Nemiga enter this match off a 2-1 victory against CYBERSHOKE Esports, whereas Zero Tenacity swept GTZ.ESPORTS in the opening round of Group D, so it is fair to say neither had a very tough challenge in their first match of the qualifiers.

According to the latest betting odds, Nemiga Gaming are the favourites, likely due to the fact that they, unlike Z10, have had a chance to play much tougher teams recently during ESL Pro League Season 21. However, Nemiga did not accomplish much in the event nor have they shown anything spectacular since the turn of the year.

This match looks closer to 50/50 than anything else, making Zero Tenacity a more appealing bet at plus money.

Head to Head

Nemiga Gaming and Zero Tenacity have yet to meet this season.

Nemiga Gaming Form

Nemiga Gaming recently attended ESL Pro League Season 21, but they did not make it through the first stage, ending the event with a 2-3 record. This does not sound too bad, although their only two victories came against Mindfreak (2-0) and the struggling HEROIC (2-1).

On the other side, Nemiga lost to MIBR (1-2), NRG (0-2), and paiN Gaming (1-2). Since then, Nemiga have played CYBERSHOKE Esports in the PGL Bucharest 2025: European Qualifier opening round and won 2-1.

Quite a mixed bag of results for Neimga, who have not found much success this season, nor have they shown any form of consistency. They still took maps off HEROIC, MIBR, and paiN, which sounds promising, but the reality is that Neimga are not that strong.

Zero Tenacity Form

Zero Tenacity have attended six events since the turn of the year and have yet to come close to winning a single one. The Balkan outfit are 6-4 from their last 10 outings, with victories against Sashi Esports (twice), GTZ (twice), ARCRED, and Rhyno Esports.

On the other side, they’ve lost to Monte, GTZ, Spirit Academy, and Dynamo Eclot.

Zero Tenacity are hardly more than a tier-two Counter-Strike 2 team, and they, like many other squads at their level, have shown very little consistency with their performances. They, however, are not that much weaker than Nemiga.

Verdict

Nemiga Gaming v Zero Tenacity

Nemiga Gaming might’ve attended higher-profile tournaments recently, and they even took maps off teams who are considered stronger. But that proves very little and should not be a reason to have them billed as firm favourites for this match.

Like Zero Tenacity, Nemiga are not consistent and can lose to anyone on any day. While this does not prove that Zero Tenacity should upset, I can see this fixture extending to three maps.
