The performance of Neymar's favorite team at the Esports World Cup 2024 has already looked more confident than the entire half of the year before. That's 90% credit to the recent arrival of Felipe skullz Medeiros, whose career in the international roster hasn't exactly gone to plan. Aside from the only obvious weak link in Gabriel FalleN Toledo, the lineup of rifflers in FURIA has finally peaked since 2021-2022. Roughly speaking, if Kaique KSCERATO Kerato continues to show consistently high performance and skullz is more than just organic with the team, the Brazilians will be able to qualify for the playoffs of major tournaments for the first time. Fortunately, the tournament calendar after the shoot-out Esports World Cup is IEM Cologne 2024, which historically has been a no-holds-barred event with the highest degree of preparation.
Imperial
Over the last year, Imperial has assembled an exciting hybrid of veterans and promising young players. Even this managerial solution of a mixture of experience and youth is enough to make much noise on the Brazilian scene. In April, purely localized merit was enough to get them into the world's top 15, according to HLTV.
Now Imperial is in 22nd place and does not pull the level of FURIA, even considering the stagnation of the latter. The team can count on a sudden series of mistakes from several players at once, which will lead to a defeat on one of the maps with a decent gap. It is unlikely that the opponents will concede a whole series to Imperial, but one of the maps - entirely and even very much like a typical FURIA.
Expert Betting Tips
As both teams have shown in recent months, we expect the match to be unstable. The predictions will aim for this, including the three maps played in the series and a total of less than 53 rounds. To satisfy both projections, the teams should play a seesaw game where FURIA and Imperial can be beaten on each map.
