FORZE ESPORTS vs MOVISTAR RIDERS CS2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |

FORZE Esports finished Group A in third place, with two defeats against Team Space and Monte. Since then, the Russian squad have played 14 series and won all but four, but they’ve completed just a handful of games since the departure of Aleksey “El1an” Gusev.
Movistar Riders enter this match in concerning form. They are 2-4 across their last six games, have not played an official match in three weeks, and on Friday parted ways with Antonio “Martinez” Martinez. The Spanish squad have yet to announce a replacement.
Even though FORZE also recently lost a key player, they are rightly priced as favourites with CS2 betting sites. A moneyline bet on the Russians is a solid choice, but we’ll trust FORZE to sweep.

Monte looked incredible in September and October. While they have continued posting good results since their solid performance at Intel Extreme Masters Sydney 2023, Monte have recently shown signs of struggle.
At the start of November, Monte lost against Virtus.pro, Looking4Org (now 3DMAX), and SINNERS Esports. On a more positive note, they have won their last four series leading to this match.
EYEBALLERS have been producing mixed results since the transition to Counter-Strike 2. In November, they placed 9th-16th at both CCT Central Europe Series #8 and CCT East Europe Series #4. And while EYEBALLERS have picked up some commanding wins over that stretch, we’ve rarely seen them defeat a stronger team.

SINNERS Esports enter ESL Challenger League Season 46 Europe looking to bounce back from their fourth-place finish at M?R 2023. Prior to the Czech CS2 tournament, SINNERS were competitive at CCT Online Finals #4 (5th-6th) and CCT Central Europe Series #8 (2nd), but the consistency is not there.
9INE are similar in that regard. They made the semifinals of CCT North Europe Series #8 at the end of October and reached the finals of ESL Mistrzostwa Polski Autumn 2023 a month later. Over the last two weeks, 9INE have beaten some notable squads, including 2-0 sweeps of Apeks and FORZE Esports, but they’ve also lost against Pera Esports and PALOMA.
Both teams have proven they can lose to anyone, so while 9INE looked better a month ago, this looks like a 50-50 match.

| Watch Live: | Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/ESLCS) |
Monte topped Group A with a perfect 5-0 record and a +34 round differential, proving again that they’re more than comfortable with the game’s new version. Since their final match of the first group stage, Monte have continued their strong form with wins against Aurora Gaming (2-1) and Team Spirit (2-0) and a close defeat against Virtus.pro (1-2).
Looking4Org placed second in Group A with a 4-1 record and just one close defeat against Team Spirit (13-16, 9-13). Like Monte, L40 are in excellent form, having lost just two of their last 17 series
Because Monte have played tougher opponents over the last week, their recent results mean a bit more, but it’s not like Looking4Org have struggled when faced with weaker teams. So, while Monte should be slightly favoured, we’re getting more value by backing the French squad.

SINNERS Esports finished Group B with a 4-1 record and +45 round differential and just one defeat against Apeks (1-2). They had the luxury of getting seeded into a relatively weak group, but it’s not like the level of opponents in 9INE’s group was much higher.
9INE won Group D with one defeat against Movistar Riders; however, they also dropped maps against Betera and IKLA. This isn’t too surprising for 9INE, who have become known to be somewhat inconsistent with high highs and low lows.
The Poles have a much higher ceiling than SINNERS Esports, which explains the offered Counter-Strike 2 esports betting odds. However, while 9INE should win, SINNERS have a better win rate on four of seven maps in the rotation, which suggests that there is a good chance we’ll see a three-map series.

These teams last met during ESL Challenger League Season 45 Europe in May, when Apeks won 2-1. However, Damjan “kyxsan” Stoilkovski and his crew are 4-3 across their last seven series, with defeats against BIG, FURIA Esports, and Aurora Gaming. They’ve also dropped maps against SINNERS Esports and Sprout.
1win have looked phenomenal over the last month, losing just one of their last 20 series. But they recently lost Kirill “Boombl4” Mikhaylov, who jumped over to Cloud9, leaving the team without their best player and in-game leader.
Apeks are not the most consistent team, but without Boombl4, 1win are significantly weaker.

