Maç Tahmini: NaVi - Team Liquid | CS2 (CS:GO)
IEM Katowice 2023NAVI and Team Liquid will play in the upper bracket semi-finals of the IEM Katowice 2023 group stage, where they will compete for the right to qualify for the championship playoffs.
However, the losing team will not leave the tournament yet, but will go to knead the clay in the lower bracket, where it will be quite difficult, given the density in the group.
As for the match itself, I tend to consider NAVI the obvious favorite of the meeting, despite the “good” streak of losses from Team Liquid in head-to-head matches.
I would say the reason for this is the terrible form of the North American team, which, although they closed IHC, but because of the game on Inferno, I wanted to turn it off and forget about the "liquids".
Form NAVI
The sixth team in the world ranking with big problems played the group stage of BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023, where they beat Ninjas in Pajamas twice, but at the same time lost to G2 twice.
Moreover, in the Play-In the Ukrainian team did not look any better, because they coped with Complexity with great difficulty, although they could easily fly off already on the third map.
However, at the start of the group stage of IEM Katowice 2023, Born to Win changed noticeably. As a result, NAVI confidently beat Cloud9, which clearly indicates the work done on the bugs.
Latest NAVI results:
- Lost to G2 with a score of 0:2.
- Victory over Ninjas in Pajamas with a score of 2:1.
- Lost to G2 with a score of 0:2.
- Victory over Complexity with a score of 2:1.
- Victory over Cloud9 with a score of 2:0.
The best NAVI maps:
- Overpass - 60% of wins.
- Nuke - 50% win rate.
- Ancient - 50% win rate.
Do not forget that the Ukrainian team still does not play on the Vertigo map.
Form Team Liquid
The world-ranked fourth team played terribly in the group stage of BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023, where they lost twice to OG, but managed to cope with Complexity.
However, in the Play-In, the North American team played even weaker, as they lost to BIG in the first round and ended up with nothing. In general, Team Liquid showed a disgusting start, which does not fit in with the success of last season.
Fortunately, at the start of the group stage of IEM Katowice 2023, the team managed to crush IHC. And if not for the ending on Inferno, we could see "liquid" in the lower grid.
Latest Team Liquid results:
- Lost to OG with a score of 0:2.
- Victory over Complexity with a score of 2:0.
- Lost to OG with a score of 1:2.
- Defeated by BIG with a score of 0:2.
- Victory over IHC with a score of 2:0.
The best maps of Team Liquid:
- Mirage - 78% of wins.
- Anubis - 60% of wins.
- Inferno - 56% of wins.
In turn, the North American team continues to cross out the Nuke card.

Prediction for the match NAVI — Team Liquid
Considering the apparent crisis of the North American ideas, as well as the amazing transformation of the "Born to Win" in the game against Cloud9, I would bet on the latter.
It is clear that Team Liquid did not lose to NAVI three meetings in a row, but any series ends sooner or later. Yes, and the start from the "liquid" was so disastrous that I hardly believe in a miracle.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the NAVI team.
