Team WE made quite a statement last Monday when they took down Royal Never Give Up (2-1), but they quickly slipped down the LPL Spring standings with losses against Weibo Gaming (0-2) and Victory Five (1-2) on Sunday.
Top Esports are 1-1 after the first week of action with a painful 0-2 loss against Rare Atom and a 2-1 victory over Ultra Prime on Saturday. You could say that the defeat against Rare Atom was a fluke, but TES did not look that much better against Ultra Prime, so perhaps they need a bit more time to find traction.
Despite their rather unconvincing showings, TES enter this bout as heavy favourites, and while we have no reason to doubt their ability to win, there is far more value siding with the outsiders at offered LoL betting odds. Team WE might not have as many star players, but TES look way too inconsistent for us to believe they can win without dropping a map.

Invictus Gaming kicked off the new season with a strong performance against ThunderTalk Gaming on January 13 but were less convincing on Sunday when they had to admit defeat to OMG (0-2). Unfortunately, there isn’t a lot to take from IG’s recent showings, but from the looks of it, they might be a mid-table team.
LNG Esports picked up two quick wins in week one of LPL 2022 Spring when they took down Ultra Prime (2-0) and Rare Atom (2-1), and they look in prime form to keep their streak going. Admittedly, LNG only won against two of the weakest teams in the league, but with the roster they have, these guys should be strong candidates for the LPL 2022 Spring title.
LNG Esports should win, but we wouldn’t bet on them at the provided odds and will instead bet on over 26.5 kills. While not a very kill-hungry team, Invictus Gaming can be resilient and drag games out, which should give the teams time to accumulate enough kills for our bet to hit.
