LEC Summer Week 2 2023 Betting Preview

SK Gaming vs Team BDS

Currently in the LEC Summer standings, SK Gaming and Team BDS are two teams which are part of a five way tie at fifth place.

Apart from being statistically even, the esports betting LoL odds also have these teams with an even chance of winning.

In terms of predictions, if we had to pick our winner, we’d like to point out that Team BDS did place first at the LEC Spring Season. In addition, they placed second at the LEC Summer Playoffs, while SK Gaming don’t have similar achievements.

Regardless, this should be a great match.

• Predictions: SK Gaming (0-1) Team BDS
• Odds: SK Gaming Outright Win (1.85), Team BDS Outright Win (1.85)
• Betting Site: Thunderpick

KOI vs Fnatic

Despite both organizations’ long-stay in the LEC, neither of them managed to place in the top 4 at the LEC Spring Playoffs.

Currently, in the LEC Summer season, Fnatic is in third place with a 2-1 record, while KOI trails behind at 1-2.

Overall, this Fnatic team has looked impressive and looks to keep doing so in this match-up as suggested by League of Legends betting sites.

• Predictions: Fnatic (1-0) KOI
• Odds: KOI Outright Win (2.40), Fnatic Outright Win (1.50)
• Betting Site: Thunderpick

Astralis vs Team Vitality

Our third match for this particular LEC Summer betting preview is that between Astralis and Team Vitality.

Ever since joining the LEC last season, Astralis has improved and right now, they’re in the middle of the standings. Meanwhile, Team Vitality are currently sitting at the bottom of the standings – trying to avoid not making it to the LEC Groups.

With both teams at a 1-2 record, Team Vitality will likely use their experience to overtake Astralis and climb the leaderboard as supported by the esports odds.

• Predictions: Team Vitality (1-0) Astralis
• Odds: Astralis Outright Win (2.40), Team Vitality Outright Win (1.50)
