Maç Tahmini: OG - Vitality | Counter-Strike (CS2)

OG and Vitality will meet in the fifth round of IEM Rio Major 2022 Challengers Stage. It must be admitted that both teams are far from optimal conditions.

But if we could still expect some problems from OG, then the Danish-French team is clearly disappointing. And yet, Vitality is quite logically considered the favorite of the meeting, although personally I would prefer to pick a card from OG.

In general, quite an interesting confrontation awaits us, in which everything will be decided in detail. In other words, whoever makes fewer mistakes will break into the "legends" of the Major.

Form OG

The fourteenth team of the world ranking performs very ambiguously at IEM Rio Major 2022. Firstly, the European team managed to defeat Grayhound Gaming without feeling the opponent at all.

However, further OG suffered two defeats in a row, in both cases they did not finish their rounds. In general, the team clearly underestimated its excitement, otherwise it is definitely not weaker than fnatic and FURIA.

Fortunately, the team found the strength to beat IHC the day before. The only thing that confuses is the fact that OG again played insecurely in the series, almost losing the victory on Ancient. Moreover, it is clear that young people are clearly not playing out their situations.

Latest OG results:

• Defeat from Heroic with a score of 1:2.
• Victory over Grayhound Gaming with a score of 16:5.
• Lost to fnatic with a score of 13:16.
• Defeat from FURIA with a score of 16:19.
• Victory over IHC with a score of 2:0.

Best OG cards:

• Ancient - 78% of wins.
• Dust 2 - 71% win rate
• Inferno - 62% of wins.
• Vertigo - 60% of wins.
• Overpass - 57% of wins.

Let me remind you that the European team continues to refuse the Nuke card.

Form Vitality

The second team in the world ranking managed to strain their fans at the recent BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2022 Europe. And there, the Danish-French team started with an extremely strange victory over TYLOO, but then lost to Astralis.

As for the start at IEM Rio Major 2022, here zonic's team outplayed Imperial Esports in the class. But here Vitality had its first difficulties, as the team lost to GamerLegion and Outsiders at once.

Well, at least the day before the team managed to outplay Grayhound Gaming. And yet, in some places, Vitality gave way even against the background of such an opponent. And now the team is faced with the difficult task of not falling face down in the mud.

Vitality's latest results:

• Defeated by Astralis with a score of 1:2.
• Victory over Imperial Esports with a score of 16:9.
• Lost to GamerLegion with a score of 10:16.
• Lost to the Outsiders with a score of 12:16.
• Victory over Grayhound Gaming with a score of 2:0.

Best Vitality cards:

• Dust 2 - 78% of wins.
• Vertigo - 75% of wins.
• Inferno - 64% of wins.
• Nuke - 60% win rate.
• Mirage - 55% of wins.
• Overpass - 50% of wins.

Let's not forget that the Danish-French team continues to refuse the Ancient map.

Prediction for the match OG — Vitality

It's hard enough to predict the maps ahead of time, as we have a choice of five convenient options for each of the teams. And yet, I have big questions for Vitality, which even against the backdrop of Grayhound Gaming manages to lose some rounds.

In turn, the wards of ruggah are no better, because these guys also limped against the backdrop of the IHC. And yet, in such a match, the team can surprise, otherwise the nominal favorite is experiencing similar problems.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Handicap by cards (+1.5) for the OG team.
