Let's go.
Falcons Form
Let's open the analysis of the match Falcons vs Dynamo Eclot with a look at the Falcons uniforms. In this match the star-team are playing as favourites with odds to win at around 1.4.
For the whole year 2023 Falcons were, as they call it, in search of themselves. They started the professional season with appearances at B-Tier tournaments: Thunderpick Bitcoin Series #2, OMEN WRG Challenge 2023 and CCT West Europe Series #1. At the first two, they celebrated a top-2 finish, and at the more prestigious CCT, a top-8 finish.
Later tried to make it to the Paris Major . Had two attempts, at BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023: European RMR A and BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023: European RMR B. Both were unsuccessful: top-11 and top-6.
In the middle of the year, Falcons continued to bang their heads against the wall. Top-13 at ESL Challenge League Season 45: Europe, Top-10 at ESL Championnat National Spring 2023 and Top-24 at Thunderpick World Championship 2023: European Series #1.
Tried to qualify for IEM Sydney 2023, but fell off at the top-64 stage in the open qualifiers. As a Saudi Arabian club they got a slot at Gamers8 2023, where they played to the best of their ability, which is Top 16.
- Falcons roster: Snappi, Magisk, maden, SunPayus, s1mple, dupreeh.
At the end of the year Falcons tried to put together DreamTeam. So far they are doing so well, because they failed in the first tournament with the new squad. That was BLAST Premier: Spring Groups 2024, where the team finished top-12.
At IEM Katowice 2024 they got to the IEM Katowice 2024 by ESL Ranking points. There they were ranked in the top 10 before the tournament's Long Shogpeg, but for what merits - a big mystery.
IEM Katowice 2024 Falcons started with a defeat against the best team of Turkey - Eternal Fire. After losing to the Turks, Falcons were close to crashing out of the tournament in a lower bracket match against Rebels, but managed to stay afloat thanks to a 2-1 win. In fact, a similar situation happened in the match against CoL, where Falcons gave up the first card, but cameback on the second and closed the series with a third. Later they defeated NaVi, and at the end of the championship they took the top 4, Ledgeiv to the future champions from Team Spirit.
Later they played at ESL Pro League Season 19, where they completely failed, finishing in the top-28. IEM Dallas 2024 started with a loss to G2, but then confidently ran over Monte with a score of 2-0. However, the Falcons were not enough for much more and at the end of IEM Dallas 2024 they finished in TOP-9-12.
Before the performance at IEM Dallas 2024 they visited Challengers at DreamHack. They got to IEM Dallas 2024 thanks to ESL rankings.
IEM Cologne 2024 Play-In Long We started with a match against Eternal Fire, where Ledge won 1-2. Next was a match against ALTERNATE aTTaX in the lower grid and a clean win for Falcons. They got into the group stage after beating BIG 2-1, and in the first match of the group stage they fought MOUZ, but lost 1-2. They stayed afloat with a 2-1 win over Vp. However, they couldn't go far, because after the meeting with FaZe, Falcons finished their performance at IEM Cologne 2024 on top 9-12.
At ESL Pro League Season 20 they started their performance with a match against FURIA (1-2), and then they beat ATOX (2-0) without any problems. However, they were not able to go far, because in the next match they lost, dropping out at the TOP-28 stage.
Later Falcons played at Thunderpick World Championship 2024, where they again failed miserably: TOP-16 is not a good result.
ESL Challenger Katowice 2024 started with a dismal loss to sAw (11-13). The Falcons lost their next match to Eternal Fire and left the tournament at the TOP-8 stage.

Dynamo Eclot Form.
We continue the Dynamo Eclot vs Falcons match with the analysis of Dynamo Eclot's match form. In this match they will play as an outsider with odds to win at around 2.7.
Dynamo Eclot is from the pool of teams that get to the tournaments of PW Shanghai Major 2024: European RMR level almost by chance. However, the Czech club passed the closed qualifications, so they deserve to be here.
- Dynamo Eclot roster: nbqq, Dytor, forsyy, Blytz, kreaz, NEOFRAG.
Besides the performance in the closed qualifications, Dynamo Eclot had a very eventful year. However, the main part of the events "took place" on C-tier tournaments, where only sometimes it was possible to achieve success.
For example, among the most successful championships we can definitely mention United21 Season 11, European Pro League Season 15: Division 2, Tipsport Cup Winter 2024, and also ESEA Season 48: Main Division - Europe. Then there was a lull for a few months and then a few positive moments, such as another victory at Tipsport Cup Spring 2024, Tipsport Cup Summer 2024 and so on. The bigger championships, on the other hand, were much worse. Take at least the RES European Series, Dynamo Eclot took TOP-12 there, and at the qualifiers for the IEM Masters Rio 2024, for example, did not rise above TOP-32.
To tell the truth, Dynamo Eclot looked rather faded and took only TOP-5. However, thanks to the format it was enough to pass directly to PW Shanghai Major 2024: European RMR A.
Before playing at PW Shanghai Major 2024: European RMR A, Dynamo Eclot visited YaLLa Compass Fall 2024, where they reached the top 8. Considering Dynamo Eclot's performance throughout the year - making it to the top 8 is still nothing!
Dynamo Eclot Mappool
Eclot's most successful map is Ancient, where the Czech club has 15 wins and 4 losses. Next is Dust 2, where Eclot have won 8 wins and have 5 losses. Also worth mentioning is Inferno with 11 wins and 7 losses.
With a plus winrate is Mirage, where Eclot has as many as 41 matches with 24 wins and 17 losses.

Predicted result of Dynamo Eclot vs Falcons at PW Shanghai Major 2024: European RMR A
Although Falcons have looked terrible for most of their time on the TIR-1 stage, they should be able to eat a team of Eclot's level without any problems.
Bottom line: Falcons win.
