TSM are locked in for a top-six finish with a 26-13 record on the 2021 season, whereas Golden Guardians are still one win short of catching up to FlyQuest in eighth place. TSM enter this match with an impressive 14-7 record on the summer season but are 3-3 in their last six outings.
Golden Guardians are 9-12 this term, with a 4-2 record across the last two round robins. Last week they took down Evil Geniuses and Dignitas but fell short against Cloud9.
Despite that loss, Golden Guardians are still the same team that won against 100 Thieves, Team Liquid, and Evil Geniuses. And while you could argue that TSM are better than Team Liquid, they’re not nearly as strong as 100T nor EG.
Golden Guardians have some flaws and will likely struggle to keep up with TSM during the laning phase, but we like the kill handicap bet on the underdogs for this match. TSM are generally a low-scoring team, so while they might end up winning, it won’t be by a considerable kill margin.
Golden Guardians +7.5 kills
IMMORTALS vs EVIL GENIUSES LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |

|---|---|
| LoL Betting Odds: | Immortals $2.47 at Betway | EG $1.49 at Betway |

Evil Geniuses are clearly one of the top two teams in the LoL Championship Series, and their upset loss against Golden Guardians last week doesn’t change that. It remains to be seen for how long will EG manage to keep playing at this tempo, but until they start showing signs of slowing down, we will continue to be bullish on them.
Immortals have had some success early into the LCS 2021 Summer, but other teams soon caught up to them. They’re now 10-11 on the summer season and 2-4 in their last six outings. That run includes a loss against Evil Geniuses, who beat them on Friday, July 9.
It was a relatively close match, however, EG have since improved, whereas Immortals seem to have stagnated and haven’t produced anything of note besides their fluke win against Cloud9 last week. The LCS has become very competitive, so it rarely makes sense to trust the favourites to cover the kill handicap, but the line for this match seems a bit low.
Evil Geniuses -5.5 kills
FLYQUEST vs CLOUD9 LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |
|
|---|---|
| LoL Betting Odds: | FQ $2.94 at Betway | C9 $1.37 at Betway |

After a turbulent start of the season, Cloud9 found some traction last week with two victories against Counter Logic Gaming and Golden Guardians. With those wins, C9 are now 11-10 on the summer season, which is not bad, nor is it very good.
FlyQuest have gained a lot of attention in recent weeks, but we aren’t as excited about their 3-2 record as some might be. FlyQuest might have won all three of their LCS 2021 Summer Week 6 outings, but they weren’t very convincing in either of those matches nor did they deserve to defeat TSM last week.
It’s easy to overreact to FlyQuest’s impressive run earlier this month, but this is still an academy roster, whereas Cloud9 are the reigning LCS champions. C9 have issues they need to work on, but they are improving, and that’s enough for us to side with them for this match.
Cloud9 -5.5 kills
TEAM LIQUID vs DIGNITAS LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |
|
|---|---|
| LoL Betting Odds: | Liquid $1.30 at Betway | DIG $3.35 at Betway |

Team Liquid are a much more stacked roster, but something isn’t clicking in this squad. With so many star players on the roster, they should have done much better than winning only 11 games (11-10) on the summer season and only three across the last two round robins (3-3).
Liquid haven’t impressed anyone of late, but the same can be said about Dignitas, who are 8-13 on the summer season and 2-4 in their last six outings.
It’s hard to make a strong case for either team at the offered betting odds; however, we like a bet on under 24.5 kills. Neither team can afford to lose, meaning they’ll likely opt for a more cautious approach and produce a slower game. There is even a solid chance that Liquid wake up and obliterate Dignitas in a very quick match – either scenario should result in a low kill count.
Under 24.5 kills
