Virtus.pro and Zero Tenacity will clash on Thursday, August 22, in the first round of the BLAST Premier: Fall Showdown 2024 bracket stage. It will mark their first clash of the year, and according to the esports betting odds, it should be a very straightforward game for VP.

Counter-Strike bookmakers have Virtus.pro priced as 1.20 favourites to defeat Zero Tenacity, which gives them an implied 83.3% probability of winning the series. And even though that’s a high number, it might not be too far from the truth.

Head to Head

Zero Tenacity and Virtus.pro have yet to meet this season.

Virtus.pro Form

Virtus.pro are one of the top-10 ranked Counter-Strike esports teams, but this doesn’t mean much in the greater picture. While they found success in June and July with semifinal appearances at BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024 and Esports World Cup 2024, they’ve since not shown much.

This month, VP exited BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2024 and Intel Extreme Masters Cologne 2024 in 13th-16th-place, without securing a single victory across the two events. While they did show some resistance over the four series played, that is hardly inspiring.

Virtus.pro have not announced any roster changes recently.

Zero Tenacity Form

Zero Tenacity are a second-division team and a squad that likely won’t be accomplishing much at BLAST Premier: Fall Showdown 2024. They are ranked no.90 in the global CS esports standings with no notable results to show for.

While they did place top four at RES European Series #6, that remains their only accomplishment since winning RES European Masters Fall 2024. But more importantly, Zero Tenacity have not done too well in their recent outings, with losses against GamerLegion (0-2), KONO.EFC (9-13), and Rebels (11-13).

These results alone are a good enough indication that Zero Tenacity should have no business beating Virtus.pro, even though Virtus.pro haven’t been excellent lately either.

Verdict

Virtus.pro v Zero Tenacity

Virtus.pro haven’t been the most consistent team over the last few weeks. However, they remain one of the world’s top-10 rated squads and, unlike Zero Tenacity, they’ve had a chance to compete at the highest level.

Even though a weaker team could be able to do some damage against Virtus.pro, it’s hard to believe Zero Tenacity fit that bill, as they’ve not only failed to show anything remarkable when faced with a stronger opponent, but they’re also in terrible form.
