Fnatic and Natus Vincere will cross swords on Thursday, January 23, in the lower bracket of the VALORANT Champions Tour (VCT) 2025 EMEA Kickoff.
Fnatic dropped out of the upper bracket after a rough showing against BBL Esports, who bested them 2-1 with 13-8 on Abyss and 13-10 on Split. On the other side, Natus Vincere kneeled in front of Karmine Corp, who reverse-swept them with 13-2 on Bind and 13-6 on Lotus.
On paper, this looks like Fnatic’s game to lose, and the latest odds on the top VALORANT betting sites would appear to confirm it. However, we are so early into the season that it is impossible to make any conclusions on which team is stronger.
Based on the small sample size of games, we know Fnatic are not good on Abyss, whereas NaVi are. However, Natus Vincere did not perform well on Bind and Lotus, so there is a good chance Fnatic will have an edge on either of the two.
It is hard to imagine Fnatic getting knocked out after two games, but NaVi have a realistic chance to complete the upset. They should be able to take Abyss, and from there, it takes just one slip-up from Fnatic, so having NaVi priced at +158 seems a bit too generous.
