Esportbet’s League of Legends betting tips for Friday focus on the LoL European Championship (LEC). Here are our best bets and top odds for the opening games of LEC Spring 2021 Week 7.


MAD LIONS vs SCHALKE 04 LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

LoL Betting Odds: MAD $1.52 at GG Bet | S04 $2.42 at GG Bet
When: March 5, 2021 at 18:00 CET

?Even though Schalke 04 are struggling, there is no reason to have them priced as high as $2.42 for this match. Last week they put up a solid fight against Rogue and might have looked much better against Misfits Gaming had they drafted better.

S04 are on a six-game losing streak and struggling on the financial front, but that doesn’t take away from the players’ individual quality. MAD Lions might have looked better of late, but their 3-1 run is a bit misleading since their wins came against teams that use an inferior playstyle to theirs (Excel), are disorganised and out of sync (Vitality), or are just highly volatile (Fnatic).

Schalke 04 to win is a very appealing bet at the offered odds. Whatever the outcome, we are expecting anything but a tight, low-scoring affair.

ASTRALIS vs MISFITS GAMING LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

LoL Betting Odds: AST $2.58 at GG Bet | MSF $1.46 at GG Bet
When: March 5, 2021 at 19:00 CET

?If there is one thing we have learned about Misfits Gaming this split, it is that they can win any match just as easily as they can lose to any opponent. That more or less summarizes where we are going with this prediction.

And it is not only Misfits’ volatility that points towards a potential upset upset, but also Astralis’ improvement since the arrival of Carl Felix “MagiFelix” Bostr?m. The Danes are still a bit reckless and often make silly mistakes, but they like to fight, which is one way to compensate for their lack of individual talent.

There are two bets for this match that we like: Astralis to win, and Astralis to secure at least 11 kills. Considering the underdogs average 17 kills in their wins, we recommend you either take only the latter bet or both since it is highly unlikely they will win with less than double digits.

TEAM VITALITY vs SK GAMING LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

LoL Betting Odds: VIT $2.65 at GG Bet | SK $1.44 at GG Bet
When: March 5, 2021 at 21:00 CET
Watch Live: Lolesports, Twitch

?Team Vitality will need a miracle to secure a spot in the playoffs after a 2-11 start to the season. The latest odds at esports betting sites suggest they won’t have an easy time against SK Gaming, who enter this match on a five-game winning streak.

Despite Vitality’s improvement, they still seem a bit out of sync, which won’t do them any favours against the in-form SK. Although there is a world where the Bees cause an upset, the odds are not good enough for us to take their side. Instead, it is SK to secure first blood that stands out.

SK have picked up first blood in 62.5% of their wins and 53.8% of their games this season, whereas Vitality have yet to secure first blood this split. At these odds, siding with Janik “Jenax” Bartels and co. to get their name on the board first is a no-brainer.

SK Gaming first blood
