Maç Tahmini: Giants Gaming - Team Liquid | VALORANT

Giants Gaming and Team Liquid will meet in the sixth round of the group stage of VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: EMEA League. Interestingly, the teams are on the same plane, posting mixed results.

To be honest, it's hard to pick a favourite here, as Giants Gaming and Team Liquid have both strengths and weaknesses. And you keep expecting a miracle from the Liquid, but the team never plays.

Therefore, I'd lean on three cards here, as Giants Gaming will definitely play number one if Cloud wakes up, and Team Liquid you would consider to be an early favorite.

Giants Gaming form

The eighteenth team in the European rankings played well at the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo, where they shut out DetonatioN FocusMe and also put up a fight against NRG.

However, the Giants Gaming team ran into trouble in the Long Stage of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: EMEA League as the team was edged out by Fnatic and Natus Vincere.

Fortunately the squad managed to get out from there, picking up three wins and breaking into the leaderboard.

Giants Gaming's latest results:

• A 0-2 loss to Fnatic.
• A 1-2 loss to Natus Vincere.
• 2-0 win over KOI.
• Beat BBL Esports 2-0.
• Beat FUT Esports 2-0.

Top scorers for Giants Gaming:

• Lotus - 100% wins.
• Haven - 75% wins.
• Icebox - 71% wins.
• Ascent - 67% wins.
• Split - 50% wins.

It is worth noting that the Giants Gaming team is giving up on Fracture.

Team Liquid uniforms

The fourth team in the European rankings completely failed in the recent VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo as they managed to lose already in the first round to Team Secret.

Furthermore, at the Long Circuit of the regular season VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: EMEA League, the Liquid failed to cope with Team Vitality and also lost to Fnatic.

Team Liquid, on the other hand, managed to rectify their position by catching up with the league leaders. Still, it's a little early to draw conclusions, as the team isn't living up to expectations.

Team Liquid's latest results:

• A 1-2 loss to Team Vitality.
• Defeated FUT Esports 2-1.
• A 2-0 win over Karmine Corp.
• Defeat to Fnatic by a score of 0-2.

Team Liquid's best records:

• Fracture - 67% wins.

In turn, Team Liquid has yet to show up on the Pearl map.

Forecast for the match Giants Gaming - Team Liquid

I don't think there is any logic behind it as a lot will be decided on the server. However, we can definitely say that Liquid are playing below expectations, while Giants Gaming are partly surprising. Moreover, Team Liquid is having problems with stardom, as players simply don't fit. Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Total on Cards 2.5 more.
