Week nine of the LCK Summer split continues with two more series, one of which has playoffs consequences for the two teams involved. Below are www.fridaynightmadness.com’s free betting picks for Saturday’s League of Legends matches, with odds from the best online bookmakers for gamblers in South Korea.


HANWHA LIFE ESPORTS vs BRION ESPORTS LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: HLE $1.61 at GG Bet | Brion $2.20 at GG Bet
When: August 6, 2022 | 16:00 KST
Watch Live: Lolesports, Twitch

?Hanwha Life Esports and Brion Esports come into this meeting with a combined three wins and 27 losses, which will most likely see them both finish in the bottom three for the LCK Summer 2022 split.

With a record of 1-14 and a map difference of -20, Hanwha Life Esports have been dismal this LCK split. HLE won their only series back in week three, where they actually beat Brion Esports 2-1, but since then they have lost 10 in a row. Given that HLE’s only victory to date came against Brion, we could see another close series and potentially another HLE win.

Brion Esports have compiled a record of 2-13 with a map difference of -17 throughout this LCK Summer split. In their last three games, they have a respectable form line with two 2-1 series losses to KT Rolster and Kwangdong Freecs along with a 2-0 win over Nongshim RedForce. If recent form is anything to go by, we could see Brion Esports turn the tables on Hanwha Life Esports from their last meeting.

Given the recent form of Brion over the past three matches and the fact that HLE won the last meeting between these two teams, we will be taking the overs in the total maps market.

KT ROLSTER vs LIIV SANDBOX LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: KTR $2.10 at GG Bet | SANDBOX $1.66 at GG Bet
When: August 6, 2022 | 19:00 KST
Watch Live: Lolesports, Twitch

?KT Rolster and Liiv SANDBOX come into this series as the fifth- and third-placed teams in the standings, with only one win separating them.

KT Rolster begin week nine with a 9-6 record and a +5 map difference, which has them sitting in fifth place with only four series to go in the LCK Summer split. KT Rolster have won four of their last five series, defeating Brion Esports, DAMWON Gaming, Nongshim RedForce and Hanwha Life Esports, with their only defeat coming at the hands of T1. Even though KT Rolster sit two spots below Liiv SANDBOX, there could be some value in taking the outsiders in this one going off their recent form.

Liiv SANDBOX have been the big improver in the LCK this split, as they have gone from finishing in second last in the LCK Spring and now sit in third place with a 10-5 record this split. SANDBOX have won three of their last four series and should have won all four, but they dropped an easy series to Nongshim RedForce, who had only won two series previously. The most recent win over DAMWON Gaming was one of Liiv SANDBOX’s most impressive this split, absolutely dominating them in a 2-0 sweep.

KT Rolster and Liiv SANDBOX will both be desperate to get this win to keep their respective playoff and top-four hopes alive. We should see a tight series, so we will be backing the overs in the total maps market at $1.90 with GG Bet.
