On Wednesday, July 23, League of Legends fans can look forward to an action-packed day with matches in the Chinese LPL Split 3 and the Korean LCK—both in the main season and the LCK CL 2025 Season. We've selected five of the most interesting bets based on team form, current odds from Stake, and the format specifics (all matches will be held in a Best of 3 format).

Nongshim RedForce Academy to defeat Freecs Challengers (odds 1.75)
RedForce Academy is showing excellent form in the summer split—especially in late-game scenarios and map control. Freecs, on the other hand, are struggling with a lack of stability: in most recent matches, the team fails to capitalize on advantages and loses initiative. Considering the current state of the teams, betting on RedForce seems reasonable.

Dplus KIA to defeat OKSavingsBank BRION (odds 1.30)
Despite a strong academy, the main roster of BRION cannot compete with heavyweights like Dplus. The KIA team consistently defeats lower-tier teams, thanks to precise strategy execution and discipline at all stages of the game. The match could be one-sided— Dplus KIA is unlikely to slip up.

Top Esports to confidently win against FunPlus Phoenix (odds 1.04)
TES are in great form and consistently rank in the top 3 in the Ascend group. Meanwhile, FPX continues to experiment with their lineup, impacting their results. Even with low odds, a Top Esports victory is hardly in doubt—their macro play and individual skill are far superior.

Gen.G Esports to defeat Hanwha Life Esports (odds 1.40)
Gen.G is one of the favorites in LCK 2025, and they play with a cool head against lower-level teams. HLE shows inconsistent play and often loses their advantage after the 15th minute. In a Bo3 series, Gen.G's experience and teamwork are likely to be crucial.

Weibo Gaming to defeat Team WE (odds 1.52)
Weibo has found their footing in the new meta and looks strong in drafts and midgame. Although Team WE has improved their early game, they still lack depth in strategy and team coordination. Betting on Weibo's victory seems justified for those looking for a confident yet not obvious choice.
