Team Vitality vs LOUD Betting Predictions
Team Vitality and LOUD will face off on Wednesday, September 30, in Group B of VALORANT Champions 2026, marking their first clash of the year.
Team Vitality and LOUD both did well in the first round of VALORANT Champions 2026, beating Global Esports and EDward Gaming, respectively. However, it is fair to say that LOUD looked better in the opening round, and have shown a lot more in the months leading up to VALORANT Champions.
VCT EMEA representatives have had a promising run earlier in the season; they haven’t been as impressive in the last two months, raising the question of whether they have what it takes to stop the surging LOUD.
- LOUD are in great shape
- Team Vitality haven’t been great of late
- LOUD are rightly viewed as favourites
First Meeting of the Year

Team Vitality Are Showing Promise
Team Vitality defeated Global Esports 2-1 in the first round of Group B for a promising start to VALORANT Champions 2026. It was also a good showing following a rough run through Stage 2.
This is a strong team with some very solid pieces. This is a very experienced roster internationally, with Chronicle, Derke, and even Jamppi with past experience competing in big events. So when it comes to high-pressure situations, you can be sure Vitality will step up.
The big question is Vitality’s form. Their win over GE is promising, but after an iffy run through Stage 2, Vitality have to show a bit more.

LOUD Are on a Roll
LOUD have looked excellent in Stage 2, and they’ve not shown any signs of slowing down in the first round of VALORANT Champions. In the opening round, LOUD defeated EDward Gaming 2-0, dropping just 13 rounds across the series.
LOUD won the match with 13-8 on Lotus and 13-5 on Summit, which is seriously impressive. But the actual weight of that win heavily depends on how highly EDG should be ranked.
While LOUD have more to prove, as an inexperienced team in international events, they haven’t shown any cracks so far. And with their star players all in top shape, LOUD are looking like a team that will be incredibly hard to stop.
