Splyce performed well in Group B to reach the summer playoffs in what was arguably the harder of the two groups. The squad will be fully aware that according to LoL esports betting tips they will be deemed underdogs. However, in the playoff knockout format, anything can happen.
After running away with the Spring Playoff title, G2 Esports will be eager to show that their runners-up spot in the summer split was simply a blip. In the middle of June Hoang joined as a sub just as Loulex left the team. The squad to face Splyce will feature Expect, Trick, PerkZ, Zven and Mithy.
It is Deja-vu for Splyce, 3rd place in the spring split preceded a quarter final defeat to Misfits in the playoffs. The squad will be desperate to go at least one better and reach the semi-finals. The squad to face Esports will feature Wunder, Trashy, Sencux, Kobbe and Mikyx.
The two sides met in the summer split group crossover matches and they were favourites G2 Esports who ran out relatively comfortable winners 2-0. LoL esports betting tips would suggest Splyce have it all to do again to avoid a similar fate. Again it was G2 who edged Splyce in the Spring split 2-1. A tough match is in store for Splyce.
G2 will be frustrated at themselves for what appears to have been a case of ‘taking their foot off the gas’ during the summer split. However, they will be confident as they face a side they have a strong record against. G2 should progress but it may not be as comfortable as they would like in a nervy quarter final.
It is hard to look beyond G2 for the win in this one and the team can be backed for the outright win at 7/25 with Betway. However to get more value on your bet on esports League of Legends, get on Esports to claim a 3-1 win at 21/10 with 10Bet. G2 have a habit of beating Splyce and there is little reason to believe that will change but in a knockout tie, nerves will be frayed and Splyce should ruffle a few feathers by nicking one game at least.
