Matchförutsägelse: NiP - NaVi | CS2 (CS:GO)
IEM Brazil Rio 2023Ninjas in Pyjamas and NAVI will meet in the semi-finals of the top group stage of IEM Rio 2023. Perhaps Born to Win has a very easy grid, as I am very dubious of Ninjas' abilities.
Moreover, Ninjas in Pyjamas consistently score poorly against opponents who play from structure, but also like to rip up the tempo. In other words, the team doesn't do well in big matches, and that promises to happen very soon.
So I'd go with a NAVI team win here. I won't get caught up in a rout, but in my mind Ninjas in Pyjamas falls far short of a sensation.
Ninjas in Pyjamas form
The 22nd ranked team in the world showed nothing at the BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2023 Europe, after which they failed to qualify for IEM Dallas 2023.
However, the European squad bounced back at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B, where after losses to Vitality and FORZE managed to pick up three wins and qualify for the majors.
As for Long Soppeg in the group stage of IEM Rio 2023, here Ninjas in Pyjamas had no chance to take on Imperial Esports and they played cool. However, I have a feeling that the Brazilians are not burning with the desire to play this tournament at all.
Latest Ninjas in Pyjamas results:
- A 13-16 loss to Vitality.
- A 12-16 defeat at the hands of FORZE.
- 2-0 win over Astralis.
- 2-0 win over BIG.
- 16-5 win over Imperial Esports.
Best Ninjas in Pyjamas:
- Nuke - 80% wins.
- Mirage - 73% wins.
- Vertigo - 69% wins.
It should be remembered that the European squad usually gives up maps Anubis.
NAVI uniforms
The fourth team of the world ranking played very well in the recent BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR A, where they could cope with Into the Breach and Falcons already on the first day.
Moreover, the Ukrainian team defeated FaZe Clan in the third round without a chance, thanks to which they created a serious application for the future.
Speaking about Long Corner in the group stage of IEM Rio 2023, here NAVI was able to cope with the Mongolians from TheMongolz. It was obvious that the team could have given the game away, but still showed an exemplary attack.
Recent NAVI results:
- A 1-2 loss to FaZe Clan.
- A 22-19 win over Into the Breach.
- A 16-6 win over the Falcons.
- Beat FaZe Clan 2-0.
- 16-9 win over TheMongolz.
Best NAVI scores:
- Anubis - 100% wins.
- Ancient - 88% wins.
- Overpass - 75% wins.
- Inferno - 56% wins.
In turn, the Ukrainian team has long refused Vertigo maps.
Ninjas in Pyjamas - NAVI match statistics
During the current season, the teams have played two meetings:
- A 2-1 victory for NAVI in the BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023.
- NAVI won the BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023 2-1.
They played Mirage, Overpass and Inferno at the time.
Ninjas in Pyjamas vs NAVI
I don't see any point in looking for a sensation here, as Ninjas in Pyjamas are far from marking wins in such matches so far. What's more, Born to Win seems to have found their game, so now they can be tagged as trophy contenders. So in this case, I'd recommend betting on a NAVI win.
