Hanwha Life Esports enter this match straight off a huge 2-1 victory against Gen.G on Sunday. We wouldn’t put too much weight on that result as it was a complete fluke, fuelled by catastrophic performances from Gen.G’s ADC Park “Ruler” Jae-hyuk and support Kim “Life” Jeong-min.

Talking about fluke wins, Fredit BRION achieved the unthinkable last week when they swept DWG KIA (2-0) in what is arguably one of the biggest upsets in the history of LoL esports. Although they were not as successful against Nongshim RedForce on Sunday, BRION played relatively well considering how far down they could have been on both maps.
We are not particularly impressed with HLE this split and while they are holding a 3-1 record, that hardly shows the full picture. BRION are showing some signs of quality and at the offered odds, they’re worth a shot with a map handicap.

Gen.G have a lot to prove after their loss against HLE, whereas DWG KIA are still licking their wounds after dropping the ball against Fredit BRION, which is why we expect both sides to be highly motivated to win and justify their tag as an LCK top tog.

DWG KIA enter this match off a very sloppy performance against Afreeca Freecs on Saturday. Although DWG KIA ended up winning 2-0, we expected a lot more from the reigning LoL world champions, who need to improve if they wish to do well against elite teams such as Gen.G.

Gen.G have the tools to win the game, but we are satisfied with the odds offered on +1.5 map handicap. There is also some value on Gen.G to win 2-0 at $5.40, which might appeal to some.

Our Rainbow Six Siege betting expert has cast his eye over the four matches due to take place on January 6, 2021 and highlighted his top Korean Open esports tips.

Korean Open play is due to start at 5pm KST time on January 6, 2021.

The penultimate round of Korean Open 2020 – Winter: Regular Season will begin with a clash between SGA eSPORTS and OhHamMa (ex-SCARZ). These two rosters have never met before, so it’s very difficult to understand the massive price gap, especially considering OhHamMa are in better shape.

OhHamMa enter this match with a 4-1 record and 36-23 map differential, which is considerably better than SGA who are 2-3 with a 23-25 map differential. Even though we should give SGA some praise for their occasional flashes of greatness, they only seem to do well against weaker sides, and have on top of that lost their coach Arms_Tina just a few days ago.

Siding with the outsiders makes more sense to us even though they might have overperformed a bit in the games leading up to this one.

There is no hiding the fact that GC Busan Spear are in much better shape and while Talon Esports are a solid team, they have yet to show anything spectacular this competition. Busan enter this match without a single defeat, whereas Talon’s only loss came against Cloud9 (5-7), which is not too bad, but not good enough.

Normally we would side with Talon to upset Busan, but after seeing them struggle against OhHamMa (8-7) on Saturday, we have to place our money on the favourites to keep their unbeaten run alive.

This match seems like it can easily go both ways, not necessarily because FriendlyFire Clan and Lunatic-hai are equally strong, but because they’re both equally bad. FriendlyFire have yet to win a single match this tournament, whereas Lunatic-hai’s sole victory came against the shaky Faust (7-4) on Saturday.

The latest R6S betting odds suggest FriendlyFire have just over 50% chance to win, which might be true considering they did not look too bad in some of their games. However, we can’t ignore their 3-7 loss against Faust on Saturday, which does not convince us the outsiders are worth a bet.
