The final week of the League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK) 2023 Spring split will see the top six teams battle it out for the spots from second to sixth in their last two series.

T1 vs DPLUS KIA LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: T1 -250 at BetOnline | DK +175 at BetOnline
When: March 16, 2023 | 17:00 KST
Watch Live: Lolesports, Twitch

The first series to be played on Thursday in the LCK will see first-placed T1 and second-placed Dplus KIA clash for the second time this split, after T1 took the first meeting 2-1 back in week two.

T1 are the only team in the top six that cannot move in the standings, as their record of 15-1 puts them four wins ahead of their closest rival, Dplus KIA. T1 have won their last 10 matches, with their only defeat coming in week three at the hands of Hanwha Life Esports. They have already booked their spot in the upper-bracket semifinals, but they can still play a big role in deciding where Dplus KIA can finish in the top four.

Dplus KIA currently sit second in the LCK standings with a 12-4 record, one win ahead of Gen.G and KT Rolster, so they must win one of their final two series to finish in the top two. However, their final two matches will be against T1 and Gen.G, which means they will have to be at their best, as they lost to both of those teams the last time they met. Dplus are currently on a six-series win streak, so if there was any time to meet those two top teams, it’s now.

We should be in for another cracking series between these top-tier LCK teams. They went to three maps earlier in the split, and we expect to see another thrilling contest that goes the distance.

HANWHA LIFE ESPORTS vs GEN.G LoL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: HLE +162 at BetOnline | GEN.G -227.27 at BetOnline
When: March 16, 2023 | 19:30 KST
Watch Live: Lolesports, Twitch

The second series of the day will pit fifth-placed Hanwha Life Esports against third-placed Gen.G, with both teams needing a win to keep their chances of finishing in the top four and top two alive, respectively.

Hanwha Life Esports enter this series against Gen.G having lost three of their previous four series, going down to KT Rolster, T1, and Dplus KIA. HLE clawed their way back into contention during the middle stages of the LCK Spring, defeating T1 and racking up five consecutive victories. However, HLE have struggled against some of the top teams they will face in the playoffs, which does not bode well for their title chances.

Gen.G come into this series in similar form, having won just one of their last three series while losing the other two to Kwangdong Freecs and KT Rolster. Gen.G will be relieved that their fortunes have improved after defeating BRION 2-0 in their most recent series. They will also have in the back of their mind that they defeated HLE in a close 2-1 series the last time they met, which should be more positive motivation. Gen.G need to win both of their remaining series against HLE and Dplus KIA and hope that Dplus slip up and loses to T1, giving them the best chance to finish second at the end of the split.

These two teams will be desperate for a win on Thursday, so we don’t expect a 2-0 victory either way, so we’ll take the overs in the total maps market.
