GEN.G vs TOP ESPORTS LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |

| Best Odds: | Gen.G -285.71 at BetOnline | TES +209 at BetOnline |

Gen.G are outright favourites in League of Legends Esports World Cup 2024 title betting, priced at +125. This puts them well ahead of Bilibili Gaming at +250, and for good reason.
Gen.G are the most successful team of the season. They won LoL Champions Korea (LCK) 2024 Spring, secured their maiden Mid-Season Invitational title in May, and won all six of their LCK 2024 Summer series.
Nevertheless, the gap between the elite teams is exaggerated, and we shouldn’t be getting +209 on a Top Esports outfit that pushed Gen.G to five maps in May. The value is with the underdogs.

FLYQUEST vs G2 ESPORTS LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |
|
|---|---|
| Best Odds: | FLY +500 at BetOnline | G2 -909.09 at BetOnline |

At the offered LoL esports betting odds, FlyQuest are given only a 16.7% implied probability of winning the series. While that’s a very low number, it shouldn’t surprise anyone.
While they both come from major leagues, the quality gap between G2 Esports and FlyQuest is significant. G2 are by far the best non-Asian LoL esports team, while FlyQuest are hardly the second-best squad from the LoL Championship Series (LCS).
Even at MSI 2024, it was evident that FlyQuest were not at the level to compete against elite teams, and they’ve not shown any improvement since. Anything less than a 2-0 sweep for the European champions would be a massive disappointment.
