Team BDS have experienced a rocky 2024 season, and they are coming off a fifth-eighth finish at the London Major in June. PWR have dominated the Oceania Rocket League scene, winning all six of the Major 2 qualifiers before finishing 9th–11th in London. At $2.10 for BDS to win 3-0, it looks to be great value.

Gen.G and Team Secret clashed in the RLCS London Major group stage, where the former took the series 3-1. It was a close contest, with Gen.G winning two maps with a 1-0 scoreline. Another close match looks to be on the cards, and taking the overs in the total maps market is the play.

FURIA enter the Esports World Cup off the back of a strong showing at the London Major, where they finished in third-fourth place. They will meet the Nkosi Ballers, who have yet to play at an S-Tier event and shouldn’t trouble FURIA too much.

Team Vitality are one of the best Rocket League teams; however, they have only won one event since claiming the RLCS World Championship in 2023. With esports bookmakers offering $1.90 for Vitality to cover the match line against Twisted Minds, they are the best bet of the day.

Gentle Mates Alpine are the outright favourites with esports betting sites to claim the Esports World Cup title. Considering they will kick off their campaign against an Oceania representative, a 3-0 victory is on the cards for the French organisation.

Spacestation Gaming performed admirably at the London Major before they were beaten in a hard-fought contest by G2 Stride in the quarterfinals. They will meet Gaimin Gladiators, who come off a 12th–14th finish at the same event. It is hard to see the Gladiators taking a map off Spacestation, so $2.75 for a 3-0 win to the favourites is a great price.

Esports betting tips

Complexity Gaming are priced as heavy underdogs for this match, which isn’t surprising considering they’re only third-best Rocket League team from North America. However, they might be a bit underrated.

Even though Complexity haven’t found much success in the regional league, this is a group of very experienced players with a solid synergy. As Europe’s third seed, Vitality deserve a bit more respect since they hail from a more challenging region, but they’ve not shown much more than Complexity Gaming this season.

Vitality have a higher ceiling, and they’ve won seven of their last eight series. But the quality gap between the two sides isn’t nearly as large as the offered Rocket League esports betting odds suggest. Trust Complexity Gaming to keep it close.

Rule One are considered one of the weakest teams attending Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) 2024 Major 1. Still, it’s easy to forget how good this core (ex-Team Falcons) was in previous seasons. Hisham “Nwpo” Alqadi is still an excellent player, and while Khalid “oKhaliD” Qasim and Ahmad “Ahmad” Abdullah might not be viewed as top-tier, they can carry their weight.

Gentle Mates Alpine are getting a lot of respect as Europe’s no.4 squad, but they’ve not beaten any notable teams over the last month. During RLCS 2024 Major 1: EU Open Qualifier 1, Gentle Mates looked great, but they’ve since cooled down, so we should take their early-season success with a grain of salt.

The current offer seems to be based a lot on the perceived strength of the team based on the region they’re from. But believing that Europe’s no.4 seed is much stronger than MENA’s no.2 team is too optimistic.

Team Falcons signed Saleh Abdullah “Rw9” Bakhashwin and Yazid Abdullah “Kiileerrz” Bakhashwin from Rule One at the end of 2023, forming the most dominant MENA Rocket League team. Team Falcons have won all three RLCS 2024 Major 1 MENA Open Qualifiers and cruised their way to the Saudi eLeagues 2024 Major 1 Final title last week, proving they’re more than ready to do some damage in Denmark.

OG have not been as early as successful this season, but this is an extremely experienced roster with players who all won at least one big LAN event title. Form-wise, OG aren’t in a good spot, but this could be one of the teams that will do much better on LAN.

Team Falcons are very talented and not an easy opponent. But we’re putting more weight on the LAN experience, which makes OG a very attractive choice.

FURIA Esports have been dominating the South American Rocket League esports scene. Despite their slip-up in the first RLCS 2024 Major 1: SAM Open Qualifier, FURIA hold an absurd 41-2 record since October 2023. From the start of the RLCS 2024 season, FURIA Esports are 23-2.

Beating on regional opponents doesn’t guarantee that FURIA Esports will do well on the international stage. But they’re in excellent form and have enough talent to do some damage in Denmark.

Luminosity Gaming, on the other side, haven’t looked great recently. They’re 12-6 since the start of RLCS 2024 Major 1: NA Open Qualifier 2, and their recent results are even more worrying, with three wins against The Muffin Men, M80, and Boulevard and three losses against Dignitas, OG, and Omelette from their last six.

A team’s online form doesn’t always indicate their chances to do well on LAN. But in this match, it’s tough to find a good reason to fade FURIA Esports.
