although there is a nuance.

Bookmakers confirm the pre-match odds. The odds for Movistar RIders victory are at 1.9.

Again, we should expect parity. This is evident both from the odds and from the overall playing form.

The Spanish club has had a hyper saturated year. However, busy doesn't always mean productive.

Among the many events Movistar Riders mostly attended small championships with a very dubious pool of participants, but there were also quite prestigious events. Among those worth mentioning are CCT Central Europe Malta Finals, where MR took the top 4 and Elisa Invitational Winter 2023, where they also finished in the top four.

When it comes to the top events, last season of the ESL Pro League was definitely one of them. At ESL Pro League Season 17 Movistar Riders were ranked in the top 16 and they have already repeated this result, and to break it it is enough to win the only Bo3.

• Movistar Riders roster: mopoz, ALEX, Martinez, JUST, adams.

Movistar Riders played a number of small events like CCT Online Finals #2 and IEM Masters Sydney qualifiers before the ESL Pro League Season 18 Long Conference, where they didn't find success. Movistar Riders won the RTP Arena Cup 2023, boosting their morale before the ESL Pro League Season 18 Long Sogpeg.

The Pro League itself is going extremely well. Movistar Riders made it to the second round of play-offs by advancing to the final of the top grid in Group A: they beat FURIA and GamerLegion 2-0, but Ledge and Vitality 0-2.

Movistar Riders Mapple

The most successful map for Movistar Riders is Nuke, where the Spaniards have 3 wins and 1 loss. Next comes Vertigo with a score of 2-1 and Ancient with a score of 3-2.

Neutral choices are Inferno and Anubis. Both maps have been played 4 times and on both maps the stats are 2-2.

The worst situation is on Overpass, where MR won 2 matches out of 6.

Mirage are not playing

History of head-to-head meetings

Previously the teams have not played each other in head-to-head meetings.

Predicted result of Movistar Riders vs 9Z Team at ESL Pro League Season 18

It is difficult to predict the exact result of this match. As I said above, both teams have shown very good CS during ESL Pro League Season 18, so I expect an even fight.

I won't name the winner of the match, but most likely it will end with the score 2-1. That's the bet.

Bottom line: total +2.5.
