Evil Geniuses vs FURIA - Which team will win this match at VCT Americas Stage 2?
Predictions
Evil Geniuses have had some ups and downs in their 2024 season. The team showed a lot of improvement toward the end of Americas Stage 1 and has seemingly continued that momentum into Stage 2 already. They have already earned themselves a win over Brazil's best, LOUD.
FURIA have looked terrible throughout the 2024 season. This team couldn't get a single win in both Kickoff and Stage 1. However, after some roster changes, Stage 2 has already looked better for them. The team started off the event by taking down the Stage 1 winners, 100 Thieves in a dominant fashion.
This match of Evil Geniuses vs FURIA favors the former as their performance has looked better in comparison. However, FURIA played amazingly in their first match of Stage 2 and might just continue that momentum and defeat Evil Geniuses.
Head-to-head
These teams have only faced each other once. This was during VCT Americas League in 2023 where FURIA won the Bo3 series by 2-1.