FORZE Esports placed third in Group A with a 3-2 record, whereas Movistar Riders placed fourth in Group D at 2-3. Neither team showed much during the first stage of ESL Challenger League Season 46, and they’ve not looked amazing in the games leading up to this one.
With a mixed bag of results over the last week, it’s hard to rank FORZE Esports and Movistar Riders properly, and it doesn’t help that both teams have made roster changes. Still, with the departure of in-game leader Alejandro “ALEX” Masanet, Movistar have lost a lot more than FORZE, who have added Erkhan “gokushima” Bagynanov and Vladislav “Krad” Kravchenko as replacements for Aleksey “El1an” Gusev and Dmitry “sstiNiX” Khlebnikov.
Movistar Riders looked very shaky even with ALEX at the helm, and his departure alone is enough to suggest that the Spanish squad will struggle to get back on their feet.

These two teams last met in the first round of the ESL Challenger at DreamHack Winter 2023 European Qualifier earlier this month, when Apeks won 2-0. Since then, the team hasn’t shown much.
Apeks attended Intel Extreme Masters Sydney 2023, where they went 1-2. While that doesn’t sounds terrible, they have not looked great against weaker opposition.
Aurora Gaming haven’t won anything noteworthy this season, but since the transition to Counter-Strike 2, they have started gaining traction. They were 6-1 last week with only one loss against Heroic, and during that stretch, they’ve beaten teams that are just as strong as Apeks.
There’s no reason to have Apeks priced as favourites for this match. This is a 50-50 clash at best, so there is obvious value in backing Aurora.

Monte made a name for themselves by reaching the ESL Pro League Season 18 semifinals, and they’ve since placed top eight at Intel Extreme Masters Sydney 2023. Their form is solid and they’ve proven to be very consistent in beating lesser teams.
FORZE Esports haven’t found much success on CS2 yet, but they’ve had enough time to practice the new game version. Since the turn of the month, FORZE have attended three events, but their best placement was 9th-16th at CCT East Europe Series #3.
Monte might be a bit overrated due to their fairytale run in the ESL Pro League, but they’re still a class above FORZE.

Team Falcons are in freefall. This might have to do with the news of the impending roster restructure, with all team members set to be cut from the Saudi organisation. Whatever the case, Falcons are not playing well.
B8 are 1-3 after four rounds of play at ESL Challenger League Season 46 Europe, beating Space and taking a map off Monte. However, they’ve managed just three wins over their last 11 outings.
Team Falcons field better players, which explains the offered Counter-Strike esports betting odds, but considering their form and the current situation, B8 are a solid outsider pick.

| Watch Live: | Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/ESLCS) |
Aurora Gaming won against Sangal Esports (2-0) in the opening round of Group B and is expected to do well against SINNERS Esports, even though the Czech squad looked just as good in the first round when they swept Sprout. Still, Aurora already won against SINNERS (2-1) during CCT Online Finals #2, which might explain the offered CS2 betting odds.
Aurora Gaming is in solid form ahead of this match, with six wins from their last eight outings. SINNERS Esports have managed five wins over the same stretch, albeit against weaker opponents, so there is reason to believe that Aurora Gaming are the most likely victors.
Even though Aurora has shown more over the last couple of weeks, having them priced as -200 favourites for this match is a bit too short, especially considering how volatile games on CS2 can get. At the offered betting odds, over 2.5 maps at -120.48 is a far more appealing bet.

| When: | October 19, 2023 | 19:00 CEST |
| Watch Live: | Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/ESLCS) |
9INE were one of the most exciting teams just three months ago when they left a huge mark at Intel Extreme Masters Cologne 2023 with close games against ENCE and Cloud9. However, since then, the Poles haven’t shown much.
Besides winning the RES Western European Masters: Fall 2023 in September. 9INE have struggled to produce any notable results and are 1-6 across their last seven outings. That includes a narrow 2-1 victory against IKLA in the first round of ESL Challenger League Season 46: Europe.
ORKS have not produced much recently and don’t look like a serious threat to 9INE. They’re 0-1 ahead of this match because they had to forfeit their match against 1Win due to not being able to field a complete lineup. The issue has been resolved, it seems; however, poor form combined with roster instability doesn’t make them a very exciting bet.
Even though regional derbies like this usually result in closer games, 9INE is objectively better and should win without any issues.

