AVEZ vs. lvlUP Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 7/27

AVEZ and lvlUP will meet in the Swiss round 1 of the Nine to Five 2, and AVEZ is a massive favorite in this best of three encounter. These sides have never met before.

The Polish side AVEZ is in a hot and cold form lately but that didn’t stop the bookies to label them as huge favorites in this game. AVEZ suffered elimination out of the Eden Arena Malta Vibes Cup 4 as they lost 2-1 to Syman in the quarterfinal despite winning the opening map. AVEZ won three of the last eight games and has a 48.8% win rate over the past three months. In that span, AVEZ played particularly well on Overpass (64.1%), but they failed to impress on Inferno (28.6%) and Dust2 (33.3%).

Meanwhile, lvlUP snapped a three-game losing streak with a couple of wins over GRAFICIARZE and Singularity, not allowing a single map in the process. Still, the Serbian team returned to the losing ways against Syman and Izako Boars and exited early out of the Eden Arena Malta Vibes Cup 4. They won four of the previous ten matches and has a 44.4% win rate in the last three months. During that period, lvlUP was above average only on Train (57.1%), while they performed below par on Mirage (33.3%) and Vertigo (40.0%).

Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (+135)

AVEZ is a big favorite here and I have no doubt they will get a victory, but lvlUP certainly has a chance to take a map. Each of AVEZ’s last eight best of three map matches produced a maximum of three maps, which is a quite interesting fact for the bettors who prefer betting on the total; in this occasion on the over. Betting on AVEZ to win at low odds is not something I’d recommend, so you should try with over 2.5 maps at excellent odds.
