Match forudsigelse: MOUZ - B8 | CS2 (CS:GO)

MOUZ and B8 will meet in the first round of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR A. Here the favorite is clear without any further ado, although one shouldn't belittle the merits of the Ukrainian team who managed to get here without showing up anywhere.

However, the Mice must take advantage of the chance, because in matches like this they have to prove their worth. Furthermore, MOUZ are having a tough time of it this season, with their opponents often coming up short.

However, there's very little information on B8, as the guys played in deep TIER-3, but still beat someone. But I don't think that's enough of a fight for the Ukrainians.

So here I'd settle for a logical victory for the MOUZ team, which got a great seeding for the run-up.

Form MOUZ

The tenth ranked team in the world played well in the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 17, where they managed to outplay SAW and FURIA, however, they beat Heroic in the final.

However, in the play-offs, the European squad lost momentum, first with difficulty beating paiN Gaming and then losing to Cloud9 in the quarterfinals.

MOUZ also recently visited the play-offs of BetBoom Playlist Urbanistic 2023 where they managed to take on Apeks, but still didn't make the final due to their loss to FORZE.

MOUZ's latest results:

• A 0-2 defeat to Heroic.
• Victory over paiN Gaming with a score of 2-1.
• 1-2 defeat of Cloud9.
• 2-0 win over Apeks.
• 0-2 defeat by FORZE.

MOUZ's best scores:

• Ancient - 67% wins.
• Inferno - 60% wins.

It is worth remembering that the MOUZ team will not take any chances on the Anubis map.

Form B8

The 44th ranked team in the world managed to qualify for the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR. Moreover, the Ukrainians were saved from a bad situation when they suffered two defeats at the Long Cognegg qualifiers.

The squad then appeared in the open qualification for ESL Challenger Melbourne 2023, but was promptly defeated there by Spirit Academy and dropped out.

Recently, B8 also took second place at ESEA Advanced Season 44 Europe, but failed twice in the open qualifiers for IEM Dallas 2023. All in all, the team has occasional ups and downs, but we still have a representative of the lower echelon in front of us.

Recent B8 results:

• Technical defeat to DomiNation.
• 16-12 victory over AGO.
• 14-16 defeat to crisinjo.
• 19-15 victory over Viperio.
• 9-16 defeat at the hands of Taipan.

Top B8 scores:

• Mirage - 100% wins.
• Vertigo - 71% wins.
• Ancient - 71% wins.
• Anubis - 60% wins.

In turn, the Ukrainian team is not featured on the Overpass map.

Forecast for the match MOUZ - B8

As we are dealing with a big qualifying tournament, we'll do without The International League for now. After all, the Ukrainian team has played too little and often failed at their level.

On the other hand, the Mice usually confidently pass such qualifiers as there are enough teams on a lower level. The team has enough experience and knows how to survive in this format.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend to bet on MOUZ to win with a handicap (-3.5).
