Sinners are favorites in this Best of 3 encounter when they take on Cult in the quarter-final of the Shadow League Season 1 on Saturday. The winner of this clash will advance to the semi-final and meet a better side from the duel between Project X and Sangal, while the losing team will be eliminated.

Cult Team Stats and Latest Results

Cult is one of the newest teams that joined the CS:GO circus this year, and they played just four games so far, all four at this tournament. The Ukrainian side lost their first-ever game to Lyngby Vikings but won the next here against VP.Prodigy, Budapest Five, and GamerLegion, dropping only one map in the process.

During that four-game span, Cult won the only appearance on Dust2 and played well on Inferno (66.7% win rate) and Train (66.7%), while they were average on Nuke. Cult is playing with the current lineup since January 2021 and appeared on nine maps with a record of six wins and three losses. The team members are fenvicious (0.98 rating), rAge (1.28), Senpai102k (0.87), DemQQ (1.01), and j3kie (1.22).

Sinners secured their place at the European Development Championship 2 thanks to victories over Lyngby Vikings and Lilmix, while they beat Invictus Int, Vexed, and Sangal to make it to the playoffs at the Shadow League Season 1. They didn’t experience the best of times at the Snow Sweet Snow 1, though, as they suffered three defeats in four matches to forZe, GODSENT, and PACT. Sinners won 12 of the last 20 games.

In the previous three months, Sinners won the only appearance on Overpass and were decent on Inferno (75.0%), Vertigo (66.7%), and Dust2 (60.0%), while they failed to impress on Train (38.5%).

Cult vs. Sinners Betting Preview

I like Sinners more in this one and I think they will take the victory. However, Cult showed some great displays in the last two wins over Budapest Five and GamerLegion, not losing a single map along the way. That’s why I am having second thoughts on the winner of this clash and I decided to avoid betting on it. Backing Over 2.5 maps has more value, especially considering that three of Sinners’ previous four matches produced a maximum of three maps.

The Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (+112 @GG.BET)
