TEAM SECRET vs DRX VCT BETTING & MATCH DETAIL<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nTeam Secret +600 at BetOnline<\/a> | DRX -1000 at BetOnline<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nMay 13, 2023 |17:00 CEST<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Team Secret looked decent early in the VCT 2023 Pacific League season, but not that much since the second week. After beating Talon Esports (2-1) and Paper Rex (2-1), Team Secret have managed just one win from their next five series (1-4) and enter Week 8 on a two-game losing streak.<\/p>\n

In Week 6, Secret lost against ZETA DIVISION (1-2) and on Sunday got swept by T1 (4-13, 8-13). Things don’t look good ahead of Team Secret’s clash with the VCT 2023<\/a> Pacific League frontrunners, DRX.<\/p>\n

DRX have yet to lose a game this season and have dropped just two maps over their last seven series (14-2). They didn’t look too convincing in their win against Gen.G (2-1) in Week 5 and even lost a map against Rex Regum Qeon (2-1), but that doesn’t make us doubt DRX’s chances of sweeping Team Secret.<\/p>\n

Team Secret can do well against other mid-table teams; however, expecting them to defeat or come close to beating the hottest team in the region is too optimistic.<\/p>\n

GLOBAL ESPORTS vs DETONATION FOCUSME VCT BETTING & MATCH DETAIL<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nGlobal Esports -454.55 at BetOnline<\/a> | DFM +300 at BetOnline<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nMay 13, 2023 |20:00 CEST<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Watch Live:<\/td>\nTwitch (https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/VALORANT)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Global Esports are 2-5 after seven weeks of action, which isn’t great, but still significantly better than DetonatioN FocusMe, the only team in the league without a single victory. DFM looked slightly better in Week 6 when they won a map against T1 (1-2), but that was one of DFM’s few solid games.<\/p>\n

On the other side, Global Esports started the season with three straight losses, and even though they’ve since not found much consistency, Global Esports won against Talon (2-0) and Gen.G (2-0) last month, which counts for something. Last week, Global Esports returned to their old ways and lost against Rex Regun Qeon (0-2).<\/p>\n

At better odds, siding with DetonatioN FocusMe to steal a map would make sense, but despite Global Esports’ iffy performance last week, they are still the better team and should get it done in two maps. Global esports -1.5 maps is paying around $1.90 with esports betting sites<\/a>. <\/p>\n
