Прогноз на матч: Gentle Mates - FOKUS | VALORANT
VALORANT Challengers Ascension 2023: EMEA - Group StageGentle Mates and FOKUS will meet on day three of the VALORANT Challengers Ascension 2023: EMEA group stage. So far, the French have surprised with their performance as they are 90% closer to reaching the play-offs.
FOKUS, on the other hand, although they managed to strain Apeks the day before, but so far the team does not look like a contender. What's more, the Danish-British team is clearly losing this match to the French, who clearly intend to take a third win.
All in all, given the even odds, the French team should take the opportunity. And there's not much information on FOKUS so far, apart from their inability to keep up the tempo. So here I would lean on the Gentle Mates team to win.

Forecast for the match Gentle Mates - FOKUS
Given such a brisk Long Corner, it makes no sense to bet against the French squad. And Gentle Mates boasts a solid game that clearly deserves to be in the play-offs.
In turn, FOKUS noticeably lack diversity in the selection, and in Berlin, the team managed to play enough matches to give the opponents information about themselves.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on a Gentle Mates win.
