Selectah vs. Team Excellency Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 7/27

Selectah and Team Excellency will face each other in the Nine to Five #2 Online CS:GO tournament. The Nine to Five Cup is an online CS:GO tournament with a $50,000 prize pool. The tournament started with sixteen teams in the first group stage. Eight teams advanced to the next phase. The winner of the tournament receives $35,000 in prize money with the remaining $15,000 going to the second-placed team.

Selectah is an unranked CS:GO roster with players from multiple nationalities. Edward announced his return to competitive Counter-Strike with this roter. The novelty of the roster is a problem for the squad as the players don't have enough synergy and coordination to ensure a strong performance. However, Selectah has a lot of firepower between Edward and jmqa. The two players are veterans in the CIS CS:GO scene and their exprience will come in handy against other teams in this tournament.

The 130th ranked Team Excellency has been slowly improving its ranks and results. The team has defeated opponents like Lilmix and Orgless 5 in its recent fixtures. Selectah has also lost matches to team slike CR4ZY, HONORIS and Wizards. The lack of a strong CT side has often forced the squad into a massive economic disadvantage, resulting in losses.

Pick: Over 2.5 (+131 @ Pinnacle)

I am taking Selctah and Team Excellency to go over 2.5 games. Selectah is relatively new but the players are well-known professionals who have a very high skill ceiling. With a mixture of experience of jmqa and Edward and the relative high skill ceiling of the newer and younger players, Selectah has the perfect package. However, the team lacks synergy and Team Excellency has the advantage in this aspect.
