ESB brings you Counter-Strike 2 betting predictions for three ESL Challenger League Season 46 Europe group stage bouts on Tuesday, October 31. Here are our selections for Apeks vs Aurora Gaming, Monte vs FORZE Esports, and Team Falcons vs B8.

These two teams last met in the first round of the ESL Challenger at DreamHack Winter 2023 European Qualifier earlier this month, when Apeks won 2-0. Since then, the team hasn’t shown much.
Apeks attended Intel Extreme Masters Sydney 2023, where they went 1-2. While that doesn’t sounds terrible, they have not looked great against weaker opposition.
Aurora Gaming haven’t won anything noteworthy this season, but since the transition to Counter-Strike 2, they have started gaining traction. They were 6-1 last week with only one loss against Heroic, and during that stretch, they’ve beaten teams that are just as strong as Apeks.
There’s no reason to have Apeks priced as favourites for this match. This is a 50-50 clash at best, so there is obvious value in backing Aurora.

MONTE vs FORZE ESPORTS CS2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |
|
|---|---|
| Best Odds: | Monte $1.33 at Betway | FORZE $3.25 at Betway |

Monte made a name for themselves by reaching the ESL Pro League Season 18 semifinals, and they’ve since placed top eight at Intel Extreme Masters Sydney 2023. Their form is solid and they’ve proven to be very consistent in beating lesser teams.
FORZE Esports haven’t found much success on CS2 yet, but they’ve had enough time to practice the new game version. Since the turn of the month, FORZE have attended three events, but their best placement was 9th-16th at CCT East Europe Series #3.
Monte might be a bit overrated due to their fairytale run in the ESL Pro League, but they’re still a class above FORZE.

TEAM FALCONS vs B8 CS2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |
|
|---|---|
| Best Odds: | Falcons $1.44 at Betway | B8 $2.62 at Betway |
| When: | October 31, 2023 | 19:00 CET |

Team Falcons are in freefall. This might have to do with the news of the impending roster restructure, with all team members set to be cut from the Saudi organisation. Whatever the case, Falcons are not playing well.
B8 are 1-3 after four rounds of play at ESL Challenger League Season 46 Europe, beating Space and taking a map off Monte. However, they’ve managed just three wins over their last 11 outings.
Team Falcons field better players, which explains the offered Counter-Strike esports betting odds, but considering their form and the current situation, B8 are a solid outsider pick.
