TOP ESPORTS vs ANYONE’S LEGEND

Best Odds	Top Esports +115 at BetOnline | Anyone’s Legend -153.85 at SportsBetting

Top Esports at plus money is the play, mostly because this exact matchup has already gone their way once in Split 2.

TES swept Anyone’s Legend 2-0 in the first meeting, and that result still matters even with AL improving since then. Anyone’s Legend have put together better results lately, including a clean win over Invictus Gaming, but the market has probably moved a little too far in their direction for a rematch against a team that already solved them once this split.

The concern with TES is that they were just blanked by Weibo, so this is not a risk-free underdog bet. Still, there is a difference between respecting AL’s current run and making TES this big a price in a series they have already shown they can control. If Top Esports clean up the sloppy stretches that hurt them last time out, the +115 looks too big to leave alone.

WEIBO GAMING vs INVICTUS GAMING

Best Odds	Weibo Gaming -222.22 at BetOnline | Invictus Gaming +160 at SportsBetting

Weibo have the more convincing case here after already beating IG 2-1 earlier in the split.

That first meeting was not a walkover, but it showed enough. IG took the opener before Weibo settled into the series and won the next two maps, which is exactly the kind of result that makes the rematch price easier to trust. Weibo have since added a 2-0 win over Top Esports as well, so this is not just a head-to-head lean.

Invictus still have enough punch to make this awkward, especially if they get the first map moving like they did last time. The issue is whether they can hold that level for a full best-of-three. Weibo have already shown they can absorb the early hit and turn the matchup around, and at -222.22, the favourite still feels playable.
