by ESB’s free Counter-Strike: Global Offensive betting picks for Saturday focus on two ESL Pro League Season 14 bouts. Here are our best bets for Natus Vincere vs mousesports and FaZe Clan vs Evil Geniuses.

Even though Natus Vincere are a significantly more accomplished team than mousesports, we don’t believe this match will be as one-sided as the latest CS:GO betting odds suggest. That is not to say that NaVi will lose; however, we have to consider that ESL Pro League S14 is an online tournament and that it will mark NaVi’s only second official match since the player break.
Based on what we have seen happen in groups A and B, it’s fair to say that the results in Group C will be just as wild and unpredictable, especially if you consider that some teams struggle to show up online. There are, however, few exceptions, one of them being mouz (8-1 in their last nine online games).
NaVi will receive a lot of respect for their success last month, but as noted before, LAN results aren’t comparable to online events. Expect a close affair with all three maps played.

FAZE CLAN vs EVIL GENIUSES CS:GO BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |

|---|---|
| CS:GO Betting Odds: | FaZe $1.35 at GG Bet | EG $3.02 at GG Bet |

FaZe Clan have impressed many with their deep run at Intel Extreme Masters XVI – Cologne. However, even though FaZe performed admirably well in Germany, they are not exactly known for solid results in online tournaments.
Evil Geniuses are a huge enigma since you don’t know how they’ll do without Peter “stanislaw” Jarguz, nor can you accurately say how good they are since they have played only three games since June. What we do know, however, is that EG have not been too good for most of 2021.
While it’s fair to say that FaZe will perform worse online, they’re still facing a team with the lowest expectations in the group. A bet on EG with a map advantage at $1.65 is tempting, but there’s an equal chance that they get swept.
