July 19 is a day of top-tier matches in League of Legends: the semifinals of the Esports World Cup 2025 and the start of the group stage for LPL Split 3. We've selected four interesting betting options based on team form, match format, and bookmaker odds.

EDward Gaming will defeat Ultra Prime (odds 1.32)

EDG have consistently performed throughout the season and are among the favorites in the Nirvana group. Ultra Prime, despite showing bursts of activity, fall short in all key metrics—from laning to macro play. The Bo3 format also favors EDG, who traditionally gain momentum during the series.

Weibo Gaming stronger than FunPlus Phoenix (odds 1.25)

Weibo enter the split with a battle-ready roster and a refined drafting system. FPX, on the other hand, are experimenting and have yet to show stability. In the Bo3 format, Weibo seems more favorable—especially in the opening matches where experience and teamwork are crucial.

Gen.G will defeat G2 Esports (odds 1.13)

The Esports World Cup 2025 semifinal is a serious challenge for G2, but Gen.G have already proven their strength by defeating Asia's leading teams. Macro play, drafts, and individual skill—all are on the side of the Korean club. A confident bet on the favorite within the LAN series.

Top Esports will claim victory over Invictus Gaming (odds 1.48)

TES look convincing, and despite not having the most stable split, they have the experience and class to outplay IG. Invictus is a team of moods, and in the opening Bo3 match, they might not withstand the pressure. TES has everything needed for victory—from pools to strong synergy between lanes.

T1 will outplay Anyone's Legend (odds 1.90)

T1 is a slight underdog according to the bookmakers, yet they are one of the most decorated teams in the tournament. AL might surprise in the early minutes, but in a series, T1 has more experience and flexibility in drafts. It's a risky but justified bet with attractive odds.
