Kwangdong Freecs suffered their third consecutive loss of the season on Wednesday against T1 (0-2). But according to the latest LoL betting odds, Kim “Taeyoon” Tae-yoon and co. should do better on Friday when they face off against Nongshim RedForce.
Nongshim RedForce are 1-3 ahead of Friday’s clash with Kwangdong Freecs, with just one close victory against OKSavingsBank BRION in the opening week of the split. Since then, RedForce have lost against Liiv SANDBOX (0-2), Gen.G (0-2), and Dplus KIA (0-2).
The main thing to take away from Nongshim RedForce’s recent outings is that they make too many mistakes, and while Kwangdong Freecs are known to slip at times, they also field better and more experienced players. Barring any surprises, Kwangdong Freecs should sweep.

HANWHA LIFE ESPORTS vs LIIV SANDBOX LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |

| Best Odds: | HLE -227.27 at BetOnline | SANDBOX +162 at BetOnline |

Liiv SANDBOX edged past OKSavingsBank BRION (2-1) on Wednesday and secured their second victory of the LCK Summer split. However, as bad as it may seem for SANDBOX to hold a 2-3 record, they had the displeasure of having to face Dplus KIA (0-2), T1 (0.2), and KT Rolster (0-2) across the first two weeks.
Liiv SANDBOX were a playoff team last split, and while their numbers in LCK 2023 Summer are a bit worse, this is still a quality squad whose only real issue is lack of consistency – with high highs and low lows.
Hanwha Life Esports are 2-2, but those defeats came against top-four contenders KT Rolster (1-2) and T1 (1-2) in the opening week of the split. Since then, HLE have beaten DRX (2-0) and Kwangdong Freecs (2-0). But even though Hanwha are doing well in the current meta, this head-to-head price is too short.
Hanwha Life Esports should win, but Liiv SANDBOX are good enough to show some resistance. Expect a close series.
