OG vs. Vitality Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 7/1

Team Vitality and OG will face each other in the upper bracket match of the cs_summit 6 Online: Europe. This event is a Regional Major Ranking tournament with the top teams earning RMR points. Teams with enough RMR points will secure an invitation to the ESL One Rio Major in November. Valve had to push back the Major to November due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The 2nd best team in the world, Team Vitality, has lots of talent and a high skill ceiling on its roster. With the world’s best player, Zyw0o, on the roster, Vitality’s squad tries to enable the youngster to put up an impressive performance in their matches. So far, the team’s reliance on Zyw0o as the heavy hitter for Vitality has worked wonders. They recently added misutaaa who fulfills his role on the roster and can step up occasionally when Zyw0o is not in his ‘normal’ form.

The 21st ranked OG is punching above its weight and is on a five-game win streak. OG has won matches against North, sAw, Elites, BIG and Heretics. However, the team rarely plays against top tier opponents and their match win-streak has to be taken into context. OG has a very tactic-heavy lineup, one that focuses on understanding the opponent's playstyle rather than try to win in raw firepower.

Pick: Vitality ML (-220 @ Bovada)

OG is in excellent form and can be a thorn in Vitality’s playstyle. However, the French players are in excellent form and have momentum on their side. I am taking Team Vitality to win this match and proceed further to the next stage of the playoffs.
