Astralis vs Faze Clan

The final match of the ELEAGUE CS:GO Premier 2017 is taking place in less than 2 hours, and the Danish powerhouse Astralis is taking on the newly emerged top contenders FaZe in a best of 3 for the first place spot and $500,000.

Going into this many have FaZe as the clear favorites to take this final match, and we agree with that sentiment. Even though the two teams recently played against each other in the ESL Pro League, and each of the teams took a map, we see a team that is coming into their own and really showing that they really are the best team in the world at the moment.

It will certainly help that karrigan (former Astralis player) now plays for FaZe and knows the opponents strengths and weaknesses, game plans and strategy. It also helps that they have the best player in CS:GO right now on their team in NiKo, who on his better days is able to carry teams on his own.

Really looking forward to this match and like FaZe to win this. We might recommend a bet on FaZe to win 2-0 in the finals if you want a bit more risk, but I'm going to post it as a straight up win in case they decide to blunder a map.
