?G2 Esports and Team Liquid will clash on Saturday, July 15, in the second round of Group C at BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2023. Liquid will debut their new Counter-Strike roster as they turn a new leaf following the departure of two key members.

G2 enter BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2023 without any roster changes, which has its advantages. Unlike most other CS:GO teams, who decided to freshen up their lineups, G2 Esports have a pre-established synergy which should help shake off the rust, but even that doesn’t explain why they’re priced as $1.20 favourites to defeat Team Liquid.

At the offered CS:GO betting odds, Team Liquid are given a 23.1% implied probability of beating G2 Esports, which is very low for the first match following the one-month hiatus. Post-break matches are notorious for upsets, and nothing would suggest this year will be any different.

But there are question marks above Team Liquid and how they’ll do at the tournament. In June, Team Liquid benched Nicholas “nitr0” Cannella and sold Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski to Complexity, and filled in the gaps with Aleks “Rainwaker” Petrov and Robert “Patsi” Isyanov, who are solid players, but not star signings.

As a team that failed to accomplish much in the first half of the year, at least one major signing would be needed to inspire more confidence, but it’s not like Liquid are a terrible team. Rainwalker and Patsi are solid players and perhaps a bit underrated, so at the very least, Team Liquid should still be competitive at the top level.

G2 Esports are strong and serious candidates to reclaim their spot as the world’s no.1 CS:GO team. But given they are priced so short in this matchup, the value is with the outsiders.
