After hitting all three of our League of Legends European Championship (LEC) 2022 Spring betting picks for last Saturday, Esportbet returns with another set of tips for this weekend. Here are our selections for Team BDS vs SK Gaming, Team Vitality vs Rogue, and G2 Esports vs Fnatic, all taking place on Saturday, January 29.


TEAM BDS vs SK GAMING LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

LoL Betting Odds: BDS +110 at BetOnline | SK -151.52 at BetOnline
When: January 29, 2022 at 17:00 CET

Team BDS and SK Gaming enter Week 3 of LEC 2022 Spring with a 1-4 record, which sits them tied in eighth place. Team BDS’ only victory came on January 15 against Excel, who should have won the game but gave up a crucial Baron, essentially supplying BDS with a free win.

Like BDS, SK have managed only one win, and even that came from a very scrappy match against MAD Lions in Week 1. SK Gaming have since lost against Fnatic, G2 Esports, and Excel, proving that their victory against the reigning champions was a fluke.

It’s tough to say how this match will go since neither team showed anything that would make us prefer them over the other. With that logic, a bet on BDS would make sense, but considering how mistake-prone these two teams are, we expect another scrappy bout that should see plenty of kills on both sides.

TEAM VITALITY vs ROGUE LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

LoL Betting Odds: Vitality -151.52 at BetOnline | Rogue +110 at BetOnline
When: January 29, 2022 at 20:00 CET
Watch Live: Lolesports, Twitch


Team Vitality bounced back from their 0-3 start with a perfect 2-0 run last week when they beat Team BDS and G2 Esports. The Bees looked much better in those games, but they still have some polishing to do.

Rogue have managed a perfect 5-0 run across the opening two weeks with wins against SK Gaming, Misfits Gaming, Astralis, MAD Lions, and Team BDS. Overall, they have been playing well, and we have no issues ranking them as one of the top-three teams in the league.

Still, we would have to put Rogue behind Team Vitality even though the latter have yet to stabilise. You could make a case for Rogue to cause an upset since they play with a lot more discipline and are less prone to making mistakes. Still, they’re outmatched across all positions, and considering the improvement Vitality showed last week, we have to side with the European superteam to get it done.

G2 ESPORTS vs FNATIC LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

LoL Betting Odds: G2 +141 at BetOnline | Fnatic -185.19 at BetOnline

G2 Esports are 3-2 with wins against Astralis, Excel Esports, and SK Gaming, which is hardly worth celebrating, just like we can’t be overly critical about their defeats against MAD Lions and Vitality. From what we’ve seen from G2, they seem like an upper-middle table team; the question now is how will they stack up against Misfits Gaming and other bottom teams.

However, we can be sure that G2 will struggle against the in-form Fnatic. The black and orange have yet to lose a match, and while they had some iffy showings, Fnatic are looking better with each passing game.

The latest LoL betting odds show Fnatic as -185.19 favourites, which is fair since they shouldn’t be losing against G2. However, we don’t expect them to stomp their regional rivals.

Throughout the LEC history, these derbies were always close – no matter which players represented the two teams – and we expect that trend to continue. Fnatic should win, but this will be a bloody match with plenty of kills on both sides.
