G2 Esports and Leviatan will face off for the fifth time this VALORANT Champions Tour (VCT)<\/a> season and the first time since Americas Stage 2 when Leviatan won 3-1. However, according to the betting odds, Leviatan will have a tougher time surpassing their regional rivals on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The VCT Americas runners-up have looked very good this tournament, beating Paper Rex and EDward Gaming. In contrast, Leviatan managed a second-place finish in Group C with wins against Talon Esports and Team Vitality.<\/p>\n

As with most regional derbies, head-to-head records hold a bit more weight than the teams’ form, but we have to show G2 Esports some respect for their past showings. This should be a close match.<\/p>\n

FNATIC vs TEAM HERETICS VCT BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nFnatic $2.00 at GG Bet<\/a> | TH $1.75 at GG Bet<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nAugust 15, 2024 | 20:00 KST<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Fnatic and Team Heretics know each other very well, as they have faced off three times this season. Their meeting, however, was the VCT 2024 EMEA Stage 1 finals, when Fnatic bested the VCT 2024 Masters Shanghai runners-up 3-2. Before that, Heretics won twice, both in two maps.<\/p>\n

Comparing season-long results, Heretics are the better team and looked stronger during the VALORANT Champions 2024 group stage. This explains why VALORANT betting sites<\/a> have them priced as favourites. At the same time, Heretics’ only big victory came against Gen.G, who were not in the best shape.<\/p>\n

It is hard to find a good reason to fade Fnatic, mainly due to their experience, high ceiling, and strong coaching staff, which makes them a scary team to face when given time to prepare. At even money, it is hard to look past Europe’s No.1 seed.<\/p>\n
