Hokori vs The Cut Prediction: Hokori will win

On November 22nd, there will be a match between Hokori and The Cut. Hokori was great at TI11, surprising almost all the fans, but how will they do at this tournament?

Hokori is currently one of the best teams in all of South America. Much of the credit for this title is due to its excellent performance at The International 11. Not only did no one expect the team to make it to the main tournament of the year, but the final result there surprised even more. In the group stage, Hokori suffered only two losses in nine games, although the group was quite difficult. It's a shame, but this team was eliminated in the first round of the playoff stage.

A few days ago Hokori lost to Lava 0-2, but there was a bit strange match, Hokori got a technical defeat on the first map and was quickly defeated in the second, with almost no one from the main squad playing. No need to focus on that game.

The Cut is unashamedly one of the worst teams in North America. By some miracle, they were in the first division in the last DPC season, but finished in last but one place. That said, let's not forget that North America is now rightfully considered the weakest region in the world.

The Cut can only beat some kind of a Tier 4 opponent, something like Arkosh, felt, or Eternity, on a stable basis. Admittedly, all of these organizations fall apart after a couple of months of playing together because of the region's instability.

The Cut had a terrible BTS Pro Series Season 12: Americas, and after the break, which lasted about a month and a half, its level of play has not improved a bit.

We sincerely hope that Hokori's good performance at The International 11 gave them a great boost of motivation. The players on this team play at an excellent level, there is no point in arguing with that. It is likely that the Peruvians (and Brazilians) have been training for the last weeks and are well prepared for this tournament, because Hokori has a great chance to take the title. The Cut with their current lineup is not capable of being competitive at this level, unlikely to win at least a map. So we can take Correct Score 2-0 for odds of 1.61 at Bet365. As an alternative, we should consider Maps Total Under (2.5) at 1.48 as offered by 1xbet, which is a good bet in case The Cut wins unexpectedly by the same score.
