North vs. Movistar Riders Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 6/24

North and Movistar Riders are facing in the cs_summit 6 Europe Group B opening match after both teams received invitations to the tournament.

The Danish team North are coming into this clash as favorites despite the fact they lost three of the previous four matches and have a 41.9% win rate over the past three months. Their latest game was at the ESL Pro Season 12 Europe when they lost to HAVU on three maps. When it comes to the maps during the same period, North are the most successful on Overpass (60.0% win rate), while they have been weaker on Inferno (20.0%) and Mirage (33.3%).

Movistar Riders are also playing in a hot and cold form recently, but they managed to avoid the third consecutive defeat with a victory over Unicorns of Love at the ESEA MDL Season 34 Europe. The Spaniards have a 46.0% win rate over the previous three months. In that span, Movistar Riders were producing their best displays on Inferno map (59.1%), while they were not playing well on Mirage (33.3%) and Vertigo (38.5%).

Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (-110 @GG.BET)

Four of North’s last five matches produced a maximum of three maps, and considering the form of both rivals, I don’t see a clear favorite here, unlike the bookmakers who are clearly favoring North. Instead of the winner, I am going to bet on the over as I expect to see two sides of the medal in this encounter and ups and downs from each team.
