Match Prediction: Guild Esports - FunPlus Phoenix | VALORANT

Guild and FunPlus Phoenix will play their first match at VCT 2021: Europe Stage 1 Masters. Both teams got into the death group, where absolutely everyone can impose a fight and take a place in the playoffs. However, it is impossible to argue with the fact that FunPlus Phoenix is one of the favorites not only of the group, but of the entire championship.

The seventh team in the European rankings failed at the first Red Bull Home Ground of the new season, losing already in the quarterfinals. After the Swedes, it took three attempts at once to qualify for VCT 2021: Europe Stage 1 Masters, which clearly indicates not the most optimal conditions.

Prediction for the match Guild - FunPlus Phoenix

The main thing that distinguishes FunPlus Phoenix from its rival is the presence of an experienced captain, thanks to whom the team has become one of the strongest on the stage. The Swedes, on the other hand, have stood out strongly against the background of their skill, which has recently fallen short of expectations. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the FunPlus Phoenix team.
