Match Prediction: The Union - FUSION | VALORANT

The Union and FUSION will play in the third round of the VALORANT Challengers Ascension 2023: Americas group stage. So far, the Brazilians have left a pleasant impression, especially as they can now clinch the top spot in the group.

For their part, FUSION's play already has no claim to a miracle, as the Colombian squad clearly showed the day before that they are completely unprepared for the pace of the championship.

Given that fact alone, we can safely forget about FUSION and base any conversation solely on the strength of the Brazilians. So here I'd stick with a resounding victory for The Union.

The Union's form

The second team in the Brazilian rankings won VALORANT Challengers 2023: Brazil Split 1 with only two defeats in the process.

The Union also recently won VALORANT Challengers 2023: Brazil Split 2, going undefeated and making it to Ascension.

What's more, the Brazilian squad surprised at the Long Conger VALORANT Challengers Ascension 2023: Americas as they crushed M80 Esports and gave plenty of food for thought.

The latest results from The Union:

• A 2-1 win over the RED Canids.
• 2-0 win over ODDIK.
• Beat 00NATION 2-0.
• 3-0 win over 00NATION.
• Beat M80 Esports 2-0.

The Union's best wins:

• Bind - 100% wins.
• Split - 100% wins.
• Pearl - 86% wins.
• Fracture - 83% wins.
• Ascent - 82% wins.
• Lotus - 78% wins.

It's worth noting that the Brazilian squad tries not to appear on the Haven map.

FUSION Form

The first team of the Latin American ranking has played ambiguously in the regional season, as they failed in Pre-Season and also took the second place in the first split.

On the other hand, the Colombian team won the second split of the VALORANT Challengers 2023: Latin America North Split 2 but lost to 9z in the seeding match.

FUSION failed to make an impact in the Long Stage of the group stage at the VALORANT Challengers Ascension 2023: Americas as they edged M80 Esports without a chance.

FUSION's latest results:

• A 2-1 win over 19esports.
• A 2-0 win over Six Karma.
• 3-1 win over Six Karma.
• A 0-3 defeat at the hands of 9z.
• A 0-2 defeat to M80 Esports.

FUSION's best scores:

• Bind - 100% wins.
• Lotus - 86% wins.
• Haven - 71% wins.
• Fracture - 67% wins.
• Ascent - 57% wins.
• Split - 50% wins.

In turn, the Colombian team routinely turns down Pearl.

Prediction for the match The Union - FUSION

Is there any point in saying anything, given the teams' Long Corner in the group stage? The Brazilian side should probably extend their winning streak and take on FUSION.

And the Colombians showed a weak game in the Long Corner of the championship, coming up with nothing against M80 Esports. And if you compare the results of the teams, everything falls into place.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on a 2-0 win for The Union team.
