CS2 eşleşmesine ilişkin tahmin forZe - Grayhound Gaming

FORZE and Grayhound Gaming will meet in the first round of the BLAST Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage. It's quite The International to watch this clash, although the Russian team is objectively the favourite.

On the other hand, Grayhound Gaming may pleasantly surprise at this championship, as the team has been playing a little more actively in recent months and has been giving problems to opponents from Europe and other regions much more often.

However, I wouldn't put too much faith in the Australian squad, at least not in this encounter. After all, FORZE can boast a good game in LAN tournaments, and the team is clearly more exciting than they are online.

Therefore, I would rely on FORZE to win here. Especially the Russian team has already beaten Grayhound Gaming at the same stage a year ago. Since then not much has changed except some changes in line-up.

FORZE uniform

The sixteenth team in the world rankings back in March managed to reach the final of BetBoom Playlist Urbanistic 2023 where they got defeated by Cloud9 without too much struggle, but the result is evident.

Next, the Russian team had a great performance in the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B, where they managed to lose two meetings, but still showed a cool game and got several important victories.

However, since returning online, FORZE have managed to lose at ESL Challenger League Season 45 Europe and CCT West Europe Series 3, showing far from the most confident game. Still, it's worth realising here that the team has been practicing more.

Recent results for FORZE:

• A 16-12 win over Ninjas in Pyjamas.
• A 0-2 loss to Monte.
• 2-0 win over Aurora Gaming.
• 1-2 defeat at the hands of Spirit Academy.
• 1-2 defeat at the hands of Looking4Org.

FORZE's best scores:

• Ancient - 75% wins.
• Anubis - 58% wins.
• Overpass - 55% wins.
• Nuke - 50% wins.
• Inferno - 50% wins.

Let's not forget that the Russian team has been steadily giving up Vertigo.

Grayhound Gaming uniforms

The 26th ranked team in the world performed well in the regional BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Asia RMR, where they went all the way without a loss, closing out TheMongolz in the process.

The Australian squad also recently competed at ESL Challenger Melbourne 2023, where they played hard in the group, picking up two wins over EG Black and Complexity Gaming.

However, Grayhound Gaming fell just short in the semi-finals as the team failed to hold on to their lead over Bad News Eagles. On the other hand, the team has never played so brightly in the last three years.

Grayhound Gaming's latest results:

• A 2-0 win over VERTEX.
• 2-1 win over VERTEX.
• Victory over EG Black with a score of 16-10.
• 16-11 win over Complexity Gaming.
• 1-3 loss to Bad News Eagles.

Grayhound Gaming's best scores:

• Nuke - 83% wins.
• Ancient - 80% wins.
• Inferno - 79% wins.
• Vertigo - 67% wins.
• Mirage - 50% wins.

In turn, the Australian team still doesn't play on the Overpass card.

Last season, the teams met once - the PGL Major Antwerp 2022 Challengers Stage victory went to FORZE (16:9).

FORZE vs Grayhound Gaming match prediction

I don't think the Australian squad will be able to clinch the result, as FORZE will come out in their usual form and start bending their line.

Clearly, Grayhound Gaming does not look like a team that will suffer three defeats and go home. However, it seems to me that the Aussies stand too little chance in this encounter.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the FORZE team to win.
