Gambit vs. AGF, Preview & Prediction - Free 11/28 CS:GO

One place in the Grand final of the DreamHack Open November 2020 awaits the winner of the duel between Gambit and AGF when they meet on Saturday. Gambit is a massive favorite in this Best of 3 encounter and if they beat the Danish side, they will face a better side from a clash between Spirit and Illuminar or Nemiga.

AGF Team Stats and Latest Results

AGF has been in a disappointing form lately as they failed to leave a mark at the ESEA Advanced Season 35 Europe, Cyber.Bet Golden League 2020, and Elgiganten Ligaen Season 15. However, their form improved a bit at the DreamHack Open November 2020 despite losing the opening game to Apeks. They managed to beat flowskola and get revenge against Apeks to make this far. AGF lost eight of the last 13 games.

In the previous three months, AGF was decent on Train (66.7%) and Inferno (65.5%), while they failed to get a victory on Vertigo (played twice) and didn’t play well on Overpass (20.0%) and Dust2 (27.3%). AGF will enter this game with a new lineup as they parted ways with Kristou, who represented the Danish team on 100 maps. At the moment we know four players who will face Gambit on Saturday: netrick (0.85), Lukki (1.01), fr0slev (1.09), and TMB (1.14).

Gambit vs. AGF Betting Preview

Gambit is an absolute favorite for every reason. They cannot be stopped right now, and if Nemiga couldn’t take one map out of Gambit’s hands in the previous game, I am pretty sure AGF will not make it on Saturday. Gambit dropped only one map in the last eight matches and maybe they will drop it in the Grand final, but not against AGF in the semis. I am backing the Russians to secure another swift victory and cover the handicap in the process.

The Pick: Gambit -1.5 (-143 @GG.BET)
