Control vs. PC419 Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 6/17

Control and PC419 will be facing in the league round of the ESEA MDL Season 34 Australia. Both teams are struggling and are at the bottom of the standings, desperately trying to get a win and snap negative streaks. These rivals have never met before, and this is going to be a Best of 1 matchup.

The Australian team Control are in a horrible form right now as they suffered five consecutive defeats and have just a 28.5% win rate over the past three months after opening the ESEA MDL Season 34 Australia with a couple of wins. During that period, Control had the most success when playing on Mirage map (66.7% win rate), but they are winless on Inferno, Nuke, and Train.

Their compatriots PC419 are even in a worse form lately as they won just one of 11 maps they played over the three months. PC419 are on an eight-game losing run and have a miserable 8.33% win rate in that span. When it comes to the maps, PC419’s only win came on Mirage (25% win rate), while they are without a win on Dust2, Nuke, Train, and Overpass.

Pick: Control to win (-110 @ bet365)

I usually avoid to bet on struggling teams, especially when they face each other, but on this particular occasion, I am going with a slightly better side – Control. Given that both teams played Mirage most frequently, I suppose they’ll select that map again. It’s going to be close, but I am backing Control to record their third win of the campaign.
