Matchförutsägelse: Outsiders - fnatic | CS2 (CS:GO)
IEM Rio 2022 Challengers StageOutsiders and fnatic will meet in the fourth round of the IEM Rio Major 2022 Challengers Stage, where they will compete for one of the tickets to the next stage of the championship.
To put it bluntly, I don't believe in fnatic's chances because, as has been said many times, the team is too straightforward and monotonous. And as soon as it comes to the middle and late timings, then the guys do not succeed.
In turn, Outsiders knows how to dry matches, and again accelerates during the tournament. Therefore, relying on yesterday's victory, I would consider the passage of the Russian team.
Form Outsiders
The eighth team in the world ranking managed to win the ESL Challenger at DreamHack Rotterdam 2022, having generally shown a good game throughout the championship.
However, at the start of IEM Rio Major 2022, the Russian team lost to MOUZ, where he did not look good at all. Fortunately, the Outsiders returned to the fight and closed the IHC.
Well, in the last round, the team confirmed the idea that it swings during the event. And then Outsiders managed to outplay Vitality, significantly improving their standings.
Latest Outsiders results:
- Victory over MOUZ with a score of 2:1.
- Victory over ENCE with a score of 2:0.
- Lost to MOUZ with a score of 6:16.
- Victory over IHC with a score of 16:12.
- Victory over Vitality with a score of 16:12.
Best Outsiders cards:

- Dust 2 - 70% win rate.
- Ancient - 60% of wins.
Do not forget that the Russian team continues to ban the Nuke map.
fnatic form
The nineteenth team in the world rankings played horribly at the IEM Road to Rio 2022 Europe RMR A, but still managed to make it to the Brazilian Major.
At the start of IEM Rio Major 2022, the European team performed well, but only in terms of the result. In fact, fnatic bounced back in games with Cloud9 and OG, thus being one step away from the "legends".
However, here the BO3-series happened to the team, which, as expected, turned into a defeat from MOUZ. And now it's getting interesting, because fnatic has a very limited map pool in my opinion.
fnatic's latest results:
- Victory over Eternal Fire with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over 1WIN with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over Cloud9 with a score of 19:17.
- Victory over OG with a score of 16:13.
- Defeated by MOUZ with a score of 1:2.
Best fnatic cards:
- Overpass - 88% of wins.
- Nuke - 75% win rate.
- Vertigo - 67% of wins.
- Ancient - 67% of wins.
- Mirage - 50% of wins.
It is worth recalling that the European team has long abandoned the Dust 2 map.

Prediction for the match Outsiders vs fnatic
It seems to me that we will look at Inferno, Vertigo and Ancient. However, in any case, fnatic doesn't seem like a strong team to me to keep pace in BO3.
Yes, in some places the European team demonstrates good rounds. But, I repeat, as soon as the pace subsides, failures happen. As for the Outsiders, these guys should be pressing for experience. It is clear that the maps here are plus or minus parity, but otherwise the Russian team looks preferable.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the Outsiders team to win.
