Gen.G are 1.52 favourites to defeat Hanwha Life Esports, who enter the series as 2.50 underdogs with the best crypto betting sites. Despite HLE's success the last time they met with Gen.G it makes sense for bookmakers to price the latter as more likely to win, yet there is no denying that both teams have looked a bit off this tournament.

Hanwha Life Esports Form

Hanwha Life Esports have struggled to deal with Gen.G for the last two years, which makes a lot of sense, as this LoL esports team, by design, are not using a style which works against strong squads.

Their counter-punching style, where Hanwha Life Esports wait for their opponents to make mistakes is great for running over weaker teams who are prone to making mistakes but inefficient when faced with more composed teams who won't make as many errors.

Hanwha Life Esports produced a weird game against G2 Esports. They got ahead early and seemed like they should cruise to a victory, but a few errors turned the game into a very close one. It wasn't a very good showing – at least not as good as you would expect from one of the main favourites to win the tournament.

Gen.G Form

Gen.G are priced as favourites with Stake to defeat Hanwha Life Esports, which makes sense. Not only because they're 3-1 up in the head-to-head but because Gen.G, by design, should do well against Hanwha Life Esports, who wait for their opponents to make mistakes rather than create their own opportunities.

Gen.G are not the type of team that would make errors, but looking at their past two games at LoL Worlds 2024, they've not looked that clean. They got the job done, but this Gen.G don't look as potent as the Gen.G from the regular season – and that was noticeable in their win against Top Esports in the previous round.

It's clear that Gen.G are not in the best form, but on the other side, we've only seen them play two games, so it is not fair to make any conclusions yet.

Verdict

Hanwha Life Esports v Gen.G

Hanwha Life Esports bested Gen.G in their last meeting, yet they are priced as underdogs here. This is not too shocking as Gen.G have been the better team this season, and one loss does not change it.

The result of this match will really only come down to how stable Gen.G can be. If they can perform the way we know they can – and not make many unforced errors – they should do fine, but things can get a bit sketchy if Hanwha Life Esports are allowed to punish Gen.G.

As this is a best-of-three series, we can expect a closer affair, especially considering both teams have looked a bit worse. Gen.G should ultimately come out ahead, but we can expect HLE to take one map.
