Team Falcons

The Falcons are once again fighting for survival in the tier-1 tournament. The team recently reached the playoffs of BetBoom Dacha Belgrade 2024, and it was a serious progress on the back of previous results. Team Falcons was also in the final of IEM Katowice 2024, but in the context of failures at RMR, qualifiers and other top events, it looks extremely inconsistent.

Dupreeh brought firepower and stability to the team. The five-time major winner can still give the heat to his opponents, and it's all the more strange that zonic removed him from Team Vitality in his time. It's good that the coach has realised that Team Falcons needs dupreeh and that he can achieve some results in the future. At the end of the spring, SunPayus played, the Spanish sharpshooter is expected to shoot well, and he started to produce positive performances more often. The Falcons can't be complained about in terms of individual play, the players make a lot of mistakes in the macro game, and suffer strategy on the cards. In 2024, they can only boast good winrates on Nuke (61% for 13 maps) and Vertigo (54% for 13 maps), but the latter has been reworked, and how Team Falcons will feel there is still unknown.

The match against G2 Esports was hard fought, and if it wasn't for a lost pistol round in the second half on Anubis, there's no telling how that match would have ended. With Monte an important win was achieved, and on a positive vibe the team approaches the battle with Team Liquid. The opponent can't find their game either, they can compete with them and try to pick up a win.

Team Liquid

The Liquid stumbled in the wrong place. In Dallas, Team Liquid won an important derby against Complexity (13-6), but then lost to 9Z (1:2) and went down to the bottom set. The cadiaN team created a problem for themselves and instead of playoffs they might be out of IEM Dallas 2024.

A bad result can be a reason for changes. Rumours are going viral online that cadiaN, YEKINDAR and Twistzz may leave Team Liquid. Bad news from the outside can affect the players' mood, and there may be disagreements within the game plan. Both Twistzz and YEKINDAR like to play good roles and gain stats, while cadiaN is not good with AWP. Skullz is very unstable, in one series he can switch on and be the best in Team Liquid, and in another series he can completely fail. The second, unfortunately, happens more often. YEKINDAR is doing well in Dallas, better than he did throughout 2024, but if his teammates don't support him now, the team will fall apart in no time.

Team Liquid has good winrates on a lot of maps, but they got them because of a lot of games against weak American opponents. In battles with teams from the top 20 it can compete on Dust2 (100% for three maps) and Ancient (100% for 4 maps), on the rest it is a complete failure. Liquid had a little progress in the spring - top-8 at ESL Pro League Season 19, top-6 at IEM Chengdu 2024 and second place at CCT Season 1 Global Finals. But that's not enough for the bosses of the organisation, and they need to make the playoffs at their home tournament, no matter how hard it is.

Expert Betting Tips

Bookmakers can't favour any team. Both organisations have assembled top lineups that can't show stability and be on top of CS2. For each, making the playoffs would be a satisfactory result. But, subjectively, Team Liquid has a slightly better chance in this encounter.
