On July 11, the VALORANT Esports World Cup 2025 reaches a new level—with several exciting matches worthy of the attention of both viewers and bettors. We have analyzed the odds, team form, and likely scenarios to bring you the 5 best bets of the day. And not everything is as obvious as it may seem.

Fnatic vs Karmine Corp: Correct Score 2:0 (2.00)

Fnatic are clear favorites and in strong form. The team completed the group stage undefeated, beating Gen.G 2:0 and securing second place at Masters Toronto 2025, so they should face no major difficulties against Karmine Corp and are expected to win the series 2:0.

Paper Rex vs Sentinels: Paper Rex to Win (1.45)

Paper Rex has been one of the most consistent teams in recent months, though Sentinels might put up a fight. The match could end either 2:0 or 2:1 in favor of Paper Rex. Therefore, for safety, betting on a Paper Rex win is the most reasonable and secure option.

NRG Esports vs Gen.G: Over 2.5 Maps (1.92)

NRG Esports delivered a solid performance during the group stage, making this a tough match for Gen.G. While it’s hard to believe in a clear NRG victory, it is highly plausible that both teams will be able to take at least one map each. A bet on over 2.5 maps looks more realistic.

BBL Esports vs Team Heretics: Team Heretics to Win (1.88)

A match between two relatively equal opponents at this tournament. However, Heretics have better statistics on the international stage and more experience, especially in LAN settings, whereas for the BBL Esports roster, this is their first tournament of this caliber.

T1 Academy vs SLT: SLT to Win (1.72)

In the VALORANT Challengers 2025 Korea: Stage 3 matchup between T1 Academy and SLT, the latter appear better organized and have a higher chance of winning. Their previous head-to-head, which was played in a best-of-five format, ended with SLT claiming a 3:1 victory. We’re backing them to win this match as well.
