Match forudsigelse: 9INE - Sprout | Counter-Strike (CS2)

9INE and Sprout will meet in the group stage of Brazy Party 2023 to play out the last play-offs not only from their quartet, but from all participants.

I don't think that in such a match and against such a weak opponent, the Polish team will falter. Moreover, 9INE shows signs of life, and even yesterday the team could easily beat Cloud9, but on the third card was sh1ro.

On the other hand, from Sprout should not be expected a breakthrough, although on the background of recent failures guys play even The International erezno. And still here I'd lean on the logical victory of the 9INE team.

Form 9INE

The nineteenth ranked team in the world managed to open up at the recent BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR B, where they outplayed G2 Esports, BIG and Vitality to knock out a place in the "legends".

Next up, 9INE went to IEM Rio 2023, where they marked a win over MOUZ, but losses to Heroic and Ninjas in Pyjamas ruined their chances of making the play-offs.

As for the performance in the group stage of Brazy Party 2023, here the Polish team has already managed to beat Imperial Esports, but the day before failed to cope with Cloud9 and rolled back half a step.

The latest results from 9INE:

• A 12-16 defeat to Heroic.
• 2-1 win over MOUZ.
• A 1-2 loss to Ninjas in Pyjamas.
• 2-0 win over Imperial Esports.
• 1-2 defeat at the hands of Cloud9.

Top 9INE scores:

• Nuke - 89% wins.
• Vertigo - 89% wins.
• Anubis - 73% wins.
• Overpass - 57% wins.
• Mirage - 55% wins.

It should be reminded that the Polish team hasn't played on Inferno map for a long time.

Sprout shape

The 49th team of the world ranking failed miserably in the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR A, where it recorded only one victory over Viperio and went home.

Already on arrival, Sprout relinquished their captaincy, incidentally failing Long Corner at ESL Challenger League Season 45 Europe, but snagging one win at the Elisa Invitational Spring 2023.

As for Long Corner in the Brazy Party 2023 group stage, here the Danish-Romanian squad struggled against Cloud9, and the day before outplayed Imperial Esports, although it was controversial in places.

Sprout's latest results:

• A 0-2 defeat to Apeks.
• A 0-2 defeat to Sangal.
• A 2-0 win over iNation.
• 1-2 defeat at the hands of Cloud9.
• 2-1 win over Imperial Esports.

Sprout's best scores:

• Anubis - 50% wins.

In turn, the Danish-Romanian team does not show up on the Nuke map.

Meeting statistics 9INE - Sprout

Within the current season the teams have played one meeting - in the closed qualification for IEM Rio 2023 the victory went to 9INE (2-1).

Forecast for the match 9INE - Sprout

I have nothing to say about Sprout, as they are objectively weak and their performance here is beyond logic. After all, the Polish team is a head stronger than their opponent, who can't figure out what they are going to play on their own.

And in other respects, Sprout, in terms of results, leave much to be desired, while the Poles need no introduction. So in this case I would recommend betting on 9INE to win.
