FNATIC vs TEAM LIQUID VCT BETTING & MATCH DETAIL<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nFnatic $1.41 at GG Bet<\/a> | Liquid $2.76 at GG Bet<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

VCT 2024 EMEA Stage 1 Group Alpha ended with all five teams winning three of the six games played. But due to their solid round differential (+6), Fnatic placed second, while Team Liquid finished third, with a -1 round differential.<\/p>\n

The two European VALORANT<\/a> esports teams not only ended the group stage tied at 3-3, but they\u2019ve also beaten the same three teams in KOI, GIANTX, and Gentle Mates and lost to FUT Esports, Natus Vincere, and Team Heretics \u2013 all with identical scores.<\/p>\n

Yet, despite posting identical results, Fnatic are priced as $1.41 favourites with the top Esport betting sites<\/a>. Knowing what this lineup is capable of, Fnatic should be expected to win, but at the offered number, they\u2019re overrated. Team Liquid are far from one of the leading title contenders, but they\u2019ve hardly looked any worse than Fnatic.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re playing the price in this match. Liquid at $2.76 is way too generous to pass on.<\/p>\n

NATUS VINCERE vs TEAM HERETICS VCT BETTING & MATCH DETAIL<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nNaVi $1.68 at GG Bet<\/a> | Heretics $2.11 at GG Bet<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nMay 8, 2024 | 19:00 CEST<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Natus Vincere ended the VCT 2024 EMEA Stage 1 group stage with a 4-1 record, which was good for a second-place finish, one above Team Heretics, who have won three of the last five series. <\/p>\n

Team Heretics have looked underwhelming at the start of Stage 1 and underdelivered relative to the expectations put on the VCT 2024 EMEA Kickoff runners-up. But they found momentum in the final two weeks when they defeated Team Liquid and Karmine Corp.<\/p>\n

Natus Vincere have been more consistent throughout VCT 2024 EMEA Stage 1, but Team Heretics have looked far more dangerous in the final weeks. There are also differences in the map pool, which mainly favour Heretics, who have much better figures on Sunset, Lotus, and Haven.<\/p>\n

Even though Natus Vincere are a stacked roster capable of great things, Team Heretcs\u2019 recent resurgence makes them a more inviting bet at plus money.<\/p>\n
