CS2 / Coverage / 2 February 2026 — 13:25

After yesterday’s painful loss to Team Spirit (1 : 2), NAVI have no room for error. To reach the quarterfinals of IEM Kraków 2026 and play on the TAURON Arena stage, they must win both remaining matches.

The first opponent on this path will be FURIA — the match against the Brazilian squad starts today at 19:00 and will be played in a best-of-3 format.

FURIA haven’t had the strongest start to the year: at BLAST Bounty Winter 2026 they lost to PV (0 : 2), and in Kraków they first fell to FUT (0 : 2) before narrowly defeating The MongolZ (2 : 1).

However, writing FURIA off would be a mistake — we all know exactly what this team is capable of at their peak. If NAVI secure the win, they will face the winner of the FUT / Astralis matchup tomorrow for a spot in the IEM Kraków 2026 playoffs.
