OG vs. Team Spirit Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 8/9

OG and Team Spirit will face each other in the FunSpark ULTI 2020 European tournament. This online CS:GO event has sixteen teams competing for a $15,000 prize pool. The first-placed team receives the entire prize money . The top two teams receive an invitation to the $300,000 LAN tournament.

OG Preview

The 15th ranked OG has an international CS:GO roster comprising many in-game leaders. The team also added mantuu to bolster the firepower and potential. OG has been out of action for a long time and won matches against Heroic, Godsent and North. Despite the team’s failure against top tier teams, OG has been relatively successful against Tier-2 opponents. The team has a lot of experience and firepower, but will take some time to crack into the top ten.

Nuke and Inferno are the best maps for the team. The team's strategic depth gives it a massive advantage on these maps. OG has a strong CT defense on Train which is the best map for the team. OG is also good on Mirage, but does not have much success on the map as it fails to have a strong defense on the A bombsite.

With a 1.16 rating, Mantuu is one of the best players on the team. The youngster has been crucial to OG’s success in recent weeks and continues to put up strong performances on an individual level.

Team Spirit Preview

Team Spirit has a Russian CS:GO roster with players who have a lot of experience ni the game. Most of the players have been together for a very long time and their synergy with each other defines their playstyle. Team Spirit is very strong on Inferno, Train and Overpass. The team has over 80% win-rate on Overpass and Train.

Despite these maps being CT sided maps, Team Spirit has a strong T side performance on these maps. Spirit is ranked 20th in the world and its last match was a 1-2 loss to Natus Vincere.

With a 1.26 rating, mir is one of the best players on the team. However, the player can shine only because his teammates allow him space and freedom to shine in a team environment.

Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (-109 @ Pinnacle)

I am taking this series to go the distance of over 2.5 maps. Both teams are very strong and the difference between their ranks is minimal. OG has been out of action for a long time, so they might not be in the same form as before the player break.
