Natus Vincere vs. Team Liquid

COUNTER-STRIKE: Blast Premier: Global Final (Europe) - Winners stage
Natus Vincere are simply an unstoppable force at the moment. They have two trophies in a row, including one from the biggest tournament in CS:GO history, PGL Major in Stockholm. Both there and at BLAST Premier Fall Finals, they didn't notch a single loss, an admirable result considering they were up against some of the world's true greats. That can't be said for this match. Liquid are far from the world's top team, and they themselves admit that they are a dead team, meaning that they don't train together at all anymore, as most of the squad knows very well that they will be finished with the New Year 2022.

While Natus Vincere have been consistently putting in great performances, including an incredible streak of 5 2-0 wins over teams like NIP, Vitality, Gambit and G2, or excellent form at the last BLAST, Liquid have been struggling with a lot of inconsistency. While they shot OG and Astralis at IEM Winter with no problem, they had no chance against G2 with a substitute and NIP with a new player. So I expect some quick action from NaVi.

My bet:
Match Handicap: Natus Vincere -1.5 @ 1.50 (bet365)

If “NaVi removed Vertigo” then this bet should be safe.

I just can’t join @ 1,5 as 2-0 could be tricky as it’s the tournament opener against Liquid who’s players are about to have last dance here.

I would take around 1,75 personally.

Good luck! I believe you will get

This tournament will be I always welcome upsets in this game, though I really like NaVi at this moment...

If NaVi win this one (and $500,000 from $1M prize pool) from the lower bracket, they will confirm their squad's legendary status!
