]]>The leading lights of the North American Epulze Global League lock horns for their next Dota2 fixture as Doze Reborn take on TriPALoSKY Squad. Doze currently sit at the summit of the table with seven points and a game in hand, winning three of their last four matches and drawing the other.
TriPALoSKY Squad, also known as TKS, have also accrued seven points, meaning they sit in second position, right on Doze’s heels. TKS have played five games so far, winning three, drawing one, and losing the other.
Dota 2 betting sites are predicting a Doze win, as they beat TKS in both of their previous meetings this year. TKS are by no means a pushover and so should make it difficult for their opponents in the best-of-two fixture, but the bookies are clearly leaning towards Doze in this one.
League of Legends supporters are eagerly awaiting the 2020 LoL World Championship Finals, which will take place this weekend in Shanghai. The best-of-five fixture sees DAMWON Gaming face Suning, with League of Legends betting sites favoring DWG to lift the trophy.
The South Korean organization played incredibly well in the playoffs, losing only one round to Spanish side G2 Esports. DWG also outperformed their upcoming opponents in the group stage, winning five of their six matches.
However, Suning have shown their championship quality by winning four of their six matches in the group rounds. The Chinese organization also had to play G2 in a tiebreak fixture to decide the winners of Group A. Suning lost one round in both playoff games, leading LoL bookmakers to install them as $2.57 outsiders in the decider.
Goliath Gaming need to turn the ship around after losing their first match of the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Umzansi League Summer season. Usually so strong, Goliath struggled to control the game against DNMK Esports and must now try to fix the weaknesses shown in that fixture. Before the match takes place, Goliath face a real test as they take on season leaders ATK.
White Rabbit Gaming will be watching their opponents closely, keenly watching for any weaknesses they can exploit. The match also marks WRG’s first of the season as they look to get off to a winning start.
Despite them sitting at the bottom of the table, CS:GO sportsbooks place Goliath Gaming as the favorites to win the fixture. The last two contests between Goliath and WRG saw the former come out on top in both.
MTW Gaming will face fellow countrymen Team Riverside in their upcoming LoL Prime League Pro Division fixture, with the two German squads sitting just three points apart in the table. MTW currently sit in third position with 30 points, 12 off leaders Penta 1860, after a very good start to their campaign.
Team Riverside have won nine of their 16 matches so far, losing the other seven. MTW have also played 16 games, winning 10 and only losing six. In the past three meetings between the pair, TRS have beaten MTW twice, including a win in the most recent fixture two weeks back.
Before locking horns, both organizations play one other game. While the pair seem evenly matched on current form, punters seem to be siding more with MTW.
Bolivian organization XT are preparing for their game against Azules Esports from Peru. The fixture forms part of the group stage for season two of the South American Epulze Global League. Azules currently sit at the summit of the table with eight points, winning three of their last five matches and drawing the other two to maintain their unbeaten start.
XT sit in fifth, winning two of their five games, losing two, and drawing the other. The Bolivian squad sit just three points off the lead and will be looking to close the gap with a victory.
The Dota 2 match takes place on October 29 and follows a best-of-two format. While esports bookmakers view Azules as the favorites, there’s a real chance the underdogs can cause an upset.
Australian organization Ground Zero Gaming moved up into the sixth place in the ESEA Season 35 Premier Division table after their win against Bantz Gaming this week. The two sides battled it out in a best-of-one CS:GO match.
Bantz struggled as the counter-terrorist side, only scoring three points, compared to Ground Zero racking up 12 as the terrorists. After switching roles, Bantz stepped it up but still lost out, finishing the fixture 16-6 in favor of Ground Zero. Bantz now sit in 15th place with 15 points.

]]>The North American teams didn’t get off to the greatest of starts in the group stage of the League of Legends World Championship. The region’s three representatives all fell to their opponents in their opening battles and are ready to take on this week with a fresh mindset.
FlyQuest, Liquid, and Team SoloMid will be up against DRX, G2 Esports, and LGD Gaming respectively in Tuesday’s matchups. As those three teams are all among the strongest in the world, LoL betting sites have the American sides as outsiders in each contest.
It seems as though BTRG are in hot water after three players reached their boiling points in the last two weeks. The latest member to leaves the active roster, Hyun-Pyo “?XigN?” Lee, claims the team breached several contract obligations. He’s not the first, and we doubt he’ll be the last.
The remaining roster consists of just two players and the coach. If the claims made by XigN, Anthony “?ImpressioN?” Lim, and Kevin “?Eeyore?” Gunawan are true, BTRG will struggle to find replacements. The team have underperformed in their recent battles, with CS:GO betting sites losing faith in them altogether. It’s unlikely they’ll be the favorites at bookmakers in any contest until they sort out their internal issues.
