Natus Vincere (Na'Vi) vs. Gambit Youngsters Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 6/25

Natus Vincere and Gambit Youngsters will meet in the Group B decider match of the WePlay! Clutch Island after both sides went 1-1 in the opening two games at the tournament. This duel will be their second in three days following Gambit Youngsters’ 2-1 win in the opener.

The Russian side Natus Vincere bounced back from a narrow defeat to Gambit Youngsters on the opening day of WePlay! Clutch Island with a comfortable 2-0 victory over Hard Legion, losing just seven rounds in the process. Na'Vi are playing in a hot and cold form lately (four wins in the last eight games), while over the last three months, they have a 57.7% win rate. When it comes to the maps during the same period, Natus Vincere are the most successful on Overpass (60.0% win rate) and Nuke (58.3%), while they are without a win on Vertigo, but played just once on that map.

Gambit Youngsters couldn’t make another surprise at the tournament as they fell short to Virtus.pro, even though they had a 1-0 lead before losing heavily on Dust2 and Overpass. That defeat ended a three-game winning run, while the Russians have a 56.8% win rate over the previous three months. They were producing the strongest displays on Overpass map (77.3% win rate) and Mirage (69.2%). On the other hand, Gambit Youngsters showed the weakest results on Inferno (40.0%) and Dust2 (41.7%).

Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (+140 @GG.BET)

Gambit Youngsters already won two maps against Natus Vincere a couple of days ago, and the bookies are still convinced Na'Vi will win this game with ease. I am not, though, because I bet on Gambit Youngsters to cover +10.5 rounds spread and they fully delivered, and that’s why I am going to bet on them again. This time around, I am going with Over 2.5 Maps and the reason for that is simple. Four of Na'Vi’s last five matches produced a maximum of three maps, while that was the case in each of Gambit Youngsters’ previous three.
