00 Nation’s transition to an international roster seemed like a great move when Thomas “birdfromsky” Due Frederiksen and his crew won Pinnacle Cup V. However, since then, the squad has been in a downright spiral and hasn’t won or come close to winning a single event.
That includes a last-place finish at CCT Online Finals #3 and ninth-16th at CCT East Europe Series #2. Over that stretch, 00 Nation have lost against Sprout (0-2 and 1-2) and OG (1-2), so it’s not like they’ve struggled against many teams. But considering the quality of opponents 00 Nation beat during Pinnacle Cup V, it’s clear that something isn’t right.
ECSTATIC have not accomplished much over the last month either, and they have played much weaker opponents. So even though ECSTATIC don’t have a worse record, they’re still a weaker team.
At a better price, backing the outsiders to win would be a solid choice. But even though 00 Nation are in shaky form, they have a much higher ceiling than ECSTATIC.

500 enter CCT East Europe Series #3 in shaky form. The Bulgarian CS squad has not won a single notable tournament since European Development Championship Season 7 in February and have not placed higher than sixth over their last three.
However, 500 have found some traction recently and are 4-2 across their last six outings, with wins against Anonymo Esports (2-0) and BetBoom Team (16-13). It’s a small bounce back in an otherwise concerning stretch of iffy results, but winning a few games to get back on track might be what 500 need.
MOUZ NXT enjoyed a run of six consecutive wins in early October, but they’ve since managed just one victory across the next five against Turow Zgorzelec (2-0) in CCT East Europe Series #3: Closed Qualifier. Even more concerning is that MOUZ NXT have recently lost against weaker teams than 500.
Neither team is in a good spot ahead of this match, and while 500 are rightly priced as favourites with online betting sites, this should be a close game. The two squads don’t share a map pool, suggesting they should win their pick and that we’ll see all three maps played.

TEAM FALCONS vs TEAM SAMPI CS:GO BETTING & MATCH DETAIL |

Team Falcons are reportedly close to forming a super team with Danny “zonic” Sørensen as the head coach. And some major changes are needed, considering the Falcons haven’t won much this season.
At the end of September, Team Falcons crashed out of CCT East Europe Series #2 in ninth-16th place, and a couple of weeks prior, they finished Thunderpick World Championship 2023: European Series #2 in 17th-24th. On a more positive note, the Falcons are 6-3 across their last nine outings, with wins against 9Pandas (twice), Turow Zgorzelec, B8, and los kogutos.
Results-wise Team Sampi are in a similar spot, but unlike Team Falcons, Erik “The eLiVe” Sith’s crew placed second at CCT East Europe Series #1 and won Tipsport Cup Prague Fall 2023: Online Stage at the start of the month. Still, Sampi are 4-9 since the start of September.
On paper, Team Falcons look stronger, but they shouldn’t be so pricey, which likely has to do with the brand recognition. At the offered betting odds, backing the underdogs offers more value.
Team Sampi to win
