Matchförutsägelse: Vitality - ENCE | CS2 (CS:GO)

Vitality and ENCE will meet in the second round of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 to fight for their second win and a chance to play in BO3 tomorrow.

We are faced with two equal teams who deserve to get into the play-offs. Both Vitality and ENCE have plenty of motivation. The latter are going undefeated in the majors and are showing a good game.

However, an hour earlier the Danish-French team managed to show character in the game against G2 Esports, which, it seems to me, is a good help. Therefore, I would lean on the Vitality team to win here.

Vitality's form

The second team in the world rankings played well in the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B, where they suffered only one defeat against 9INE, and after that with victories over G2 Esports and Monte they made their way into the "legends".

After all this, Vitality won the IEM Rio 2023. The Danish-French outfit quickly recovered from their Long Soppeg defeat by OG to post a strong streak of victories.

As for the Long Saugus in the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023, Vitality were able to pull off a hard-fought victory over G2 Esports. However, the boys also managed to avoid a comeback by winning crucial rounds.

Vitality's latest results:

• A 2-1 win over OG.
• A 2-0 win over BIG.
• 2-1 win over Cloud9.
• 2-0 win over Heroic.
• 16-13 win over G2 Esports.

Vitality's best scores:

• Nuke - 100% wins.
• Anubis - 83% wins.
• Vertigo - 75% wins.
• Inferno - 75% wins.
• Overpass - 67% wins.
• Mirage - 60% wins.

Let's not forget that the Danish-French team is steadily giving up Ancient.

ENCE form

The ninth team in the world rankings was at the Brazy Party 2023 online tournament, where they snatched only one victory over GamerLegion but lost to SAW and Astralis before making the play-offs.

Nevertheless, ENCE had an excellent showing on the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage where they took on OG, Ninjas in Pyjamas and FaZe Clan without too much trouble.

And in the first round of the main stage of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 European team confidently walked over Bad News Eagles, again showing a strong game, albeit against a weak opponent.

Recent ENCE results:

• A 0-2 defeat to Astralis.
• 16-6 win over OG.
• Victory over Ninjas in Pyjamas 16-9.
• Defeated FaZe Clan 2-1.
• 16-9 win over Bad News Eagles.

Top ENCE scores:

• Ancient - 80% wins.
• Nuke - 80% wins.
• Mirage - 60% wins.
• Vertigo - 60% wins.

In turn, the European squad has consistently given up maps Inferno.

Meeting statistics Vitality - ENCE

In the current season, the teams have played one meeting - at ESL Pro League Season 17, the victory went to ENCE (2-1).

Forecast for Vitality - ENCE

Here the teams are as equal as possible to each other, and even at the same ESL Pro League Season 17, all three games were close. And yet Vitality is almost the main favourite right now, especially after their victory in Rio de Janeiro.

It's clear that ENCE certainly won't give up, but it seems to me that in general the team is slightly lighter than the opponent and has a better chance to break under pressure.

So in this case I would recommend betting on a Vitality team win.
