Nongshim RedForce vs Global Esports Match Analysis

Before talk about the recent results of the two teams, let’s take a look at the stakes involved. Nongshim RedForce are already qualified for VCT Champions 2026 via Pacific Championship points, so they’re in a comfortable spot. On the other hand, Global Esports are yet to secure their ticket, but a win here would guarantee them a spot in the final tournament of the year. So, one team has way more to gain than the other.

Nongshim RedForce are on a hot streak, winning their last four matches. The thing is, they’ve taken down some really heavy hitters, including the likes of Gen.G, T1, and most notably, Paper Rex – one of the best teams in Valorant this year. They’ve essentially taken down the top teams in the region already, and Global Esports is, on paper, an easier opponent.

Global Esports have a little win streak of their own at three. They took down KRX and found a very comfortable 2-0 victory over VARREL, which is a squad on the rise. They’re building up some good momentum heading into this upper bracket final, and we know they’re going to give it their all with the stakes involved.

Nongshim RedForce vs Global Esports Betting Picks and Predictions

I believe Nongshim RedForce are favored to win the series based on their recent form. However, the motivation for Global Esports should be at an all-time high, as they definitely don’t want to miss out Champions in Shanghai.

I think the South Korean squad is still going to bag the win, but Global Esports won’t go down without a fight. The two teams have already played against each other in this same tournament, with Nongshim RedForce taking a 2-1 victory – not a clean sweep.

☑️ My view on the likely outcome

Global Esports should be able to win at least one map in the series, which is why we’re taking them at +1.5 maps as our main pick. That being said, Nongshim should also be good for at least one map, which is why Over 2.5 maps is going to be my second pick.
