Endpoint vs. Movistar Riders Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 8/8

Endpoint and Movistar Riders will face each other in the FunSpark ULTI 2020 - European qualifier. The online CS:GO tournament has sixteen teams competing for a $15,000 prize pool. The first-placed team wins the entire amount and the top two qualify for the $300,000 offline FunSpark ULTI 2020 tournament. The group stage has a double-elimination GSL format with best-of-three grand finals.

The 42nd ranked Endpoint has a mixed International roster with the majority of its lineup from The United Kingdom. The UK is not well-known for producing talented top tier CS:GO professionals, but Endpoint players have broken the trend and carved a name for themselves on the International stage. With a 1.13 rating, Dutch player, CRUC1AL is important to Endpoint’s performance. The team has a decent map pool that includes the likes of Inferno, Overpass and Train.

Movistar Riders has a Spanish roster but has undergone some roster changes very recently. The team is still missing a player as they recently benched EasTor from the roster. The instability arising from the recent roster change is bound to impact Movistar’s performance in the tournament.

Pick: Endpoint ML (-122 @ Pinnacle)

I am taking Endpoint to win this match as the team has stability and a higher rank compared to Movistar Riders. The Spanish players are yet to announce their fifth member and the new player will have just a few days to practice with the team.
