FunPlus Phoenix edged past Ninjas in Pyjamas 3-2 on Sunday, with dominant showings on map one and three and a crushing loss on map two. The remaining maps were closely contested but tipped in FPX’s favour.

The victory does not prove much and only confirms that FunPlus Phoenix do not belong among the elite few. They’re good when they can force a brawlier game, but when faced with teams who do not allow FPX to force their game, Yang “Care” Jie and co. struggle.

Top Esports swept FunPlus Phoenix 2-0 at the start of May, and there’s little to suggest this match will end differently. TES are the best team in the LPL with an extremely good early game, and they know how to use early leads to snowball to victory.

It would be a massive blunder for Top Esports to lose or even come close to losing this game.

BILIBILI GAMING vs INVICTUS GAMING LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: BLG -357.14 at BetOnline | LGD +225 at BetOnline

Bilibili Gaming got their second wind towards the end of the LPL 2025 Split 2 group stage, winning eight of their last nine games, one of which was a 2-1 victory against Invictus Gaming in the final week. Considering their resurgence and the result of BLG’s previous clash with Invictus Gaming, it makes sense for the top LoL betting sites to make them heavy favourites to win on Saturday.

However, Invictus Gaming are no slouches. They have been playing well as underdogs this season and have enough talent to face anyone.

In their last meeting, the first map was close, while the next two were stomps, with each team claiming wins. Notably, IG showed a willingness to play a bit risky early to get ahead, which is an improvement and a solid step towards finding ways to hang around against elite teams.

Last time out, Invictus Gaming were +186 underdogs; now they’re priced far more generously despite showing they can compete with BLG. There’s nothing to suggest IG have fallen off or that Bilibili Gaming have improved.
