Team Vitality vs ATOX Esports Predictions

Team Vitality will meet with ATOX Esports on Wednesday, September 11, in the first round of Group D at ESL Pro League Season 20. It will mark their first-ever clash, and according to the current betting odds, ATOX have little to no chance of upsetting Vitality.

Priced at 1.01, Team Vitality are expected to crush ATOX Esports, who enter the upcoming series as 14.00 underdogs with the best Counter-Strike bookmakers. This is not too surprising as Vitality are one of the world’s strongest squads, whereas ATOX Esports are barely ranked inside the top 90 in the world.

Team Vitality Form

Team Vitality are one of the main candidates to win the ESL Pro League Season 20 trophy, and it is hard to find a good reason to doubt their chances to do so. They are in excellent form, having recently won both BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2024 and Intel Extreme Masters Cologne 2024 – yet those are just two of many excellent showings Vitality have produced this year.

Outside of their early exit from Intel Extreme Masters Katowice 2024 in February, Vitality have been nothing short of great, placing top-four in all tournaments except for Esports World Cup 2024, where they finished fifth-eighth.

Knowing what Vitality are capable of, they should not be doubted in any fixture, especially against a lower-ranked squad such as ATOX Esports.

ATOX Esports Form

ATOX Esports have done a good job this season for their standards. They have placed top three in all competitions but MESA Nomadic Masters Spring 2024 since April, which includes a runner-up finish at ESL Challenger League Season 47: Asia.

They are in good form too, having won 11 of their last 13 games. However, all that means very little, as ATOX Esports have not faced any great Counter-Strike teams over that stretch. The only notable opponents ATOX have played are IHC (2-0) and GR Gaming (14-16, 1-2).

So despite their excellent form, ATOX Esports should not do well against any good team, especially not Team Vitality, who are significantly better and a couple of tiers above ATOX.

Verdict

Team Vitality v ATOX Esports

Team Vitality are a couple of tiers above ATOX Esports, who enter ESL Pro League Season 20 as one of the complete outsiders. They might do well against other lesser teams in the group, but beating Team Vitality should be too much to ask for.

Team Vitality are the second-highest rated Counter-Strike team in the world, whereas ATOX are no.93, which paints a clear picture of how this series should go. This is Vitality’s game to lose and as long as they don’t make stupid mistakes, Vitality should win with ease.
