VP.Prodigy vs. Case, Preview & Prediction - Free 1/23 CS:GO

VP.Prodigy is a favorite in this Best of 3 encounter when they face Case in the Swiss round 3 (teams with a 0-2 record) of the Shadow League Season 1 on Saturday. Both teams are in a bad position after the opening two games, so the one who loses this game will be eliminated, while the winner will get at least one more chance to make the playoffs.

VP.Prodigy Team Stats and Latest Results

VP.Prodigy is in a disastrous form of eight consecutive defeats, but at least they improved a bit lately and managed to win a map in each of the last three losses. They lost to Invictus Int and Cult in the first two games of this tournament, and if they lose this one against Case, they will suffer elimination. VP.Prodigy lost nine of the previous 11 matches.

In the last three months, VP.Prodigy displayed the best performances on Dust2 (40.0% win rate), while they failed to get a victory on Vertigo (played three times) and Mirage (played once). It seems that VP.Prodigy will face Case with a new lineup after they parted ways with mefixs (0.87 rating). The rest of the team is h1glaiN (1.01), awesome (0.95), muR (0.92), Norwi (1.07), and Re1GN (1.07).

Case Team Stats and Latest Results

Case is a new team in the CS:GO tour and they played just four matches so far. Following the debut win over HONORIS, despite losing the opening map, Case lost the next three games to PACT, Vexed, and Budapest Five. The last two came at the Shadow League Season 1, and Case disappointed against Budapest Five as they won just one round on Train.

During that four-game span, Case won the only appearance on Inferno and was average on Overpass, while they didn’t taste a victory on Train (played once), Nuke (played twice), and Mirage (played once). Case assembled its current squad in December 2020 and appeared on ten maps with a record of three wins and seven losses. The lineup is made of land1n (0.95), dzt (0.94), delboNi (0.99), yepz (0.91), and n1ssim (1.10).

VP.Prodigy vs. Case Betting Preview

VP.Prodigy has an opportunity to finally snap the losing streak, but with such a disappointing form, I am not going to back them to get a win here. Although they are looking closer to get it on Saturday, I am sure they will drop a map in this one. Case will be highly motivated to show a better display following a sub-par performance against Budapest Five, and I am backing them to bounce back and at least win one map. That’s why I am going with Over 2.5 maps.

The Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (+111 @GG.BET)
