The match between JD Gaming and Top Esports will take place on February 27, 2025, at 11:00 EET as part of the playoffs for LPL Split 1 2025. The teams will face off in a Bo5 series, and we offer a prediction for this match.

Current Team Form

JD Gaming

JD Gaming started the season confidently, showing stable results in the group stage. They secured victories over Ultra Prime, Oh My God, and Weibo Gaming. In the playoffs, the team defeated ThunderTalk Gaming but then lost to Anyone’s Legend, which placed them in the lower bracket. The main strength of JD Gaming is the experienced mid laner Scout, who consistently dominates his lane, as well as the bot lane Peyz and Missing, capable of deciding the outcome of battles in the late game.

Top Esports

Top Esports did not start the season as confidently, losing to Anyone’s Legend in the group stage. However, in the playoffs, the team transformed, defeating Invictus Gaming, Ninjas in Pyjamas, and Bilibili Gaming. In recent games, JackeyLove and Crisp have shown excellent synergy in the bot lane, while the aggressive style of Kanavi in the jungle has created a lot of pressure on the map.

Match Prediction

Both teams come into the match in fighting form, but Top Esports appear slightly more favored due to their series of confident victories in the playoffs. JD Gaming can put up a fight, especially if Scout can dominate in the mid lane, but TES currently look more balanced and confident.
