FunPlus Phoenix and LGD Gaming are two leading favourites to win LPL 2023 Summer wooden spoon, making this match much more important for both squads. LGD Gaming are 1-7 ahead of Friday’s affair, while FunPlus Phoenix are 2-5, but both teams have won their last outings.
LGD Gaming’s sole victory of the split came against Anyone’s Legend (2-0), which is hardly worth celebrating, but LGD looked good in that game. So even though LGD are not very strong nor in good form, they have the highest ceiling out of all LPL bottom-feeders.
FunPlus Phoenix defeated Invictus Gaming on Tuesday as 2.15 underdogs, which looks very good. Considering how inconsistent Invictus Gaming are – due to constant roster changes – that victory doesn’t improve our ranking of FPX, who are one of the worst macro teams in the league.
As a clash between two struggling squads, this can go either way; however, LGD Gaming have better players and the potential to achieve something by the end of the split.

As the defending LPL and Mid-Season Invitational champions, JD Gaming enter this top-of-the-table matchup as $1.44 favourites with the best esports betting sites. However, it’s easy to be blinded by JDG’s achievements over the year and ignore how good Top Esports have looked this split.
Top Esports have not lost a game since going down 2-1 to LNG Esports in the opening week of LPL 2023 Summer, beating EDward Gaming (2-1), Ninjas in Pyjamas (2-0), ThunderTalk Gaming (2-1), Weibo Gaming (2-1), FunPlus Phoenix (2-0), and Royal Never Give Up (2-1). They hold the same 7-1 record as JDG and enter this crunch clash on a seven-game winning streak.
Comparing the performance metrics, JD Gaming are slightly better than Top Esports, but the gap isn’t as big as the latest LoL betting odds might suggest. So even though JDG should be favoured, $1.44 is way too short of a price.
If Top Esports get side selection, expect the odds to move in their favour.
