Match Prediction: BOOM Esports - XERXIA | VALORANT
VALORANT Challengers Ascension 2023: Pacific - Group StageBOOM Esports and XERXIA will play on the penultimate day of play in the VALORANT Challengers Ascension 2023: Pacific group stage. The match is the last for both teams, with BOOM Esports still to play the day before.
As for the Thai team, he has already managed to get two victories, thereby almost securing a place in the play-offs. Given the inputs, here it makes sense to expect a close fight, and the teams are worth each other.
All in all, we'll see, but objectively, there's no clear favourite to start with. Therefore, I would rely on three points here.

BOOM Esports - XERXIA meeting statistics

BOOM Esports vs XERXIA
With Long Corner XERXIA in the championship, the team can continue their run as they have done well in their first matches. BOOM Esports, on the other hand, has yet to answer all the questions.
Moreover, the Indonesian team is still playing at a disadvantage, and at the moment the guys have not guaranteed themselves anything. And yet we should expect a fight here, which is sure to happen.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend to bet on Total 2.5 over.
