Triumph vs. Chaos Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 8/8

Triumph and Chaos will face each other in Group A of the DreamHack Open Summer 2020: North America. The online CS:GO tournament has eight teams competing for a $90,000 prize pool. The first-placed team wins $35,000 and 100 ESL Pro Tour points. The group stage has a double-elimination GSL format while the playoffs are single-elimination best-of-three matches.

The 46th ranked Triumph has had mixed results lately. The team added a new coach, tacitus, in late June. The team has had some strong finishes in recent tournaments, often reaching the grand finals but failing to win the tournament. Triumph finished second in the Mythic Invite League Season 1, Mythic Summer Cup #1 and the WINNERS League - Season 4: North America Invite Division.

Chaos is ranked 35th in the world and features some of the most promising players from North America. While the team includes former IBP member, Steel, Chaos has talented individuals like Xeppaa and leaf. Train, Mirage and Overpass are the best maps for the team.

Pick: Chaos Handicap -1.5 Maps (-114 @ Pinnacle)

Chaos has been Triumph’s nemesis in the past couple of months. Triumph has lost to Chaos in the grand finals of multiple tournaments recently and this event seems to be no exception. Chaos has been one of the best North American CS:GO teams and with talented individuals like leaf and Xeppaa, the roster has a lot of potential. I am taking Chaos to win a -1.5 handicap bet in this match.
