Prime League Pro Division betting tips – Tuesday 31/5/2021

Esportbet brings you free betting picks for the opening round of the Prime League Pro Division 2021 Summer Season. Here are the best bets and top odds for four League of Legends fixtures slated for Tuesday, June 1.


BIG played well at the European Masters Spring, where they made it to the quarter-finals only to be eliminated by their regional rivals mousesports. Regardless, they’re still the reigning Prime League Pro Division champions and one of the top teams heading into the summer split.

BIG enter the second split of the season with a slightly changed roster. Star top laner Enzo “SLT” Gonzalez left for Team Vitality last week, while jungler Karim “Karim kt” Aubineau returned to France to play with GamersOrigin.

Replacing the two are ex-Illuminar Gaming top laner Dawid “Melonik” Ślęczka and jungler Philippe “Akabane” Le. While we don’t know much about these two, it’s fair to say that BIG are now much weaker and will need some time to establish a strong synergy.

EURONICS were the worst team in the league last term, but they fielded an entirely new roster at the time. The all-German side should look better now that they have established some synergy, and since this is a best-of-one (Bo1) match, a small play on the outsiders is worth a shot.


We can use the same approach here as we did for the BIG vs EURONICS Gaming match. This is the opening fixture of the split and a Bo1, so there’s a high chance we might see an upset.

And it’s not like one team is that much better than the other. SK Gaming Prime were excellent last split, finishing fourth in the regular season, but they fell flat in the opening round of the Prime League Pro Division playoffs. E WIE EINFACHT E-SPORTS were second-to-last with a 6-12 record last split, but as was the case with EURONICS, that was a freshly built roster.

EWI don’t lack individual talent, seeing how their jungler Daniel “D4nKa” Golzmann posted the second-best individual stats in the league last term. Similarly, Florian “Glowing” Loferski finished the season as the fourth-best mid laner in the league.

EWI have the talent to match SK Prime and offer great value to win the match, but we are satisfied with the LoL betting odds on a +9.5 kill handicap.


GamerLegion were one of the strongest teams in the league last season and should have finished inside the top three, but they did not make it past Unicorns of Love Sexy Edition in the first round of the playoffs. They now enter the summer split as one of the few teams that have not made any roster changes.

PENTA 1860 haven’t made any notable changes to their roster besides the signing of substitute support Arno “Uloper” Schmidt. It’s unclear whether Uloper will start for them this split.

These sides halved their two meetings last term, but it was PENTA who won their last clash in March. While that win came when GamerLegion were struggling, it shows that PENTA have the tools to match them. Expect a close fixture.


Mousesports made it to the semi-finals of the LoL European Masters, whereas Schalke 04 Evolution failed to make it out of the group stage. Still, we shouldn’t overreact to international results, primarily because S04E were placed in a group with finalists BT Excel and eventual champions Karmine Corp.

The LoL betting odds for this match favour mousesports, but we think they look a little bit short. It seems like the esports bookmakers are putting too much weight on mouz’s deep run at EUM Spring, but as we said before, that doesn’t mean much.

Both teams parted ways with their star players ahead of the summer split. Mouz lost Adam “LIDER” Ilyasov to Team Vitality and replaced him with Paweł “Czekolad” Szczepanik, whereas S04E promoted Ilias “NUCLEARINT” Bizriken to their main roster and signed Artur “Zwyroo” Trojan as his replacement.

Mouz seem lightly stronger, but S04E are good enough to keep this one within eight kills.
