Match Prediction: JD Gaming - Bilibili Gaming | LoL

Welcome back to the LPL Spring 2023 play-offs. We have prepared a betting tip for the JD Gaming - Bilibili Gaming match as part of our review of the main stage of the Chinese league spring split.

The betting tip for JDG - BBG is based on regular season results, success of Bilibili Gaming directly in the LPL Spring 2023 play-offs, as well as the personal level of players and team statuses. To complete the picture in the analysis we have watched the games of the participants and now are ready to share our opinion.

The match, nothing less than that, is for a place in the top 3 of the tournament. This is important as the 2 teams from China will go to MSI 2023, the first international tournament of the year that we don't want to miss.

The form of JD Gaming - the first contender to win the LPL Spring 2023

Let's start our review of the match by analysing the JD Gaming's playing form. In this match, they are playing in the status of the favourites.

The pre-match position is confirmed by the bookmakers. The odds on JD Gaming to win this game are at 1.4 and such quotes are easily explained.

JD Gaming didn't just go straight into the tournament's play-offs, finishing the regular season with a 13-5 statistic, they also act as a major contender to win the tournament as a whole. Last season they won the summer split - LPL Summer 2023 - and played at Worlds 2022, where they finished in the top 4.

There have been a few changes to the squad since then, but they have not been a weakening. On the contrary, the team picked up momentum in the regular season and the quality of the players will enable them to close the first play-offs.

• JD Gaming line-up: 369, Kanavi, Knight, Ruler, Missing.

After the Top 4 at Wolrds 2022, Yagao and Hope left the line-up and Knight and Ruler took their place. The latter quickly became the team's headliner, becoming the championship MVP for the 10th week of games, and the first two.

JD Gaming competently execute classic characters. Like virtually all teams in the top division, the team plays default and plays well, otherwise they wouldn't be in the top 2 of the group stage.

JD Gaming's most popular champions for each position

• Top line: Renekton (7 games, 71% wins), KSante (7 games, 85% wins).
• Jungle: Vi (6 games, 66% wins), Lee Sin (6 games, 100% wins).
• Centre Line: Syndra (6 matches, 100% wins).
• Gunner: Varus (10 matches, 80% wins).
• Sappers: Ashe (6 matches, 100% wins), Yummi (5 matches, 60%)

JD Gaming remain one of the few teams that frequently use Ashe and Yummi in their matches. Given their Missing status, they can believe themselves.

On account of their status alone, JD Gaming should pass their match. The team's core positions are played by some of the best in the region, only slightly Ledgea to the run leaders in the form of Scout and Leave from EDG.

Betting on JD Gaming to win at 1.4 is a stable choice and minimal risk. However, Bilibili Gaming also have something to offer the favourite of the match.

Bilibili Gaming uniforms - the grands killers at LPL Spring 2023

Let's move on to an overview of the Bilibili Gaming uniforms. The team will play in underdog status, as the bookies are telling us.

The odds of Bilibili Gaming winning and making it to the top 3 are estimated at odds in the region of 2.8. Such a figure is due to BBG's performance over the course of the season.

In the regular season they finished in fifth place with 10-6 statistics. But that didn't stop them from killing the top teams in the play-offs.

Having reached the main stage of the tournament, Bilibili Gaming had time to prepare for LPL Summer 2023: BBG knocked out RNG and Weibo Gaming that had high chances for success in the main stage. All thanks to the team performance and capacity of Bilibili's performers.

• Bilibili Gaming line-up: Bin, XUN, Yagao, Elk, ON

In the group stage, Elk and XUN were effective. In the play-offs, ON joined Elk and together they earned 4 MVP titles.

From The International, Yagao was the most important player in the roster. The leader has moved to Bilibili Gaming from JD Gaming, which means the match will be fundamental.

Let's see what Bilibili Gaming will surprise in terms of draft picks. They have some very unique picks.

Bilibili Gaming's most popular champions

• Top Line: Kenen (3 matches, 100% wins).
• Jungle: Lee Sin (3 matches, 100% wins).
• Centre Line: Veigar (3 matches, 100% wins).
• Arrow: Zeri (3 games, 100% win rate), Aphelios (3 matches, 100% win rate).
• Support: Rakan (2 matches, 50% wins), Leona (2 matches, 100% win rate).

Bilibili Gaming can win thanks to their unique peaks and experience in the play-offs of LPL Spring 2023. Believe in this outcome - your bet is a BBG win for 2.8.

Predicted outcome for JD Gaming vs Bilibili Gaming

This match has every chance of seeing a close game, as Bilibili Gaming have positive experience in this season's play-offs and have a very distinctive pool of champions. Will be fighting for Lee Sin,

I see JD Gaming as the winner. The status of the squad and personal level of performers will allow to beat BBG in the semifinals of LPL Spring 2023 and pass to the next round, however to do it without a draw is unlikely.
