Matchförutsägelse: NaVi - Heroic | CS2 (CS:GO)
EPICENTER 2019“Born to Win” will start their way to the victory at EPICENTER 2019 with a match against Heroic in the bo3 format. The group stage will be held by the GSL format, so the losing team will not leave the competition but will get to the lower part of the bracket where they will have one more chance to make it to the playoff.
Natus Vincere has always had problems at the battles with Heroic, so we can say that the Danish are not convenient opponents for S1mple and the team. Their last offline meeting happened approximately two months ago at StarSeries i-League Season 8 and there Heroic representatives turned out to be stronger beating their opponents with the score of 2:0.
Another fact in favor of es3tag and the team is that NaVi often starts the group stage poorly and can get defeated by even a clear outsider.
Over the last month, Natus Vincere took 3-4 positions at BLAST Pro Series: Copenhagen 2019 and ESL Pro League Season 10 - Finals, whereas Heroic failed. The Danish team performed at DreamHack Open Atlanta 2019 and ESL Pro League Season 10 - Finals, however, the players were not able to reach any position higher than 7-8.
Sportsbooks lean towards NaVi and we also suppose that S1mple and the team have more chances to win the battle up to two wins, however, we advise to pay attention to the market “handicap of a map +1.5 for Heroic” with odds 1.95.
