Matchförutsägelse: Vitality - G2 Esports | Counter-Strike (CS2)
BLAST Paris Major 2023Vitality and G2 will meet in the first round of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023. Perhaps the teams don't need any introduction, as they are both contenders for a place in the play-offs.
And yet, given their recent successes and a head-to-head encounter at the same RMR tournament, I would single out the Danish-French team. And in recent weeks Vitality has played more as a team and not just ZywOo.
It is clear that G2 has confidently made it through the Challengers stage, but hand on heart, the Samurai have not played any direct competitors. So here I would lean on the Vitality team to win.
Vitality's form
The second team of the world ranking was very controversial in ESL Pro League Season 17, where after the extravaganza in the group stage already in the quarterfinals lost to ENCE and went home.
Next, the Danish-French squad arrived at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B, where apart from the loss to 9INE looked very decent, winning all their matches by a wide margin.
Moreover, Vitality recently won the IEM Rio 2023. The team started with a defeat at the hands of OG, but then dealt with all their opponents, creating a small reserve for this major.
Vitality's latest results:
- A 2-0 win over FaZe Clan.
- Defeated OG 2-1.
- Defeated BIG 2-0.
- Defeated Cloud9 by a score of 2-1.
- Beat Heroic 2-0.
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.
G2 form
The fourth team of the world ranking actually failed at ESL Pro League Season 17, where they suffered one defeat in the group and in the 1/8 finals failed to cope with ENCE.
Further on, the European team faced some problems at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B, where they were defeated by 9INE, and also failed to cope with Vitality in the tiebreakers for the place in the "legends".
As for the performance at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage, here G2 confidently walked over the heads of TheMongolz, Complexity Gaming and Apeks before going for a walk in Paris.
G2's latest results:
- A 2-0 win over Cloud9.
- A 0-2 loss to Vitality.
- Victory over TheMongolz with a score of 16-11.
- 16-9 win over Complexity Gaming.
- 2-0 win over Apeks.
Top scorers of G2:
- Inferno - 80% wins.
- Nuke - 78% wins.
- Anubis - 75% wins.
- Ancient - 67% wins.
- Vertigo - 67% wins.
In turn, the European squad continues to deny Overpass.
Vitality - G2 encounter statistics
In the current season the teams have played one meeting - on BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B the victory went to Vitality (2-0).
Vitality vs G2
Let me remind you that at the RMR tournament the teams played on Anubis and Mirage where G2 didn't come close. I concede that Inferno or Nuke might fall out this time, although Vitality seems a bit brighter on paper.
Again, the main conclusions are based on the recent results of the Danish-French squad, which played strongly in Rio de Janeiro. For my part, I wouldn't draw conclusions on G2 after Challengers Stage, as TheMongolz, Complexity Gaming and Apeks are no indicator.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on a Vitality team win.
