Recent head to head: Top Esports Team edging it
The teams have never faced each other in their history, so this will be their first-ever encounter.
Players to watch: Kanavi and Cuzz
If you’re planning to make LoL betting picks, it’s worth paying attention to Janavi and Cuzz. Both junglers have solid KP%, and the game’s pace will largely depend on their performance.
The success of other lanes heavily depends on how active the junglers are. These two players handle their roles exceptionally well — especially Kanavi, who can rightfully be considered one of the best junglers in the world.
Predicted result of the match
We’ve reached the end of our Worlds 2025 analysis, and it’s time to give our final prediction. Both teams are entering the tournament in great form, but only one will come out on top.
My LoL betting prediction: a win for Top Esports.
For me, Top Esports are the absolute favorites in this matchup. The team has shown much stronger performances throughout the season, and KT Rolster’s 2-0 record feels more like a result of a favorable bracket draw. Their previous opponents were relatively easier compared to what awaits them now. Don’t get me wrong — I’m not downplaying KT’s achievements, but the level of competition they’ve faced so far doesn’t compare to Top Esports. And this time, it’s not a Bo1 — it’s a Bo3 with Fearless Draft, which gives Top Esports an even greater advantage thanks to their massive champion pool.
