FURIA vs NRG Esports - Which team will win their match at VCT Americas 2024 Stage 1?
Predictions
FURIA has been struggling in the 2024 season. The team made certain roster changes for this year but has not been able to create any positive results. Out of their last five matches, they have lost all of them and have only been able to win a total of two maps.
NRG Esports formed one of the strongest-looking rosters for the 2024 season. While the team had problems and did not qualify for VCT Masters Madrid, they started Stage 1 with a dominant win. If NRG can keep up this form, they will qualify for Masters Shanghai with ease.
The FURIA vs NRG Esports match heavily favors the latter as the team has delivered strong performances recently and has shown better strategies. FURIA will need to bring something special to turn this series into an upset.
Head-to-head
These teams have faced each other multiple times before. The most recent was during the Americas Kickoff where NRG won the Bo3 series by 2-0.