We’re onto the finals of the Umzansi Esports League Counter-Strike competition, where ATK Arena will look to dominate Energy Esports once again. ATK have outpaced, outsmarted, and outplayed every opponent that crosses their path, and there’s no indication that the final round will be any different.
Energy Esports fell to ATK in the group stages 5-16 and are the underdogs across South African betting sites. ATK are sitting at a record winning streak of 18 and will be more than happy to push it to 19 in their best-of-three series against Energy.
We’re off to matchday three of the ESL Meisterschaft 2020 Season 2 group stage, where we’ll start seeing which teams are stepping ahead of their competitors.
The first matchup on Tuesday looks a tight contest between ESG and Brame in their first head-to-head battle. It’ll be an interesting one to watch, as the two teams are similar in their strengths and weaknesses. We’re with the Dota 2 betting sites in backing Brame, who have won both their games so far.
The other clash of the day sees German betting sites favor 5 Comrades in their battle against Abfahrt, who have been in poor form lately and only registered a win on matchday two due to a foreiture.
After their performance over the weekend, TeamOne and Yeah Gaming progressed to secure a spot in the DreamHack Masters Winter 2020 North America main event. The two Brazilian teams are the first to join Team Liquid and Evil Geniuses in the final field.
We’re awaiting who the final four invitations will go to, but there’s still plenty of time as the main event will only kick off towards the end of November. With the four current rosters, US esports betting sites have their odds in favor of Evil Geniuses.
Spag and Sons are ready to take on a new opponent in the LPL Pro Season 3 group stage. Their next contender is 4 AM, and it’s looking to be an exciting clash. The two have never faced off in the past, and they match up well on paper when you compare the positions head-to-head.
However, the odds at most Australian esports betting sites favor Spag and Sons, who have a slight advantage on the overall scope and parameters. Spag also have a significant amount of recent tournament experience, making them more comfortable in the competitive atmosphere.

]]>Team Liquid started Day 1 of the LoL World Championship with an exceptional performance defeating MAD Lions. They’ll be back on Day 4 of the group stages with a doubleheader. Once again, they’ll be opening the day and face SuperMassive, where sports betting companies have the odds in their favor.
They’ll play a second game against INTZ later in the day, where they’re the anticipated winners once again. INTZ is one of the underdogs this year, and it’s unlikely they’ll stand a chance against Liquid, who are among the favorites to proceed from the group stages.
Team Liquid will also be back after a couple of days without a match, giving them sufficient time to watch how their opponents play and practice tactics behind closed doors.
Invictus Gaming and Bren are back at it in their upcoming Perfect World Asia League game. The two have faced off on several occasions, and Invictus has taken the victory in the most recent four.
Invictus is in top form after defeating all their recent opponents. The only group they can’t push past is ViCi Gaming, who are among the top-ranked organizations. Bren has had an inconsistent performance, which isn’t looking good when they’re up against a team that’s higher in the log.
We’ll have to place our bets on Invictus taking the crown in this match. They’ve had consistency and are a stronger team overall.
DNMK will close off round 10 of the Umzansi Esports League Spring 2020 against Djentlemen. Both sides have had a tough time in the campaign, but we’re putting our money on Djentlemen to take the game.
DNMK has managed to win only one of their games while losing the four out of the five. It’s not looking like they have what it takes against the Djentlemen.
Old foes Na’Vi and mousesports will battle it out once more in the European ESL Pro League Season 12. The two sides are well-matched and always bring an exciting game to viewers. This time around, it looks as though esports betting enthusiasts and sportsbooks are backing Na’Vi.
Na’Vi has been on excellent form lately, coming in first in their group A stage with a 6-1 win-loss record. Mousesports have fared well so far, landing fourth in group B with a 4-3.
Our team expects Na’Vi to clear the match, as they’ll be hungry to maintain their record and land a spot in the upper bracket semis, final, and then the grand finals. We’ll wait and see what the future holds for them.
Wygers AR and 9z will be battling it out in the FiReLEAGUE Cluster Round six this coming week, so what can we expect? 9z is sitting on top of the log after winning four out of four matches.
Meanwhile, Wygers AR is sitting in the bottom three, after losing four of their five games. Their only victory came in round one against Furious Gaming. Even that victory was a close one, with a score of 16-14.
Like the esports betting sites, our odds are with 9z who are dominating the season so far.
The renegades are on top form in the Oceania ESL Pro League Season 12 and are the sure winners backed by many sports betting sites. This upcoming week they’ll be up against Order in the upper bracket final, where the winner will proceed to the grand finals.
The two have gone up against each other on eight occasions, where Renegades took victory on seven of the encounters. They’re also on a hot winning streak, and most recently were crowned champions of the ESL Australia & NZ Championship Season 11 and the DreamHack Masters Spring 2020 Oceania.
Order has had a reasonably good series, but they lack the pizazz that Renegade has been delivering. Our money is with the Renegades this time around.
