KOI vs FUT ESPORTS VCT BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

With a 1-2 record and a -34 round difference, KOI are not in a great spot ahead of the next VCT<\/a> 2023 EMEA League round. KOI’s only victory of the season came on the opening day when they defeated Natus Vincere (0-2), which is impressive, but it doesn’t change the fact that KOI lost the next two series.<\/p>\n

A 0-2 defeat against Team Vitality and a 0-2 loss against Giants on Friday has pushed KOI down the power rankings, earning them the tag of a team that should do well, but has yet to find any serious traction.<\/p>\n

FUT Esports are the complete opposite. They were viewed as one of the weaker teams in the league, yet still ended the first two weeks of action with a positive (2-1) record. In the opening week, FUT won against Heretics (2-0) and lost against Team Liquid (1-2), before adding a huge victory against Team Vitality (2-0) last Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Considering FUT Esports’ stronger record, it makes sense for esports betting sites<\/a> to price them as the favourites for this affair, yet even -138.89 seems a bit high. KOI are a capable team, but their recent showings make it hard to trust them with our money.<\/p>\n

TEAM LIQUID vs FNATIC VCT BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nLiquid +175 at BetOnline<\/a> | Fnatic -250 at BetOnline<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nApril 13, 2023 | 21:00 CEST<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Team Liquid and Fnatic will clash on Thursday for the first time since the first round of the VALORANT Champions 2022 playoffs, where the latter side won 2-0. The teams have made a few roster changes since, but even through the new signings, Fnatic retained their tag as the stronger Valorant esports<\/a> team.<\/p>\n

Fnatic are the only team ahead of VCT 2023 EMEA Week 3 who are yet to lose a series. They nearly slipped against BBL Esports (2-1), but the Black & Orange had to play the game without Emir “Alfajer” Beder, so even that shaky showing doesn’t mean much.<\/p>\n

Team Liquid are 2-1 with wins against FUT Esports (2-1) and Karmine Corp (2-0), while their single defeat came against Team Vitality (1-2) in the first week of the season. Even with that loss, Team Liquid are in a good spot and arguably up there with Fnatic as the leading candidate to win the league.<\/p>\n

But as much as we can praise Team Liquid as one of Europe’s top Valorant teams, Fnatic are on a whole other level, and with what they’ve shown lately, it might take a bit longer before any team stops Fnatic’s win streak.<\/p>\n
