Counter-Strike – Blast Pro Series Madrid
Friday, May 10
- Ence vs Navi
Ence hasn’t entered or played in a tournament since Counter-Strike Season 7 China. There, they battled well, going 3-1 during the season with wins over Vici, Faze, and Spirit. The lone loss was to Vitality. Navi beat Ence in the playoffs.
Navi has had multiple matches since beating Ence. They won the Counter-Strike Season 7 China and are 3-1 in their last 4 matches. They’re playing better, and has been more active, than Ence. They’ll beat their opponent again on Friday.
eSports Betting Pick: Navi
- Astralis vs NIP
Astralis had a tough time at the Blast Pro Series in Miami. They went 2-3 with wins over Navi and Cloud9, and losses to MIBR, Liquid, and Faze. Since then, they’ve gone 3-0, though.
Ninjas in Pyjamas (NIP) should challenge Astralis on Friday. While Astralis got to beat ex-3DMAX, HellRaisers, and BIG in their last 3. NIP battled Fnatic and Liquid in their last couple. Astralis could be in a battle on May 10. NIP gets the nod.
eSports Betting Pick: NIP
Saturday, May 11
- Cloud9 vs NIP
After taking on Astralis on Friday, NIP battles Cloud9 on Saturday. Cloud9 has been up and down in their last 5. They looked great beating Envyus, Luminosity, and Bad News Bears. But, they looked terrible in an 0:2 loss to MIBR, and an 0-2 loss to INTZ.
Cloud9 was a mess at the Blast Pro Series in Miami. They lost 5 straight to Astralis, Liquid, Faze, MIBR, and Navi. NIP should do just enough to get the victory on Saturday.
eSports Betting Pick: NIP
- Astralis vs Cloud9
This should be an interesting Counter-Strike match no matter if Astralis or Cloud9 beat NIP in their battles. Cloud9 might have played awful at the Blast Pro Series in Miami, but their form could be turning around. At least they have won 3-of-5. Can they hang with Astralis?
Astralis lost 3 in a row, but has provided the bounce back with 3 straight wins. If you look at Astralis’ previous form before the 3 losses, they dominated. They should easily handle Cloud9 on Saturday.
eSports Betting Pick: Astralis
