Before then, we\u2019ll get to enjoy the lower-bracket battles between Royal Never Give Up, Phoenix Gaming, LBZS, and EHOME. <\/p>\n<p>Royal Never Give Up are the favorites at <a href=\"\/dota-2\/\" title=\"Dota 2 betting\">Dota 2 sportsbooks<\/a> as they\u2019ve delivered consistent performances through their last few matches. Phoenix Gaming have had a good run but lost to a couple of opponents that RNG dominated. RNG were also victorious in their previous encounter with Phoenix Gaming.<\/p>\n<p>In the second battle of the first round, EHOME are the sportsbooks\u2019 favorites. After they reshuffled their roster, we\u2019ve seen improved performances. EHOME\u2019s strategies are fresh, leaving their opponents unable to analyze what\u2019s coming.<\/p>\n<h2>Africa esports news<\/h2>\n<h3>FIFA 21 For Charity<\/h3>\n<p>Two of Goliath Gaming\u2019s top FIFA esports players will participate in an exhibition match where the winnings will go towards a charity of their choosing.

The best-of-three clash will be an intense one as the two know each other\u2019s strategies well and are among the top players in the country.<\/p>\n<p>South African sportsbooks have the odds in Yvng Savage\u2019s favor. According to last season\u2019s standings, he ranks first on PS4 in South Africa and 73rd globally.

They\u2019ve dominated this matchup on several occasions, with Heroic\u2019s last victory coming in February 2018. Astralis have become an unstoppable force lately, and it\u2019s clear to see they\u2019re Heroic\u2019s kryptonite.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s unlikely Heroic will defeat Astralis for a spot in the upper-bracket semi-finals on October 1. <a href=\"\/sites\/\" title=\"Best esports bookmakers\">Esports betting sites<\/a> are backing Astralis in this encounter.<\/p>\n<h2>South America esports news<\/h2>\n<h3>Key battles in round four of Tribo To Major<\/h3>\n<p>Round four of the Tribo To Major is upon us with three battles taking place.

Both sides have won all three of their games so far and will only face each other in round five later in the week.<\/p>\n<p>Of the three matches taking place, the battle between Keyd Stars and Isurus will be the closest. Both teams are on equal footing and match up well. Isurus are still adjusting to their recent roster change; however, they\u2019ve won one of their battles so far, whereas Keyd are yet to prevail.<\/p>\n<h2>Oceania esports news<\/h2>\n<h3>Top two set to clash in Oceanic Esports League<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s a battle between the two on the top of the ladder as Adio Chula and cuteanimegirls face off in week nine. It\u2019s going to be a tough match for Adio Chula as they look to take the number one position from cuteanimegirls, but they might not have what it takes.<\/p>\n<p>Australian sportsbooks favor cuteanimegirls, who\u2019ve dominated the tournament so far. Adio Chula are fair competitors, however, and the last match between these sides in a draw. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ESB brings you the top stories in esport and online gaming from around the world, including the latest Dota 2, CS:GO and FIFA news&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":8613,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":"","wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[1380,832,430,4,55,315],"class_list":["post-13791","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-china-dota2-pro-cup","tag-dreamhack-open","tag-esl-pro-league","tag-featured","tag-fifa","tag-oceanic-pro-league"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13791"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13791"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13791\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13794,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13791\/revisions\/13794"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8613"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13791"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13791"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13791"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
