G2 vs Eternal Fire Prediction 25 January 2025

📢Who will be the first participant in the grand final of the 1st season of BLAST Bounty? The upcoming match features a showdown between G2 and Eternal Fire. The Turkish team is once again considered the underdog, despite not losing a single map throughout the tournament. Can they defeat another top team? We'll try to determine that in our prediction.

G2

📝After NiKo's departure, the "samurai" still hold the 2nd spot in the world rankings by HLTV and have already reached the semifinals in their first tournament. The team's new player, HeavyGod, has performed excellently in all the past matches at the current event, even though the level of opponents wasn't very high. The team defeated B8 (2:1), BIG (2:1), and BetBoom (2:0) and are now preparing to face more high-class teams.

❗️It is worth noting that the total rounds on the first map under 22.5 played out in 7 of G2's last 8 matches. The same outcome occurred in 8 of Eternal Fire's last 9 games.

Eternal Fire

📝In the offseason, one of Turkey's most promising players, jottAAA, joined Eternal Fire, which undoubtedly can give the team an additional boost of motivation and enhance its firepower. The team has started the current season excellently and has not lost a single map throughout the tournament. Among their opponents were Fluxo, Falcons, and Vitality. At the moment, winning the tournament no longer seems like an unachievable task for them, considering their achievements in better times.

❗️Let's note that Eternal Fire wins with a handicap (+4.5) rounds on the first map in 17 of their last 18 matches.

Editorial Prediction

📊Both teams performed well in their previous matches; however, it's important to consider the difference in class between their opponents. The Turkish team knocked out much stronger opponents from the tournament and won the last head-to-head with m0NESY and company with a landslide score. In our opinion, Eternal Fire's victory is the most likely outcome in this matchup.
