Daily esports betting predictions – Wednesday, September 16

Today’s esports betting predictions cover the continuation of the CS:GO ESL Pro League and Dota2 BTS Pro Series, as well as two quarter-final matches at the League of Legends European Masters 2020 Summer. Let’s take a look at the best odds and value bets on offer at BetOnline.

ESL Pro League Season 12 Europe


After four rounds of play, Complexity Gaming hold a perfect 4-0 record and equally impressive 8-2 map differential. They only lost maps against Team Spirit and Fnatic last week, but even those were very close.

Mousesports are 2-2 after losing both of their Week 2 fixtures against Astralis and Ninjas in Pyjamas, which is cause for concern since they’re now facing one of the strongest teams in the ESL Pro League.

Unlike mouz, Complexity have yet to show any signs of slowing down, so we have to trust Benjamin “blameF” Bremer and co. to secure their third clean sweep of the tournament this Wednesday.


ENCE are 4-1 after five rounds of play compared to OG’s 2-3 record, which paints a clear picture of which side is better prepared for this bout.

ENCE were well beaten in their opening map against AGO (2-16) on Sunday but struck back with 16-4 on Train and 16-4 on Dust II, so there is no denying the Finns are in great form. They also swept G2 Esports and Natus Vincere and defeated the current no.3 team in the world, Heroic (2-1).

In contrast, OG lost to NaVi (1-2) and G2 (1-2) and struggled against GODSENT (2-1). The choice is obvious.


GODSENT managed to win only one map in all of their matches last week against ENCE, OG and Heroic. The clash with OG was especially worrying, as they won a mere 10 rounds across Inferno (4-16) and Train (6-16).

BIG choked against Heroic (1-2) last week but managed convincing wins against AGO (2-0), OG (2-0) and even G2 (2-1), who they kept to only four rounds on Nuke.

Siding with GODSENT – even in the handicap market – offers no value. While they can have their moments, this match looks more like a 2-0 stomp by BIG than anything else.

ESL Pro League Season 12 North America


Evil Geniuses won 2-0 against Gen.G last week, but they dropped 27 rounds across Dust II (16-14) and Inferno (16-13). That does not inspire much confidence since they lost 0-2 to Chaos Esports Club only four days prior.

FURIA might not have had a perfect run through the ESL Pro League so far, but they proved their worth on Sunday when they swept Team Liquid while keeping them to only eight rounds on both Nuke (16-8) and Vertigo (16-8).

While Evil Geniuses are still regarded as the strongest North American CS:GO team, their recent form drop suggests there is value in siding with FURIA to cause an upset.

LoL European Masters 2020 Summer

AGO ROGUE are looking like one of the strongest playoffs teams, but there is a possibility Misfits Premier could derail their Polish counterparts.

While Misfits had their slip-ups in the group stage, mid laner Ronaldo “Ronaldo” Betea (6.3 KDA) continues to impress and should prove to be a worthy opponent for AGO ROGUE’s Paweł “Czekolad” Szczepanik (5.5 KDA).

All other lanes favour AGO ROGUE, but the differences are marginal. For that reason, we are confident Misfits Premier can put up enough of a fight to force a three-map series at least.


K1CK Neosurf will look to spring an upset when they face mousesports in the EU Masters quarter-finals, but that might be easier said than done.

Mouz field one of the best players in the competition in jungler Patrick “Obsess” Engelmann, who holds the highest KDA (10.0) in the league, as well as ADC Jesper “Jeskla” Klarin Strömberg (8.6 KDA) and ex-G2 Esports support Hampus Mikael “promisq” Abrahamsson (5.4 KDA, 11.7 APG).

A lot will have to go right for K1CK Neosurf to win here. While ADC Łukasz “Puki Style” Zygmunciak is capable of carrying his team to victory, he has proven to be too inconsistent for us to consider trusting the underdogs.

BTS Pro Series Season 3 Southeast Asia

NEW Esports failed to show up on Monday when they lost 0-2 to Neon Esports, which was quite a shocking result considering they swept Fnatic just two days prior. One could say NEW overachieved a bit on the opening day and are now showing their true colours.

Motivade.Trust Gaming might not be one of the strongest teams in the BTS Pro Series, but they have shown solid form across the last month with a 6-1-3 record. Their run also includes a 2-1 win over Adroit, a 1-2 series with TNC Predator and a 2-0 sweep against 469 Gaming.

NEW Esports look stronger on paper, but we like Motivade.Trust better on form.

Prediction: Motivade.Trust Gaming to win – $4.54 at BetOnline

BTS Pro Series Season 3 Europe/CIS

HellRaisers have managed only two draws so far in the BTS Pro Series, but their stalemates with Vikin.gg and mudgolems are not without value. Facing them this Wednesday will be Team Unique, who lost their opening match against Vikin.gg (0-2) but won against B8 (2-0) on Monday.

Unique and HellRaisers have met four times in 2020, each winning twice. Unique were the most recent victors during the OMEGA League in August (2-1), but HellRaisers look much stronger than their CIS rivals heading into this clash.

The odds offered on HellRaisers are very generous, so we don’t have to think twice before deciding on our pick.
