DN SOOPers are the worst team in the LCK by a significant margin. They have now lost 14 straight games and 28 maps, having not put their name on the board once since the opening week of the split.
Over that stretch, DNS have shown very little improvement. They seemed slightly more alive in the early game against Kiwoom DRX on Friday, but even that is hardly worth much praise given how quickly the series slipped away.
While DN SOOPers are free-falling, Gen.G have been finding their stride. They have produced much more promising results over the last month and are starting to look closer to the level expected of them.
Gen.G are still not quite at the level they reached during the LCK Cup, but they are a clear cut above any team outside the leading group of T1 and Hanwha Life Esports. Against a DNS side with no confidence and no map wins in 14 matches, this should be one-way traffic.
This game should end in a very one-sided sweep for Gen.G. Anything else would be a major disappointment.

T1 are heavy favourites to defeat HAJIN BRION on the best esports bookmakers, and it is easy to see why. They have already beaten BRION twice this season and enter this matchup in excellent form.
Still, this number feels a little short considering T1 will start offside and BRION have improved significantly in recent weeks.
HAJIN BRION have been showing real signs of life lately. Their approach has become much more proactive, they are making things happen early, and their mid-late game has looked far cleaner than it did earlier in the split.
Admittedly, BRION have yet to defeat one of the top teams, but their 1-2 loss against Dplus KIA on Thursday was a promising showing. They pushed a stronger opponent, found openings, and looked capable of making this kind of matchup uncomfortable.
T1 deserve to be favourites, but the odds underrate BRION’s recent improvement. Rather than backing the outright upset, HAJIN BRION to take a map is the best angle.