Team Spirit picked up an easy win in the opening round of Group C against RUBIK, whom they beat 13-3 on Nuke and 13-4 on Mirage. But as impressive as that win is, RUBIK are not a good team, so it doesn’t mean much.
Their next opponents, Pompa Team, started their ESL Challenger League Season 46: Europe campaign with a 0-2 loss against SAW; however, they held on well. Despite facing a much stronger opponent, Pompa Team forced SAW to overtime on Ancient (13-16) and Vertigo (15-19) and came very close to winning both maps.
On paper, Team Spirit are much better, but Pompa Team is stronger than their recent record would suggest. They still deserve to be underdogs in this match, but not at +550. We like the underdogs with a map advantage.

TEAM LDLC vs B8 CS:GO BETTING & MATCH DETAIL |

| Watch Live: | Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/esl_csgo) |
Team LDLC and B8 will clash in the first round of the lower bracket at ESL Challenger League Season 45: Europe. It’ll mark their first meeting since February when B8 defeated Team LDLC in the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023: European RMR Qualifier A.
Since crashing out of the RMR, Team LDLC have looked solid, but they’ve not won a single tournament. Their best tournament results came at RES Western European Masters: Spring 2023 (fifth-sixth) and CCT West Europe Series #2 (fifth-eighth).
Like LDLC, B8 didn’t make it to the BLAST.tv Paris Major after crashing out of the RMR, and they’ve since played just six fixtures; however, most were compacted at the end of April, so it’s not like B8 will enter this match rusty. Still, B8 haven’t faced any tough opponents, so it’s hard to explain why they’re priced as $1.44 favourites.
B8 defeated Team LDLC last time, but the French squad have since made some changes and now look better, so there’s no reason to have them priced as heavy underdogs. Team LDLC to win at +162 or better is a solid value bet with esports betting sites.

LookingForOrg (former HEET) failed to qualify for the RMR and thus missed a chance to attend the Paris Major. However, even though HEET didn’t show much against the world’s top teams, they’ve done well for themselves.
At the end of April, the French squad won CCT Central Europe Series #6 and started their ESL Challenger League Season 45 campaign with a win against Into the Win (2-1), but proved to be no match for SAW (1-2). Regardless, LFO have shown decent results over the last few weeks.
The German CS:GO squad enter this match with a 2-3 record with wins against Insilio (2-0) and Dynamo Eclot (2-0) and three defeats against 9INE (1-2), Websterz (1-2), and Nexus Gaming (7-16).
Even before that run, Sprout haven’t produced anything remarkable, nor were they very consistent with their showings.
Esports bookmakers have LFO priced as favourites, which can be explained by looking at their title-run at CCT Central Europe Series #6, but if we zoom out, there isn’t much to set these two teams apart, so betting on LookingForOrg at -175.44 makes no sense. Value is with Sprout.

MOVISTAR RIDERS vs EX-PARTIZAN ESPORTS BETTING & MATCH DETAIL |

Movistar Riders had an explosive start to the tournament and demolished Iron Branch (2-0) before getting reverse-swept by EYEBALLERS (1-2) in the second round of the upper bracket. The Spaniards have since attended and won the ESL Challenger at DreamHack Melbourne 2023 by beating Rare Atom (19-16), Bad News Eagles (16-11), ECSTATIC (2-0), and Bad News Eagles (2-0) in the finals.
Their next opponents, ex-Partizan have not achieved nearly as much recently or throughout this season. Since getting cut by the Serbian esports organisation, the Balkan roster have attended two events, the Elisa Invitational Spring 2023 and CCT West Europe Series #3, but didn’t accomplish much, with a 21st-23rd and 23rd-24th-place finish, respectively.
Even in their recent outings, ex-Partizan failed to impress, making it tough to believe we’ll see an upset on Tuesday. Movistar Riders to win 2-0 at +120 is more than fair.

