G2 is hoping to return to the top 10 in the CS:GO rankings, but it’s not going to be easy because of stiff competition at this tournament.

Endpoint Team Stats and Latest Results

Endpoint is on a three-game winning streak after defeating Evil Geniuses, 100PG, and Trident, but they will find it hard to make it four in a row. They failed to qualify for the playoffs at recent ESL Pro League Season 13 as they recorded only two wins and lost three, but it was a decent effort in general given the rough competition. Endpoint won 13 of the last 17 games.

Endpoint will perform with a new squad at this tournament, and at the moment we know four of the team members. They are robin (1.09), CRUC1AL (1.13), MiGHTYMAX (0.95), and Surreal (1.04).

G2 vs. Endpoint Betting Preview

Even though G2 is a higher-ranked team, I think the British team has a chance to make an upset in this one. I am not saying they are good enough to get a win, but they are good enough to take a map and cover a +1.5 handicap. Endpoint is in fine form lately, and that is giving me confidence they could potentially pull off an upset on Tuesday.

The Pick: Endpoint +1.5 (-137 @GGBET)
