G2 Esports vs Team Spirit Predictions

The opening round of BLAST Premier: Fall Final 2024 will feature a clash between G2 Esports and Team Spirit, who have met twice since July. According to the latest esports betting odds, this rematch should end like the last two – in G2 Esports' favour.

The best Counter-Strike crypto betting sites have G2 Esports priced as 1.65 favourites to defeat Team Spirit, who are 2.20 underdogs. This is not too shocking given Spirit's recent dip in form, yet this is still a fixture between two elite teams.

Head to Head

G2 Esports and Team Spirit have met twice since with their current lineups, and both ended in G2's favour.

Team Spirit 2-1 G2 Esports – July 18, 2024
Team Spirit 2-0 G2 Esports – August 11, 2024

G2 Esports Form

G2 Esports did well in the BLAST Premier: Fall Final 2024 group stage, where they placed second with a victory against FaZe Clan and a 0-2 loss against Natus Vincere. Losing against NaVi does not look particularly good, but G2 Esports played well and took 18 combined rounds across Dust2 and Ancient.

This continues G2's solid form, which saw them win all but two of their last nine series, with just two losses against MOUZ and NaVi. On the other hand, G2 Esports have not beaten many top-rated Counter-Strike teams over that stretch, so it is fair to question their tag as 1.65 favourites.

Team Spirit Form

Team Spirit performed fairly well in the BLAST Premier: Fall Final 2024 group stage, but they could've shown more.

The Russian squad lost their opening match against Team Liquid (1-2) and bounced back with a close 2-1 victory against the shaky Astralis.

They won with a reverse sweep, which adds a bit more weight to the victory, but that does not change the fact that Spirit, like G2 Esports, have not looked great when faced with elite teams over the last couple of months.

Verdict

G2 Esports v Team Spirit

G2 Esports have been posting slightly better results of late than Team Spirit, yet that is not a very good reason to take their side in this contest. While G2 are 2-0 up in the head-to-head, both teams have been underperforming this event, suggesting we could be in for a closer affair.

Another reason why this is a likely scenario is Spirit's stronger map pool on Dust2, Nuke, and Vertigo, whereas G2 Esports only have a substantially better win percentage on Inferno, Ancient, and Mirage.

A closer affair is to be expected.
