SHIFTERS vs NATUS VINCERE

Best Odds	Shifters +430 at BetOnline | Natus Vincere -769.23 at SportsBetting

Shifters are the only number worth taking seriously here.

NAVI deserve to be favourites, but -769.23 is the kind of price that assumes a very clean series, and LEC best-of-threes rarely stay that polite for long. Shifters were beaten by Karmine Corp on Saturday, though they still dragged that match to a decider, which is exactly the sort of detail that matters when the underdog is being priced this aggressively.

This is not about pretending Shifters should be favourites. It is about recognising that they have already shown enough fight this weekend to make a price like +430 look oversized. If they can get one game off script early, NAVI suddenly have a very awkward series on their hands.

KARMINE CORP vs FNATIC

Best Odds	Karmine Corp -1000 at BetOnline | Fnatic +400 at SportsBetting
When	April 26, 2026 | 18:30 CEST

Fnatic are the far more interesting side from a betting point of view.

Karmine have been getting the wins, but they were still pushed to three maps by Shifters on Saturday, while Fnatic only just fell short against NAVI in another series that went the distance. That matters, because the board is now pricing KC like this should be one-way traffic, and the recent results do not really support that level of certainty.

Fnatic do not need to look like the better team overall for this bet to make sense. They just need to keep the match in that same messy, momentum-heavy lane they were already able to create against NAVI. At +400, that is more than enough to make the underdog the only side with any real value.