9INE enter the upper-bracket semifinal match against K23 following three dominant showings against 500 (2-0), Bad News Eagles (2-1), and Monte (2-0) in the opening rounds of the tournament. Besides competing in ESL Challenger League Season 44 Europe, 9INE also attended a few other events, including RES Western European Masters Spring 2023, which they won earlier this month.
Since the start of February, 9INE have been playing well, losing just six out of 31 series. However, three of those losses came from their last four outings against Aurora (1-2), Monte (0-2), and 500 (1-2).
K23 have looked just as good in the first two rounds of the tournament, beating HEET (2-0), For The Win Esports (2-0), and Into the Bin (2-0). Moreover, they’ve shown good form, winning 20 of their last 28 outings (along with three draws).
Even though 9INE played stronger teams and have managed a better win % over the last month, they didn’t impress at the start of March. K23 are underrated and are worth a bet with a map advantage at +110.

This will mark SAW’s first clash with Endpoint since mid-January when they won (2-1) during the ESL Pro League Season 17 European Conference. Endpoint have not found much success since and have been largely disappointing in their attempts to win a tournament, showing very little consistency since the turn of the year.
On the other side, SAW had an explosive start to the year but quickly slowed down, having managed to win nine of their last 17 series. But SAW performed well earlier this month, with wins against BELIEVE (2-0), Sangal Esports (2-0), and Bad News Eagles (2-0), while their only loss came against GamerLegion (1-2).
Endpoint can have their moments, but those have become very rare, making it tough to trust them to upset SAW. Both teams have their issues, and neither is very consistent, but SAW have the better squad here.

Monte and Apeks have both shown impressive growth this year, proving their worth in several second-tier tournaments. Monte have been steadily climbing the ladder since August 2022, while Apeks underwent many roster changes before gaining ranks in the global CS:GO ladder.
Apeks recently dropped from no.35 to no.52 due to their poor performances at CCT South Europe Series #3 (9th-16th) and ESL Challenger at DreamHack Melbourne 2023 European Qualifier, where they placed last. However, on a more positive note, Apeks found traction last week when they won against LDLC (2-0), Endpoint (2-0), and Copenhagen Flames (2-0).
Monte have achieved far less in their recent outings (1-4), with defeats against Aurora (14-16) and DomiNation eSports (13-16). So even though Monte have looked better throughout the last couple of months, their recent slump is concerning. At around +100 with CS:GO betting sites, we like the in-form Apeks better.

?Endpoint are going through quite a concerning dry streak, having failed to achieve anything across the first two months of the year. They first crashed out of the ESL Pro League Season 17 European Conference in January and have since not placed higher than top eight across three tournaments.
Last week, Endpoint attended European Development Championship Season 7, where they defeated Illuminar Gaming (2-0) but lost in the quarterfinals against Team GamerLegion (0-2), who handed them another loss on Saturday (16-8) in RES Western European Masters Spring 2023.
With a 4-8 record across their last 12 outings, Endpoint doesn’t look too sharp, which explains why they’re underdogs against 1win. The Russian squad bolstered its roster two weeks ago with the signing of Aleksey “NickelBack” Trofimov, coach Dmitriy “hooch” Bogdanov, and former Natus Vincere in-game leader Kirill “Boombl4” Mikhaylov.
Since losing first-up against Viperio (15-19) on February 16, this new-look roster has produced a seven-game winning streak. 1win are in excellent form and rightly priced as favourites with CS:GO betting sites for this affair. And even though this squad’s ceiling is questionable, 1win should make easy work of the struggling Endpoint.

?Let us cook (formerly ex-Team Finest) won their first two games of ESL Challenger League Season 44 Europe, beating EYEBALLERS (2-0) and Sangal Esports (2-1). But despite their strong run so far, they’re expected to struggle against forZe.
ForZe have been on a steady rise since the turn of the year, going from no.46 to no.28 in the global CS:GO rankings. They’ve yet to win an event this season, but forZe have claimed a bronze medal from the ESL Pro League Season 17 European Conference and have since produced three quarterfinal runs, most recently at CCT West Europe Series #1.
That looks much better than it is, considering that forZe are 4-1-8 over their last 12 fixtures and on a 0-1-4 run ahead of this bout. However, at the offered betting odds, Let us cook are severely underrated and look like great value.
(Note: some esports betting sites still have Let us cook listed as ex-Team Finest)

?Movistar Riders lost their opening tournament series against LDLC (0-2) and have since played 17, winning just seven. Over that stretch, Movistar Riders have lost against Complexity (2-0) and SAW (2-0) in ESL Pro League Season 17, but also Bad News Eagles, who beat them 2-0 two weeks ago.
Bad News Eagles are enjoying a solid start to the year, with two silver medals from CCT South Europe Series #2 and CCT Central Europe Malta Finals. Still, consistency isn’t their strongest suit, as seen in their poor showing in the Intel Extreme Masters Rio 2023 European Qualifier (0-2).
Bad News Eagles are a strong roster, but they can be hit-or-miss. So despite their dominant showing against the Spanish team the last time out, we are leaning towards Movistar Riders with a map advantage. They’ve improved over the last week and are poised to make this game hard on BNE.

