Vitality vs Cloud9 Preview and Predictions: BLAST Premier Fall Final 2023

The second-ever Vitality vs Cloud9 encounter in 2023 will decide the first finalist in Copenhagen

These two squads faced each other for the first time at IEM Cologne a few months ago, where Vitality defeated the Russians in a 2-0 series. Fast forward to November, the Major winners are still looking strong, and Cloud9 are ready to face them again. Anything can happen with the tournament being played on CS2 and following an MR12 format. If you enjoy these matches and also like CSGO betting, here are our predictions for this Bo3.

Vitality

The Group Stage wasn’t a tough playground for Vitality as they managed to win both of their matches, securing a semifinal spot. Spinx had an incredible performance in the opening match, and the Paris Major MVP ZywOo delivered on the battle against Complexity. Overall, the French squad is looking strong and hungry for another title in 2023.

Cloud9

Heroic couldn’t stop the might of Cloud9 in the quarterfinals, as the Russians dominated with a 2-0 series to one step further into the Playoffs. However, defeating Vitality may not be as easy, and we will need electroNic and HObbit to continue their solid form.
