Predictions

Considering the previous encounters between the teams and their recent matches, NRG Esports has a better chance of winning the VCT 2022 NA LCQ Lower Bracket match. Both NA squads have the potential to have a tough fight. NRG Esports has shown better results in their past matches. However, Evil Geniuses have the potential to surprise their opponents.

NRG Esports is a strong team to watch out for in the tournament after they finished off in the fourth position at VCT 2022 North America Stage 2 Challengers. Yet, one cannot underestimate Evil Geniuses if they come stronger than before.


Head-to-head

The two teams have faced each other a couple of times previously and Evil Geniuses have not won a single match against NRG Esports. The teams played against each other in the Valorant Champions Tour 2022 North America Stage 2 Challengers and Nerd Street Gamers Summer Championship 2022, and Evil Geniuses lost to NRG Esports both times.


Recent Matches

Evil Geniuses has only won one match (against Ghost Gaming) out of the five recent matches. Whereas NRG Esports has won three and lost two recently. The squad only lost to 100 Thieves and FaZe Clan. Hence, NRG Esports has won more matches than Evil Geniuses in recent times.
