Matchförutsägelse: FURIA - Imperial Esports | Counter-Strike (CS2)
ESL Pro League Season 17FURIA and Imperial Esports will meet as part of the starting quarter-finals of the upper bracket of the ESL Pro League Season 17 group stage. A very interesting derby, because after the recent failure, FURIA no longer looks like the sole leader of its region.
In addition, Imperial Esports has been picking up in recent weeks and the team is now on a streak of seven wins in a row. It is clear that in some places FalleN and the company beat anyone, but the guys got in shape and, with confidence, they can try to make out the game of a direct opponent.
In general, I cannot yet say that FURIA is ready to close any meeting with a score of 2:0, only if we are not talking about the Spaniards. And I have questions about drop, which in Katowice looked like the worst defensive midfielder among all those presented.
Therefore, here I would look at the map from Imperial Esports, since the coefficient allows you to believe in a team that has begun to gain confidence and find itself in recent matches. And in terms of composition, the guys do not look noticeably weaker, which only adds to the chances in such a derby.
FORM FURIA
The fourteenth team of the world ranking surprised everyone at the home IEM Rio Major 2022. Moreover, the Brazilian team looked very cool there, thanks to which they reached the semi-finals, almost closing out Heroic.
However, at the start of the new season, FURIA decided to fall into a deep hole, failing at the IEM Katowice 2023 Play-In. And after the victory over Permitta Esports, no one expected such a development of events when the team loses to IHC Esports and goes home.
What is most interesting, the team did not change anything, deciding to again trust drop, which over and over again let the opponents into its point. Therefore, I personally have big questions for the Brazilians, who have become too unstable and inconsistent.
Latest FURIA results:
- Victory over Natus Vincere with a score of 2:1.
- Defeat from Heroic with a score of 1:2.
- Victory over Permitta Esports with a score of 16:4.
- Defeated by BIG with a score of 1:2.
- Lost to IHC Esports with a score of 1:2.
The best FURIA cards:
- Mirage - 67% of wins.
Note that at the start of the new season, the Brazilian team refused the Inferno and Overpass maps.
Imperial Esports Uniform
Back in January, the 37th team of the world ranking shot at the ESL Pro League Season 17 Conference South America, thanks to which they made their way here to meet FURIA in the first match.
Then the Brazilian team went to play various qualifiers, but failed to qualify for IEM Rio 2023. Well, at least in the closed qualifier for the RMR tournament, Imperial Esports did not disappoint, having won three confident victories.
Of the latter, the team became the winner of the TG Masters Spring 2023, where it secured participation in the upcoming BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2023 Americas with four victories. In general, the Brazilians are on a roll, and with the latest victories, the guys began to gain some kind of confidence points.

Prediction for the match FURIA — Imperial Esports
I think that here we will see Mirage and Overpass as the main picks for teams. However, if you look at the situation from afar, something I do not quite believe in FURIA.
It is clear that in a month the team could catch up, but in Poland there was a complete failure, which is difficult to explain. Yes, and the figure of the defensive midfielder is still blushing, so it makes sense to play the opposite.
Imperial Esports, on the contrary, began to gain momentum on the sly. Despite the level of rivals, the guys scored several victories over Fluxo and 9z, and in the current realities, this is quite enough.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Handicap by cards (+1.5) for the Imperial Esports team.
