Prediction Natus Vincere - Guild Esports
As part of the Valorant Champion Tour 2022 EMEA, there will be a meeting between the members of group B, namely the teams Natus Vincere and Guild Esports, in the bo3 format. Watching the match should be interesting, since both teams go through their tournament path in different ways.
Natus Vincere kit
From the beginning of the tournament, “Born to Win” show, to put it mildly, not a very good result. The losing streak that began in the first match seriously hit the mood of the team, and in the end, after four weeks of the tournament, the score in the group is 1-3.
The statistics for 2022 also does not look important, the team played 19 matches with a total win rate of 57%, but there were some tournament victories, namely 1st place in the VCT 2022 CIS Stage 1 closed qualifiers.

As you can see, NaVi's last games didn't go well, even taking into account that they were consistently picking up one map, they weren't able to squeeze the opponents.
For example, in the match against Liquid, they lost the last map with a score of 14-16, a similar situation in the game against BBL Esports, where the second map was lost with a score of 16-18.

Match prediction
Guild Esports are the clear favorites in this match, having not lost a single game since the beginning of the tournament, they are confidently moving towards the exit from the group. On the other hand, “Born to Win” did not play well in previous matches, but they can still compete for victory. But as for me, the favorites of the tournament represented by Guild Esports will not give the victory to anyone.
Result 2-1 victory for Guild Esports.
