Match Prediction: Team Vitality - FUT Esports | VALORANT
VCT 2023: EMEA League - Regular SeasonTeam Vitality and FUT Esports will play in the third round of the group stage of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: EMEA League. The European side leads the league with two wins so far, while FUT Esports have only recorded one win.
What's more, Team Vitality have gone head-to-head against their direct rivals, beating Team Liquid and KOI. Against this backdrop, the Turkish squad's success in the first round pales into insignificance, as the guys recently lost to the same Liquid.
Therefore, here I would lean on Team Vitality to win, which in its current form is clearly The International ereher than FUT Esports.
Team Vitality's form
The third European ranked team had a mixed performance in the recent VCT 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo, where they managed to defeat Global Esports, but failed further against Leviatán Esports.
However, at the Long Stage of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023 regular season: EMEA League, the European squad found the strength to take on Team Liquid and KOI.
And you can see that with each match Team Vitality are getting better at understanding each other and getting more aggressive.
Team Vitality's latest results:
- A 0-2 loss to 100 Thieves.
- A 2-1 victory over Global Esports.
- A 0-2 loss to Leviatán Esports.
- Defeated Team Liquid 2-1.
- 2-0 win over KOI.
Top scores for Team Vitality:
- Split - 100% wins.
- Ascent - 100% wins.
- Lotus - 100% wins.
- Haven - 60% wins.
- Fracture - 57% wins.
Let's not forget that the European squad is not shown on the Icebox map.
FUT Esports uniforms
The fourth European ranked team surprised a bit at VCT 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo, as they not only defeated Rex Regum Qeon there, but also battled 100 Thieves.
As for Long Sogpeg in the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: EMEA League regular season, here FUT Esports sensationally defeated Team Heretics, but the boys failed to cope with Team Liquid in the second round.
Understandably, the Turkish squad needs time, but against the current leader it will be much harder for the lads to open up.
Latest FUT Esports results:
- A 0-2 defeat to 100 Thieves.

Prediction for the match Team Vitality - FUT Esports
I'm surprised by the steepness of Team Vitality, as the team is not even in the top 3 of their league by name. Nevertheless, the lads have played well, which is producing results.
In turn, after the successful Long Sogpeg, FUT Esports failed to gain a foothold, suffering a loss to Team Liquid. So back to square one, where the Turkish team is slightly weaker.
So in this case I would recommend betting on Team Vitality to win.
