FUT Esports and Rex Regum Qeon will play in the first round of the Omega Bracket at VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo. Perhaps, here the Turkish team has equal chances to win and lose, since objectively FUT Esports is an outsider not only in its league, but also here in Brazil.
It is clear that the Philippine team is not so serious as to count on a sensation. And the odds are not in favor of Rex Regum Qeon. However, against the background of a frankly weak opponent, by the standards of normal competition, the Filipinos can definitely open up and impose their game.
Therefore, here I would take a closer look at the map from Rex Regum Qeon, since the Turkish team is not so rosy.
FUT Esports Uniform
The fifth team of the European ranking managed without major changes in the composition, although there is no one to take from the local scene. If you look at last year's results, the Turkish team managed to win VALORANT Regional Leagues 2022 Turkey: Birlik Stage 2 and VALORANT Regional Leagues 2022: Finals there, but at the same time failed in the VCT series.
And in the off-season, FUT Esports managed to play in several championships, taking third place at Open Fire All Stars 2022. However, the failure of the team at Red Bull Home Ground #3, where the guys lost all matches, was indicative.

Form Rex Regum Qeon
The 36th team of the Asian rating has noticeably refreshed its roster, actually weakening its former rivals, who failed to get into the affiliate program.
As for the results in the off-season, the Philippine team did not show anything in the Valorant India Invitational and AfreecaTV SEA Invitational, marking only fleeting victories.
Therefore, it should be clear that we are dealing with outsiders in our region.

Prediction for the match FUT Esports — Rex Regum Qeon
Excuse me, but the Turkish team is some kind of real shame if we are talking about competition with top-tier rivals. Yes, in this matchup FUT Esports is the clear favorite, which sounds ridiculous.
However, the Philippine team will definitely not give up the initiative so much that they won't show anything at all. Still, the guys had enough time to prepare, and individually they are no weaker than FUT Esports.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on Handicap by cards (+1.5) for the Rex Regum Qeon team.
