Match Overview

Date: July 16, 2024
Location: Berlin, Germany
Teams: FUT Esports vs Fnatic

Prediction

FUT Esports stands out as one of the top teams in the EMEA league, showcasing exceptional strategy and mechanical skills. Their consistent performance throughout Stage 1 and Stage 2 granted them direct playoff entry. They also seek revenge against Fnatic, who previously halted their trophy ambitions on the EMEA stage.

Fnatic, despite losing key player Leo due to health issues, has performed admirably with new addition hiro. The rest of the squad has also stepped up, showing resilience and adaptability. However, FUT Esports might have a slight edge due to their longer time playing together.

Head-to-Head

FUT Esports and Fnatic have faced off six times in the 2023 and 2024 seasons. Fnatic has won four of these encounters, while FUT has secured two victories. Their last meeting was at Masters Shanghai, where FUT Esports eliminated Fnatic from the competition.
