BLAST Premier Spring American Showdown – Odds and Predictions
paiN Gaming vs MIBR
Kicking things off, we have the first match of the weekend which features a Brazilian showdown between paiN Gaming and MIBR.
While the odds may have them as rather even, paiN Gaming definitely has the edge considering that they outplaced them at the most recent ESL Pro League Season 17 event. Specifically paiN Gaming finished 9-12th while MIBR finished 21-28th.
This region rivalry looks to be a fantastic CSGO match betting opportunity, crowning a South American champion. Will a South American team manage to win this event?
- Predictions: pain Gaming (2-1) MIBR
- Odds: paiN Gaming Outright Win (1.86), MIBR Outright Win (1.9)

FURIA Esports vs Evil Geniuses
Next South American team is a rather dominant one. In the context of their match against Evil Geniuses, FURIA are heavily favoured here.
Mainly, this is due to Evil Geniuses bombing out of ESL Pro League Season 17 with a dismal 29-32nd finish, while FURIA placed in the top 10.
Overall, FURIA are the clear favourites here, while Evil Geniuses have everything to lose.
- Predictions: FURIA Esports (2-0) Evil Geniuses
- Odds: FURIA Esports Outright Win (1.1), Evil Geniuses Outright Win (6.47)

Complexity Gaming vs Imperial Esports
Our third BLAST Premier Spring American Showdown betting pick are two teams who haven’t been performing very well recently.
Indeed, this event could be their opportunity to turn things around, as both placed worse than 21st at the ESL Pro League Season 17.
However, the CSGO odds favour Complexity due to better placements and a statistically stronger roster overall. Considering how evenly these team match up, anyone could take this match.
- Predictions: Complexity Gaming (2-1) Imperial Esports
- Odds: Complexity Gaming Outright Win (1.58),Imperial Esports Outright Win (2.32)
