Match forudsigelse: MOUZ - ENCE | CS2 (CS:GO)

MOUZ and ENCE will meet in the grand final of IEM Dallas 2023. Who would have thought that the Muskies, after their disappointing results in recent months, would be able to qualify at all.

As for ENCE, the team showed themselves quite well on the tournament grid, on top of that beating FaZe Clan twice. And objectively, in today's reality sAw's charges have noticeably improved, both in terms of Long Cog aggression, and in the late game timings.

Anyway, that's my point. Anything can happen in the finals, and MOUZ, emboldened by the proximity of success, can again show the "game of life". So it makes sense to believe in a card from the "mice" which looks quite good on Ancient.

And yet ENCE looks more stable on the dice, for which they've clearly earned a trophy. In other words, the squad is clearly poised to win, and if they don't falter, they could easily shut out the Mice. So I'd lean on the ENCE team to win here.

MOUZ form

The eighteenth ranked team in the world managed to fail at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage, from where they took away three defeats to Ninjas in Pyjamas, OG and GamerLegion.

However, the European side played well in the group stage of IEM Dallas 2023, where they suffered only one defeat at the hands of Heroic, but also got past fnatic, FURIA and OG.

As for the play-offs performance, here MOUZ continued to surprise as they first passed Astralis and then knocked out Heroic, showing some incredible play in terms of Long Sogpeg aggression and exchanges.

MOUZ's latest results:

• A 0-2 defeat to Heroic.
• A 2-0 win over FURIA.
• 2-0 win over OG.
• Beat Astralis 2-0.
• Beat Heroic 2-1.

Top MOUZ scores:

• Inferno - 86% wins.
• Ancient - 64% wins.

It should be remembered that the European team have been refusing Anubis maps for a long time now.

ENCE uniforms

The eleventh team in the world ranking went well on the Challengers Stage of the last major, but faltered in the main stage of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023, gaining only one victory over Bad News Eagles and going home.

However, the European side confidently stormed through the group stage of IEM Dallas 2023, beating Complexity Gaming and FaZe Clan without a chance, and then eliminated Astralis for the semifinals.

ENCE also managed to get a very tough victory over FaZe Clan in the semi-finals. And the team managed to show their determination to win, as such a denouement at Ancient deserves to be screened.

The latest results of ENCE:

• A 0-2 defeat to Ninjas in Pyjamas.
• A 16-7 win over Complexity Gaming.
• Victory over FaZe Clan with a score of 2-0.
• Beat Astralis 2-1.
• 2-1 victory over FaZe Clan.

Top ENCE scores:

• Nuke - 78% wins.
• Ancient - 71% wins.
• Anubis - 62% wins.
• Vertigo - 60% wins.
• Mirage - 50% wins.

In turn, the European squad continues to deny Inferno.

MOUZ - ENCE encounter statistics

The teams played four meetings within the last season:

• ENCE's 16-9 win at IEM Dallas 2022.
• A 2-1 win for ENCE at the Roobet Cup 2022.
• MOUZ win at ESL Pro League Season 16 2-0.
• MOUZ win at IEM Rio Major 2022 by 2-1.

Interestingly, the teams picking Mirage and Nuke the most often.

MOUZ - ENCE match prediction

First of all, it's worth going over the maps. As it seems, Ancient with a minimal advantage goes to MOUZ. However, on Overpass, Nuke and, partly, Overpass, ENCE has much more groundwork and practice.

Secondly, sAw's wards look better now than they have ever done this season. And the tournament path with two victories over FaZe Clan deserves some respect.

In turn, the victory of MOUZ in the semi-finals is more to the credit of Heroic, who frankly went crazy and once again failed to overcome their psychological problems.

All in all, the conclusions remain the same as at the beginning of the canvas. Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on ENCE to win.
