Matchförutsägelse: Team Spirit - Sprout | Counter-Strike (CS2)

The first round of the play-offs in the Thunderpick World Championship 2023 Europe Series 2. The team from Russia Spirit and the team from Denmark Sprout meet. The winner will play in the next round against the strongest of the pair Bad News Eagles/9z, and the loser will be eliminated.

Sprout For a very long time I criticised this team for endless substitutions. However, it looks like the lads have finally found their form and squad after a year. Eight wins out of nine matches. A decent level of KC. The lads are in great shape. Spirit Great squad the lads have put together by boustanuating three members of the youth squad into the main squad. They have already won their first LAN trophy - PARI Dunav Party 2023. Four wins in a row. The team's form is good.

There have been no head-to-head meetings between the teams.

Sprout are currently in 6th place in Denmark and 56th in the rankings of HLTV. Spirit are currently ranked 3rd in Russia and are on the 21st position in the world top.

The Danes played two games in the European Pro League Season 10. In the first game the guys lost 1-2 to Czechs Enterprise, and in the second game with a score of 2-0 beat Poles los kogutos. Spirit won PARI Dunav Party 2023, beating 2-0 FORZE and 1WIN, and 2-1 9 Pandas and Virtus.pro.

Sprout:

Ihor w0nderful Zhdanov - top Frager and sniper of the squad with a 1.38 rating;Olle spooke7 Grundström - team riffler with a 1.12 statistic;Sebastian Tauson Tauson Lindelof - rookie and team riffler with a 1.10 rating;Rasmus Zyphon Nordfoss - team helper with a 1.12 statistic;Rasmus raalz Steensborg - squad captain with a 0.93 rating. Spirit: Danil 'donk' Kryshkovets - top fragger and riffler with a rating of 1.33;Artem 'ArtFr0st' Kharitonov - sniper of the team with a stat of 1.16;Boris 'magixx' Vorobiev - helper of the team with a stat of 1.10;Myroslav 'zont1x' Plakhotia - riffler of the team with a stat of 1.08;Leonid 'chopper' Vishnyakov - captain of the team with a rating of 0.98.

The coach of the Russian Spirit team is Sergey 'hally' Shavaev. He started coaching in 2021 Spirit Academy. So all the players of the current squad and their potential are familiar to him. And since February 2022 he became the coach of the main squad.

The Sprouts are in good shape and have finally started to win. But it's still a bit tough against strong teams, as exemplified by the match against Into the Breach. In my opinion, the Russians Spirit are just as strong. The guys are in great shape and should beat the Danes today.
