Match forudsigelse: Team Spirit - Sprout | Counter-Strike (CS2)

Team Spirit and Sprout will meet in the fourth round of IEM Rio Major 2022, where they will compete for the right to stay in the championship. Frankly speaking, the Danish team made a sensation, because the day before they outplayed Ninjas in Pajamas.

Other than that, however, I'm not so sure about Sprout as the team is an obvious underdog and definitely doesn't deserve to go any further.

Well, the “dragons”, having suffered two close defeats in a row, should seize the opportunity, otherwise how could the guys play with a much stronger opponent without this.

Team Spirit Uniform

The thirteenth team in the world ranking managed to win the Flow FiReLEAGUE 2022 Global Finals, although Team Spirit then failed in the playoffs of CCT South Europe Series 1.

As for the start at IEM Rio Major 2022, here the Russian team managed to deal with Bad News Eagles, showing a very solid attack on the Ancient map.

And yet, further on, the “dragons” suffered two close defeats from FURIA and Outsiders, somewhere corny without finishing. Therefore, it makes sense to think that Team Spirit will try to solve their problems and work on the bugs.

Team Spirit latest results:

• Victory over ex-SKADE with a score of 2:0.
• Defeat from Tricked with a score of 1:2.
• Victory over the Bad News Eagles with a score of 16:8.
• Defeat from FURIA with a score of 13:16.
• Defeat from Outsiders with a score of 14:16.

Best Team Spirit maps:

• Vertigo - 75% of wins.
• Nuke - 67% of wins.
• Ancient - 67% of wins.

Do not forget that the Russian team continues to refuse the Inferno map.

Sprout shape

The 30th world ranking team became a sensation at the IEM Road to Rio 2022 Europe RMR A, where they took third place. However, the Danish team then rolled back to the factory settings, as they failed in the playoffs of the ESL Challenger League Season 42 Europe and Elisa Invitational Fall 2022.

If we talk about the start at IEM Rio Major 2022, here Sprout managed to lose to BIG and Team Liquid, as it seemed, having booked tickets for herself.

But the day before, the wards of BERRY unexpectedly fired, knocking out Ninjas in Pajamas from the tournament. Although in fact the team still does not look like the winner of any similar fight.

Latest Sprout results:

• Defeat from ex-Finest with a score of 1:2.
• Victory over UNGENTIUM with a score of 2:0.
• Defeated by BIG with a score of 11:16.
• Lost to Team Liquid with a score of 5:16.
• Victory over Ninjas in Pajamas with a score of 2:0.

Best Sprout cards:

• Overpass - 64% of wins.
• Vertigo - 64% of wins.
• Ancient - 62% of wins.
• Inferno - 60% of wins.
• Mirage - 54% of wins.
• Dust 2 - 50% win rate.

Interestingly, the Danish team refuses both Dust 2 and the Nuke map.

Match statistics Team Spirit — Sprout

As part of the current season, the teams held one meeting - at IEM Road to Rio 2022 Europe RMR A, the victory went to Sprout (16:12).

Prediction for the match Team Spirit — Sprout

I would be very surprised if Team Spirit loses here as well, since the team has interesting ideas, unless they start many rounds in a row in the late timings.

In turn, Sprout hasn't been impressive in this tournament yet. Let's be honest - the Danish team seems like a black sheep, and that victory over Ninjas in Pajamas frankly breaks out of the general logic.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Team Spirit to win.