Despite a solid start to the qualifiers, beating Turów Zgorzelec (19-15) and Astralis (16-14), Team LDLC dropped their next three games against G2 Esports (5-16), 1win (10-16), and B8 (1-2), thus missed out on reaching European RMR B.
Since that disappointing run, Team LDLC have played three games against GenOne (16-8), KRC Genk Esports (2-1), and HEET (2-0) and won all, so at least they’re in good form. The same can’t be said for 500, who are fresh off a 5-16 loss against ECSTATIC following a narrow victory (16-14) against ex-INVSN Team. Like LDLC, 500 didn’t impress at BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 European RMR Qualifier B (2-3), but they made it through the qualifier decider with a 2-0 sweep of HAVU.
Team LDLC have won more of their recent outings, but they haven’t beaten a single good team, whereas 500 might have lost more games, but they played well against decent opponents. Still, that doesn’t explain the latest CS:GO betting odds.
Team LDLC are underperforming, but this squad has solid players and holds a better map win rate on five out of seven maps in the rotation, making them a very appealing pick at the offered price.

Bad News Eagles have been on the cusp of breaking into the top 15 since November until the recent dip in form, which resulted in an exit from Intel Extreme Masters Rio 2023 European Qualifier and BNE slipping down the global CS:GO ladder to no.21. On a more positive note, the Kosovar squad has played well since then.
Recently, BNE attended CCT Central Europe Malta Finals, where they lost the finals against Eternal Fire (1-2), despite beating the Turkish squad twice prior (2-1, 16-14). However, from that tournament run, we’re mostly interested in Bad News Eagles’ dominant victory against Movistar Riders (16-8, 16-10).
It’s been just over a week since that series, so it’s fair to expect a repeat result on Tuesday. Even if Movistar Riders do better, they’ll have to improve significantly to match Bad News Eagles, who were in complete control the last these teams they met.

HEET last met with K23 in November, during the 43rd season of ESL Challenger League, when they won 2-0, with 16-14 on Nuke and 16-7 on Overpass. They’ve since played 14 games and produced mixed results and a 6-8 record.
Over the 14-game stretch, HEET took down Astralis, HAVU, and GamerLegion, as some of the most notable wins, but they’ve also lost against Sangal, 500, and EYEBALLERS. Not the best run, but the esports betting sites still have HEET priced as -138.89 favourites for this bout.
That makes sense if we consider that K23 have won just two of their last seven games and have played just one game since December 11, yet even that was an underwhelming 1-1 draw against YNT last week. Regardless, we still see K23 as the better team.
While we don’t know how the latest addition, Kirill “Magnojez” Rodnov, will perform, he has certainly performed well during his stint with Websterz and just might be the played K23 need to bounce back.

Team LDLC are reportedly nearing the signing of Aurélien “afro” Drapier, who would be a significant addition to the French lineup; however, we don’t know whether he’ll debut on Tuesday. But even if we don’t see him play, LDLC look like clear favourites.
Team LDLC enter this bout on a three-game winning streak, with victories against EPG Family, Ungentium, and 500, and are 6-2 over their last eight outings. In contrast, Movistar Riders are 0-5 with defeats against SAW, BLUEJAYS, forZe, Sangal Esports, and Dynamo Eclot. Moreover, the Spanish squad haven’t played an official match since December 15.
We should also consider that LDLC have a better map win% on five of seven maps in the rotation – except for Anubis and Mirage. However, LDLC have no games on Anubis and Mirage, while Movistar Riders’ win rate on the latter map is just 20%.
At -120.48 with BetOnline, we have to side with Team LDLC, with or without afro.
