\u2028G2 Esports won their second big trophy of the year at the start of August when they defeated ENCE in the finals of Intel Extreme Masters Cologne 2023. It marked a significant win for G2 Esports, who re-emerged as a top contender in big events, but given their lack of success since February, it might’ve also been a complete fluke.<\/p>\n

9INE also competed in Cologne and looked good in the play-ins, where the Polish CS:GO squad defeated OG (19-17) and Team Liquid (2-1). Unfortunately, their group stage run was cut short with two back-to-back defeats against ENCE (1-2) and Cloud9 (2-1).<\/p>\n

Seeing G2 Esports priced as favourites for this match isn’t surprising, but at $1.25, they might be a bit overrated. In the latter stages of IEM Cologne 2023, G2 looked incredible, but before that, they produced several shaky performances, so it’s fair to question whether they have found the stability needed to stay at the top level.<\/p>\n

9INE are weaker than G2, but at $1.82 with CS:GO betting sites<\/a>, they’re a good bet to win at least one map.<\/p>\n

FAZE CLAN vs VIRTUS.PRO CS:GO BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nFaZe $3.75 at GG Bet<\/a> | VP $1.25 at GG Bet<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nAugust 17, 2023 | 17:30 AST<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

FaZe Clan have had their ups and downs this season, and they’re currently in a bit of a downward trend. After a solid run through BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2023, FaZe fell apart at IEM Cologne 2023, where they placed 9th-12th following two losses against G2 Esports (0-2) and Natus Vincere (0-2).<\/p>\n

And even during BLAST Premier, FaZe didn’t look particularly good, so their failed attempt to win the IEM Cologne trophy was hardly a shock.<\/p>\n

Virtus.pro rebuilt their roster in July with the signing of Pavel “PASHANOJ” Legostaev and Nikolay “mir” Bityukov, and they’ve since attended three events – including CCT Online Finals #2, which VP won last week. However, two days later, Virtus.pro crashed out of Intel Extreme Masters Sydney 2023: European Open Qualifier #2 in fifth-eighth place.<\/p>\n

Virtus.pro haven’t looked amazing, but neither have FaZe Clan. And even though FaZe field better players and will likely come out as the winners, this match can easily go the distance.<\/p>\n
