Head to Head
Imperial Esports and Natus Vincere have yet to meet this season.
Natus Vincere Form
Natus Vincere enter Intel Extreme Masters Rio 2024 as the leading betting favourites to win the tournament on crypto betting sites. This is hardly shocking, given their form leading into the event.
NaVi have done incredibly well over the last month. They won ESL Pro League Season 20 and placed second at BLAST Premier: Fall Final 2024, continuing their strong showings - which started in June.
The Ukrainian squad have now placed top two in five of the last six tournaments, and they're 14-2 from the last 16 series with just two defeats agianst Vitality and G2 Esports. It does not get much better than that.

Natus Vincere will make no changes for this series.

Imperial Esports Form
Imperial Esports were not supposed to compete at IEM Rio 2024, but they got invited as a replacement for Rare Atom. This does not mean they stand no chance of making some noise on the big stage; however, the Brazilian Counter-Strike team will have a challenging series to kick off their campaign.
Imperial Esports are ranked no.20 in the world, which is a fine spot to be in, but they are nowhere near the level of top contenders such as Natus Vincere. They're 5-5 from their last ten with defeats against the likes of BESTIA, Fluxo, Sharks, and RED Canids, which is hardly inspiring.
In their more recent appearance in a big event, ESL Pro League Season 20, Imperial did not make it far and crashed out in ninth-12th place with defeats against M80 and Spirit.
Imperial Esports Squad & Team News
No changes for Imperial Esports.

- Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato
- Gabriel "FalleN" Toledo
- Marcelo "chelo" Cespedes

Verdict
Imperial Esports had their moments in August and September, but when faced with stronger Counter-Strike teams, success was hard to come by for the Brazilian lineup. Moreover, they have shown very little in the most recent outings, with losses against Sharks, RED Canids, and Fluxo.
Results like that inspire very little confidence that Imperial can do well against a world-class team like Natus Vincere, who look poised to secure a very comfortable win on Monday.
