FaZe Clan vs Players: The Russian players will take revenge

Another major tournament in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive discipline kicks off on March 9. ESL Pro League Season 15 takes place from March 9 to April 10. 24 teams will be competing for $823,000 in prize money. The tournament features the best teams in the world, so there's no doubt that fans will be treated to a game of the highest level. All we have to do is enjoy the game. With exactly half of the participants left in the tournament, the top 12 teams will decide between themselves which of them is worthy of the title of ESL Pro League Season 15 champion.

On April 5, FaZe Clan and Players will play their opening game in the ESL Pro League Season 15 play-offs. We'll soon find out which team will be stronger and who will move on.

FaZe Clan got off to a poor start in ESL Pro League Season 15, but they pulled themselves together in the tournament and managed to perform at a fairly high level. The team got three wins in a row and qualified for the play-offs from third place. Considering their group, they deserve to be honored. I don't think the Inferno pick by FaZe Clan will come as a surprise to anyone. It's one of the worst Players' maps, while the Europeans have it at a very high level. They often pick it, though at ESL Pro League Season 15 not very successfully. Out of three matches on Inferno, FaZe Clan won only one. But I very much doubt that the Europeans this fact will stop from picking this map. Despite the fact that FaZe Clan will perform as a favorite on Inferno, Players will have their chance, it's not a hopeless map for her and win there has a chance.

Players have had a pretty smooth run in the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 15. The team was able to pick up four wins out of a possible five. The only defeat for the Russian team came from Movistar Riders who took first place at the end of the group stage without losing a single match. Sh1ro is having a great tournament, his indivudual rating is 1.37 and is second only to s1mple. As for maps, Players will be choosing between Overpass and Ancient. These two maps are at a good level with the guys right now, they are ready to play them against any opponent. Both maps look like a good option. Of course, the Russian players won Overpass twice in face-to-face meetings, but each match was very tight. The last match on Ancient was left to Players, and very confidently. The peak of this map looks even more believable, although it should be noted that the last two matches FaZe Clan played powerfully on this map. 

Players are in great shape and the guys can go to the next round. The bookmakers offer 2.03 for Players' win, which looks like a good option. You can also take the Players victory with a handicap (-5.5) for 2.66.
