Forutsigelse av kamp: Team Liquid - Natus Vincere | VALORANT

Team Liquid and Natus Vincere will meet in the second semi-final of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: EMEA League. We should remind you that the teams played each other in the group, and then Born to Win secured a confident victory.

Since then Team Liquid hasn't gotten any stronger, and the day before the Liquid got a very tough win over Team Vitality, which only adds questions to the team's play.

All in all, I don't think there's much of an International riga here, since Team Liquid still falls short of their opponent. Therefore, I would lean on Team Natus Vincere to win here.

Team Liquid's form

The third ranked team in Europe had a terrible showing at the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo, as Team Secret already went home in the long run.

As for their performance in the regular season of VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: EMEA League, here Team Liquid managed to come back from a bad Long Camp to take the third place.

Thankfully, the European side eventually came back to claim seven straight victories. And, in spite of the defeat in the end by Fnatic, "Born to Win" rightfully took their place.

Team Liquid - Natus Vincere encounter statistics

In the current season, the teams have met once - in the group stage of VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: EMEA League victory went to Natus Vincere (2-0).

Team Liquid vs Natus Vincere

I assume that Team Liquid will put up more resistance this time, as the Liquid played without their main player in the group.

However, on the whole, the overall victory of Natus Vincere looks like, which has proved at the ditch that so far only Fnatic (KOI is out of the bracket) can't cope with it.

Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Natus Vincere to win.
