Match Prediction: Sentinels - FURIA Esports | VALORANT
VCT 2023: Americas LeagueSentinels and FURIA will meet in the ninth round of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Americas League regular season, where they will literally be playing for play-offs.
The Brazilian side have four wins so far, while the Sentinels have just three. However, The International League will be alive until the last one, because if they win, the North Americans won't guarantee anything yet.
Still, I'm impressed by the Brazilian squad's play, which has become noticeably more structured and manages to show signs of life in evenly matched matches. So I'd be rooting for FURIA to win this one.
Sentinels uniform
The 23rd ranked team in the North American rankings fell in the group stage of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Americas League and immediately began to fall into rotation.
Somewhere in the middle of the season, the Sentinels began to wake up, picking up their first wins. Still, the team was unable to prove itself in games against strong opponents, which resulted in a distressing situation.
Here, in recent weeks, the North American team managed to lose to Cloud9 and Evil Geniuses, being limited to just one victory over KRÜ Esports in a close game.
Latest Sentinels results:
- A 1-2 loss to LOUD.

The third team in the Brazilian rankings, on the other hand, did well in the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Americas League regular season with a number of wins.
However, the Brazilian side then began to lose steam by slowing down. As a result, FURIA found themselves in the middle of the table, having lost to their direct rivals.

Sentinels - FURIA preview
I think the Brazilians deserve to get into the play-offs because the Sentinels' team routine is getting tiresome. And the North Americans don't stand out much in the game, barely beating KRÜ Esports.
All in all, I wouldn't look towards the North Americans playing without structure and relying on shooting. So in this case I would recommend betting on a FURIA team win.
