Match forudsigelse: Natus Vincere - BIG | CS2 (CS:GO)

Before the rosters met approximately six months ago during the group stage of ELEAGUE Major 2018 and then Natus Vincere turned out to be stronger as they managed to win over their opponents by the score of 16:01. We should not take into account the result of that meeting as by the standards of eSports a lot of time has passed since then and BIG had some changes in their roster.

Natus Vincere are one of the best teams on the modern professional stage and now they hold the third position in the world rating according to HLTV. “Born To Win” have improved their play shape and they won two tournaments in a raw - Zeus and Co became the strongest at StarSeries & i-League CS:GO Season 5 and CS:GO Asia Championships 2018. At ESL One Cologne 2018 the roster left the group with an effort, but at the playoff stage they defeated Fnatic and Astralis, which provided them with getting to the final.

Meanwhile, BIG is a strong German collective, that hold the 25 place in the world rating. Within last month the team managed to win ESEA Season 27: Global Challenge and to take the 5-6 position during ESL One: Belo Horizonte 2018. At the current competition the roster managed to surprise both their opponents and viewers - BIG, on their way to the playoff, they forced such collectives as MiBR and North out of the tournament, and at the playoff they defeated G2 eSports and FaZe Clan.

Bookmakers lean toward the team Natus Vincere, setting the coefficient of their win of 1,4, while the triumph of the German collective is evaluated as 2,8. We do agree with the opinion of the bookmakers and also suppose that “Born To Win” will be considered as clear favourites of the match, but we should not ignore BIG, as the support of home stands will make them do a lot which has been proved during the championship.
