sAw Preview

The Portuguese squad sAw has had a string of good results lately. The 38th ranked team jumped five places in the recent HLTV rankings. With a deep map pool, sAw’s players are comfortable on almost any CS:GO map. The team has a distinct advantage in the map veto phase as they can use their deep map pool gain the upper hand against their opponents. Train, Nuke and Dust2 are the best maps for sAw. The team has over 70% win-rate on these maps, despite it being their most-played maps. The Portuguese players are also comfortable on Overpass and Train, where the team’s strong CT side gives them an advantage.

MUTiRiS is one of the best players on the team with a 1.15 rating and an impressive 82.7 damage per round. The player has excellent first-shot accuracy and his positioning allows him tog et the drop on his opponents.

CR4ZY Preview

CR4ZY’s CS:GO roster includes a Ukrainian CS:GO roster and they have not accomplished a lot in recent times. Nuke is one of the best maps for the team as they have an 86% win-rate. Their strength on Nuke comes from their quick rotations and strength on the CT side. CR4ZY recently won against LDLC, but have also lost against Nemiga and Lilmix.

The team’s inconsistency is a big reason for its low rank. Judging by the teams’ map picks, I would say there is a high chance of Inferno, Nuke and Train being the maps to be played in this match. This gives sAw an advantage as they are very comfortable on any map.

Pick: sAw Spread -1.5 Maps (-104 @ Pinnacle)

I am taking sAw to win this match as the team has been consistent in its performances. Meanwhile, CR4ZY’s CS:GO roster has struggled against lower ranked teams and this has affected the Ukraininian CS:GO team’s rankings.
