FaZe Clan vs Team Vitality: Who is expected to win in CS2 StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 Grand Final?

Prediction

FaZe Clan’s run has been nothing short of remarkable in this event. However, Team Vitality appears to have the edge and are expected to win their third Counter-Strike Major.

Every player on Vitality has been delivering high-impact performance, and apEX's calling in the playoffs has been excellent so far. FaZe Clan still has a very talented roster that could turn things around at any point.

Our prediction: FaZe Clan 1-3 Team Vitality
