Syman vs. GamerLegion Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 7/27

Syman and GamerLegion will meet in the swiss round 1 of the Nine to Five 2, and Syman is a strong favorite in this best of three map tilt. These sides have met once before, and Syman won that match.

The Kazakhstani side Syman displayed some strong showings at the Eden Arena Vibes Cup Malta 4 as they beat lvlUP, NAVI Junior, and AVEZ, but they couldn’t make a surprise in the semis against Gambit Youngsters. Syman won five of the last eight games and has a 50.0% win rate over the past three months. In that span, Syman performed well on Train (66.7%), while they were weak on Nuke (27.3%) and Inferno (35.3%).

GamerLegion suffered an early elimination out of the Eden Arena Vibes Cup Malta 4 after losing to Illuminar and PACT, and they are hoping to leave a much better impression at this tournament. The European team won just two of the previous seven matches and has a 36.4% win rate in the last three months. During that period, GamerLegion was average on Mirage (50.0%) and Overpass (50.0%), while they didn’t play well on Inferno (25.0%) and Dust2 (33.3%).

Pick: Syman to win (-200 @ BUFF.bet)

Syman won the only head-to-head duel between these teams, but I am not backing them just because of that. GamerLegion is in poor form recently, and although they will have a chance to make an upset here and win at least one map, I am going with the favorites. Syman played well at the previous tournament, and I think they will continue with fine form.
