ORDER vs. AVANT Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 8/7

ORDER and AVANT will meet in the upper bracket semifinal of the DreamHack Open Summer 2020 Oceania, and ORDER is a strong favorite to win in this best of three map clash. These sides have met on 16 occasions before, and the series is currently tied at 8-8.

ORDER didn’t play a match since early July when they managed to qualify to the DreamHack Open Summer 2020 Oceania with a couple of victories over Skyfire and Ground Zero, winning four of five maps in the process. ORDER won 14 of the previous 15 games and has an 84.4% win rate over the past three months. In that span, ORDER was dominant on Train (87.5%) and Mirage (80.0%), while they showed the “weakest” displays on Nuke (64.3%).

AVANT played their most recent game at the ESL Australia &NZ Championship Season 11 where they beat Paradox 2-0 in the Upper semis and will play Rooster in the Upper final. AVANT won eight of the last nine matches and has a 68.0% win rate in the last three months. During that period, AVANT was excellent on Dust2 (71.4%) and Nuke (70.0%), while they were average on Train (50.0%).

Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (+129 @ GG.BET)

Five of the previous six best of three map matchups between these teams produced a maximum of three maps. ORDER is a firm favorite here, but don’t expect an easy win against the team that beat them on eight occasions already. I wouldn’t recommend betting on the winner; go with over 2.5 maps instead.
