KARMINE CORP vs GIANTX VCT BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Karmine Corp were expected to do well in Madrid but finished the first Masters event of the 2024 VALORANT Champions Tour<\/a> in fifth-sixth place, with just one victory against FunPlus Phoenix. EMEA\u2019s second seed, Team Heretics, ended the event in last place — so perhaps it\u2019s not that Karmine Corp are weak, but that the whole region isn\u2019t that good.<\/p>\n

GIANTX didn\u2019t come even close to qualifying for VCT 2024 Masters Madrid<\/a>. They finished the Kickoff event in 10th-11th place, earning the tag as one of EMEA\u2019s weakest squads.<\/p>\n

These teams last met in February, when Karmine Corp won 2-1, and there\u2019s a good chance they\u2019ll win again. Despite their uninspiring performance in Madrid, Karmine Corp are still one of the region\u2019s top teams, whereas GIANTX can hardly be in the conversation of potential title candidates.<\/p>\n

At -175.44, Karmine Corp are priced quite generously on the moneyline market, but the map handicap is a more appealing option.<\/p>\n

KOI vs TEAM LIQUID VCT BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nKOI +137 at BetOnline<\/a> | TL -188.68 at BetOnline<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nApril 3, 2024 | 20:00 CET<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Watch Live:<\/td>\nTwitch (https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/valorant_emea)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

KOI and Team Liquid had a disappointing start to the season. Despite being viewed as one of EMEA\u2019s top VALORANT<\/a> squads, Team Liquid finished the VCT 2024 EMEA Kickoff in seventh-ninth place, while KOI placed a spot higher in sixth.<\/p>\n

Both teams had a long break to figure out where things went wrong, yet neither made any roster changes, so we can\u2019t expect any significant improvement. <\/p>\n

These sides have met twice this season. Team Liquid won the first clash 2-0 but lost the rematch 1-2, yet they are priced as -188.68 to win this affair. <\/p>\n

Liquid simply aren\u2019t good enough to be viewed as such big favourites with esports betting sites<\/a>. This looks like a 50-50 match at best, so we\u2019ll gladly side with KOI at underdog odds.<\/p>\n
