AVEZ Preview

AVEZ has a Polish CS:GO roster that includes some big names like Byali. The team has been putting up some decent results of late, including victories over Apeks and Tikitakan. However, their victories always come with an additional disclaimer as they are not able to defeat lower-ranked opponents. In recent weeks, AVEZ has lost matches to NAVI Junior, Gambit Youngsters and Syman.

Vertigo, Overpass and Train are the best maps for AVEZ. The team is ablet o have a strong CT defense on these mps giving them an advantage in most of its games. AVEZ has not been in the best form recently. However, the team could do well with some improvement in strategies and tactics.

With a 1.17 rating, KEi is the best player on the team. He is very aggressive but also mixes it up with passive holds on some sites to allow his team to have the advantage into any match.

Izako Boars Preview

Izako Boars is a Polish CS:GO roster that is ranked 77th in the world. The team’s performance has not been up to expectations; however, Izako Boars has caused a few upsets in recent weeks. The team won its match against ALTERNATE aTTaX after a 2-0 victory over the Germans. They also won matches against BIG Academy and SG.pro in recent days.

Vertigo and Train are the best maps for the team a they have a strong T side performance on many of these maps. Vertigo in particular has been one of the team’s go-to maps as they can often secure an advantage on the T side of this map.

Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (+100 @ Bovada)

I like the over in this matchup. Izako Boars has looked particularly strong in recent games with victories over ALTERNATE aTTaX and SG.pro. Meanwhile, AVEZ has been relatively inconsistent in its performance. The familiarity of the two teams with each other will also play a big part in the final outcome of this match which will go the distance of over 2.5 maps.
