Current form of the teams
ThunderTalk Gaming
ThunderTalk Gaming is currently facing a challenging period, as evidenced by their recent performances. They are ranked 34th in earnings over the last six months, with a total of $6,864. Their overall win rate stands at 42%, with a significant drop to just 10% in the last month. They have been on a five-match losing streak, with recent losses against Invictus Gaming, Bilibili Gaming, JD Gaming, and Team WE. This string of defeats highlights their current struggle to find form and consistency in the league.
FunPlus Phoenix
FunPlus Phoenix, on the other hand, has had a slightly better run, although they too are facing difficulties. Their overall win rate is 47%, and they have managed a 40% win rate over the past month. However, their recent matches tell a tale of inconsistency, with losses against Team WE, Bilibili Gaming, and Top Esports. They did secure a win against Bilibili Gaming on April 28, 2025, but have otherwise struggled to maintain momentum.
Head-to-Head
In their previous encounters, FunPlus Phoenix has dominated ThunderTalk Gaming with an overall head-to-head win rate of 80%. In their most recent match on April 6, 2025, ThunderTalk Gaming managed to secure a 2-1 victory over FunPlus Phoenix, breaking a long streak of losses against them. However, FunPlus Phoenix has historically had the upper hand, winning four out of the last five meetings. These past results suggest that FunPlus Phoenix might have a psychological edge going into this matchup.
Match Prediction
Based on the current form and historical performance, FunPlus Phoenix is favored to win this match. Their slightly better form and dominant head-to-head record against ThunderTalk Gaming give them the edge. The prediction suggests a 2-0 victory for FunPlus Phoenix, as they aim to capitalize on ThunderTalk Gaming’s recent struggles. While ThunderTalk Gaming has shown flashes of potential, their recent form indicates that they might find it challenging to overcome FunPlus Phoenix in this series.
