In this betting preview, we’re taking a look at some of the best CS2 teams remaining in the competition.
FaZe Clan – Squeaky Clean
This tournament was always the best opportunity for FaZe Clan to improve their confidence, with Spirit, Vitality and Natus Vincere not present at PGL Cluj-Napoca.
Moreover, FaZe Clan has shined in the absence of the big dogs, dominating the Swiss Stage with a flawless 3-0 record over SAW, Eternal Fire and MOUZ.
After smashing SAW in the Quarterfinal, there’s no doubt that FaZe is the undisputed favourite in the PGL Cluj-Napoca Playoffs. Favoured to beat Falcons, it seems that MOUZ is their biggest rival at the tournament.
MOUZ, Astralis, Falcons – Any Hope?
Accordingly, we’re trying to figure out if anyone can take down FaZe, whether it’s in the Semifinals or in the Grand Final.
From the remaining opposition, MOUZ looks the strongest, according to CS2 betting betting sites. However, let’s not forget that MOUZ went 3-2 in the Group Stage, losing to the likes of FaZe Clan and Team Falcons who are both still in the competition. The only thing going in their favour is their recent signing of “Spinx” from Vitality, but it’s been a month and the honeymoon is wearing off.
And then there’s Falcons. In our opinion, the Falcons have the best chance of stopping FaZe. Going 3-1 in the Group Stage, they’ve already defied the odds by taking down Eternal Fire in the Quarterfinals.
After finishing 1-4th at the IEM Dallas European Qualifier, a win over FaZe would vindicate the extensive roster changes from early in the year.
On the other hand, Astralis don’t seem to be a contender.
