Dignitas are set to return to the stage on Tuesday for their first official match since December 19, when Patrik “f0rest” Lindberg and his crew crashed out of Funspark ULTI 2021 European Playoffs #2 in third place. Likewise, 777 Esports haven’t been in a professional match since mid-December, when the Norwegian squad attended SWSG X-mas Cup.
Dignitas and 777 Esports last met in September, when Dignitas won 16-12, and according to the latest CS:GO odds, we should see a similar result on Tuesday. But considering both teams will be ring rusty, we can expect a more open affair that could be much closer than expected.
Still, Dignitas now field 777 Esports’ former best player, Haris “H4RR3” Hadžić, making Dignitas stronger and giving them some tactical advantage over the Norwegian team. So while you could make a case for 777 Esports to keep it close, Dignitas are a far more appealing pick with a 3.5-round handicap.
Dignitas -3.5 rounds

While ENTERPRISE esports did reasonably well in December, most of their success came against weaker squads. Record-wise, ECSTATIC achieved far less in their recent outings (0-5), but unlike ENTERPRISE, they had to face tough teams. That includes Copenhagen Flames, SINNERS Esports, Dignitas, and Nemiga Gaming, who they met on December 15 in their last official match.
Despite ECSTATIC’s poor form, they should be strong favourites to win this bout. That is largely because ENTERPRISE lost their best player, David “forsyy” Bílý, to SINNERS last Wednesday.
ECSTATIC should win, but we expect a scrappy performance from both sides while they work on getting back into the competitive rhythm. Admittedly, ENTERPRISE are weaker without frosyy, but they should be able to put together at least 11 rounds and keep it interesting.
Over 26.5 total rounds
