Copenhagen Flames vs 9INE Prediction: Second team is more likely to win

On November 15, Copenhagen Flames and 9INE will play their next match in the CCT Central Europe Series 3. Which team will be stronger, we will know very soon. The meeting is scheduled to start at 12:00.

Copenhagen Flames

• Current HLTV ranking: #52;
• Changes over the last three months: +64;
• Best map: Ancient – 82% in 17 maps;
• Worst map: Overpass – 50% in 8 maps.

Copenhagen Flames performs with mixed success. The team was able to reach the European Development Championship 6 playoffs, finishing second in Group B. However, in Epic GOCL Season 1, the Danes finished in 5th-6th place out of eight teams. Copenhagen Flames won two of their last five matches and could not beat a team from the top 70 of HLTV once. 9INE will banish Inferno, so the Danes will almost certainly take Ancient as their pick. This is Copenhagen Flames' strongest map, so they should have an advantage. A small one, though. Despite the fact that 9INE rarely plays this map, they have good matches against strong opponents. The team beat HEET not too long ago, battling Bad News Eagles on equal footing. Copenhagen Flames should win on this map, but it is unlikely to be an easy ride.

9INE

• Current HLTV ranking: #38;
• Changes over the last three months: +25;
• Best map: Overpass – 77% in 13 maps;
• Worst map: Ancient – 33% in 3 maps.

9INE has risen in recent months in the HLTV rankings. Now the team is ranked 38th and feels very confident. Not so long ago, the Poles managed to win ESL Challenger League Season 42, beating BLUEJAYS 3-2 in the final. Thanks to that victory the team got a ticket to ESL Pro League Season 17 Conference. The squad was very strong, that's why the victory will surely strengthen the confidence of the team. Special mention should be made of KEi who has been showing great shooting and is now the main striking force of the Poles. As for the maps, 9INE should pick Overpass. The guys have a 77% win percentage on it and nine straight wins, in six of which they haven't allowed their opponents to score more than ten rounds. Copenhagen Flames looks weak on Overpass, it has not even played against serious opponents on this map. Defeats from ECLOT, IKLA speak for themselves. Nuke or Vertigo will be left for the third. Given the rise, tough form of 9INE, the team from Poland will have the advantage.

Expert Betting Tips

The teams should exchange picks, but it is worth noting that 9INE has more chances on the enemy's map. If it comes to the decisive map, the Poles should have the advantage, as they are in better shape in recent weeks. The win rate on Nuke and Vertigo is about equal, but 9INE shoots better.
