The Group B upper bracket semi-final of the BLAST Premier Fall Series 2020 will begin with the clash between Vitality and Complexity on Thursday, and the winner of this duel will meet a better side from the tilt between BIG and FaZe in the Upper final. Vitality is a favorite in this Best of 3 encounter.

Complexity Team Stats and Latest Results

Complexity returns to the CS:GO tour after an absence of a couple of weeks and bad displays at the IEM New York 2020 Europe, where they suffered a couple of defeats to Vitality and fnatic. They went through some changes in the meantime and will perform at the BLAST Premier Fall Series 2020 with a new lineup. Complexity lost eight of the last 11 games.

During the previous three months, Complexity was decent on Overpass (71.4%) and Vertigo (71.4%), while they didn’t win in the only appearance on Inferno and were below average on Train (40.0%) and Dust2 (40.0%). Complexity assembled its new lineup for this tournament and it consists of jks (1.15), RUSH (0.94), k0nfig (1.10), poison (1.10), and blameF (1.23).

Vitality vs. Complexity H2H Record

These rivals have met on five occasions before, and Complexity is leading the all-time series 3-2. However, Vitality won the most recent H2H clash when they secured a 2-0 victory at the IEM New York 2020 Europe earlier this month.

Vitality vs. Complexity Betting Preview

Although they have great individuals in the current lineup, Complexity never played with these five players and this will be their first-ever game together. That can be a problem against the in-form Vitality, who already beat Complexity a couple of weeks ago, and I am backing them to do it again on Thursday. Complexity will need more time to develop chemistry and adapt to the new lineup, and I don’t think they have a chance in this one.

The Pick: Vitality to win (-130 @PINNACLE)
