Team Vitality will play with G2 Esports in the group stage of IEM Winter 2021. Who will win and advance to the playoffs?
Team Vitality
"Bees" successfully performed at the BLAST Premier Fall Final 2021, where they took second place, losing in the final to Natus Vincere with a score of 1-2. Thereafter Team Vitality successfully started the group stage of IEM Winter 2021, winning in two opening matches, and being one step away from reaching the playoffs. In the first round, ZywOo and the company beat MOUZ 19-16, and in the second they coped with Ninjas in Pyjamas, confidently winning on each of the two cards: 16-6 on Inferno and 16-9 on Mirage.
G2 Esports
The third team of the world ranking has been performing quite powerfully recently, having played in two finals at two previous tournaments. First, G2 Esports won the Battle of Betway 2021, beating MIBR in the decisive match with a score of 16-13, and then took second place at PGL Major Stockholm 2021, in the final of which she was defeated by Natus Vincere with a score of 0-2. At IEM Winter 2021, the shooters from G2 Esports already have two victories - 16:13 over TyLoo and 2:0 over Team Liquid.
Forecast
A very interesting confrontation, in which the second and third teams of the world ranking, who are in excellent shape, will come together. It's difficult to predict the winner, but I think it's worth betting that it will come to the third card.
