ESL ANZ Champs S13 betting tips – Saturday, October 23

ESB’s free Counter-Strike: Global Offensive betting picks for Saturday, October 23, focus on two ESL ANZ Champs Season 13 bouts. Here are our selections for LookingForOrg vs Ground Zero and VERTEX Esports Club vs ORDER, with top odds courtesy of BetOnline.


LookingForOrg and Ground Zero last met on Tuesday, October 12, when L4Org won 2-0, with 16-4 on both Overpass and Inferno. Their only previous meeting happened in August when LookingForOrg were still playing under Dire Wolves and won with 16-6 on Ancient.

L4Org are stronger and rightly priced as the betting favourites for the rematch. Ground Zero have some solid pieces, but everything points towards another straightforward win for the reigning ESEA Season 38 Premier Division Australia champions.

The offered CS:GO betting odds on L4Org, even with a map handicap (-588.24), aren’t very appealing. Instead, we like the favourites with a 8.5 round handicap at -102.04. Even though that’s a very high line, we are far more confident that Benson “Liki” Niuila and his crew will win without dropping more than eight rounds than Ground Zero coming close to double digits.


VERTEX Esports Club last met with ORDER on Saturday, October 16, when they lost 0-2, with 4-16 on Mirage and 9-16 on Ancient. Their only other meeting of the month happened five days prior when VERTEX won the opening map (16-10 on Ancient) but lost on Mirage (11-16) and Vertigo (10-16).

ORDER clashed with VERTEX five times in 2021 and won all but one bout (1-2 in June), including all of their last three. ORDER have proven that they’re the better team, but they have dropped at least one map in two of their previous three meetings.

Excluding their last clash with ORDER, VERTEX have done relatively well against the current third-highest rated Oceanic CS:GO team. So, while don’t expect the outsiders to cause an upset, but at +126, VERTEX are worth a shot with a map advantage.
