Prediction for NaVi – Team Spirit (CSGO, 31.08.2022)

Team NAVI and Team Spirit will battle each other in the first match of the ESL Pro League Season 16 tournament today, 08/31.2022. The derby between the teams will be interesting to watch. However, I want to note, dragons so far weak show themselves in the new season, especially after the majors.

Team NaVi looks much stronger, even considering the substitution, they were able to perform in the group stage of BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022 without Simpl, he had his own business, and as he returned, they just ran over strong Tir-1 teams. Now the team has to work on the mistakes they made earlier and get stronger.

It remains an open question on how ready for this confrontation Team Spirit? We’ll see.

Is the NaVi team ready for the match?

In general, the team of the top 1 in the world, I think yes they are ready, despite the fact that they got away in the group stage of BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022 from a team Complexity, but there was no S1mple. It didn’t surprise me much, usually after a rest the first cards are given to the Navi, it’s the norm. As for Complexity themselves, they were further away from everyone. And the team NAVI got together and also ran over everyone in the series bo1.

Yes while the team does not have that peak form, as there were replacements, reshuffles and work in the team. In addition to that, the soles in the other teams also put sticks in the wheels.

Recent NAVI results:

• A 9-16 loss to Complexity.

Let’s not forget that Born to Win gives up the Vertigo card.

Is Team Spirit ready for the match?

They occupy the top 16 of the world ranking, the only sensation of the team was at the PGL Major Antwerp 2022, after that only difficulties and bad results. After that, the team replaced their sharpshooter with whom they could play only one championship.

Yes, it was IEM Cologne 2022 where the team couldn’t even make it out of the group that prevented them from even breaking through somewhere.

It should be noted that the team trains a lot, but a sensible tactics and a good start to the championship should not be expected from them.

• Defeated 00NATION 2-1.
• Victory over Team Liquid, 2-1.
• Defeat by FaZe Clan with a score of 0-2.
• 1-2 defeat of FURIA.

Team Spirit’s best cards:

• Ancient – 75% wins.

NAVI – Team Spirit match prediction

Strongly doubt that the team Team Spirit will be able to surprise us, as does their team on Dota 2, so I think they will show a weak game on the server. Since the team navi now just gaining momentum and position, and they should show themselves better than they were on Blast.

What may be the preparation of the Dragons is unknown, they were able to get information about how the team behaves navi, based on performances in tournaments, but the Dragons have only trained and nowhere to show themselves. Will they be able to surprise a top 1 team somehow?

Doubtful, but they will try to take the Ancient map, where they at least have some chances, but NaVi in recent performances, also showed that they can play on it.

I would bet 2-0 for NAVI, I’m a total doubt that the team Team Spirit can win, and pick up the map.
