Schalke 04 finished the regular season in a very respectable fourth place, yet <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/league-of-legends\/\" title=\"LoL bookmakers\">LoL betting sites<\/a> have them priced as massive underdogs for their clash with G2 Esports this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>While we have seen S04 succeed in this matchup before, winning a one-off clash is significantly easier than doing the same in a best-of-five environment &#8211; especially against one of the most efficient best-of teams in the world. G2 are exceptionally versatile and possess the ability to play many different playstyles, which makes them a tough team to prepare for.<\/p>\n\n<!-- Table view: sport-content -->\n\n <div class=\"content-bonus-grid\">\n\n    \n\n<article class=\"bonus-grid-card rank-1\" id=\"betonline-sport-content\">\n\n    <div class=\"grid-card_logo\" style=\"background-color: #161616\"> \n             <p class=\"recommended-bonus-card\">Recommended!<\/p>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/data-central\/images\/casinos\/racemedia\/betonlinesport.svg\" id=\"betonline-sport\" alt=\"BetOnline\" title=\"Play at BetOnline\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/data-central\/images\/casinos\/racemedia\/betonlinesport.svg\" id=\"betonline-sport\" alt=\"BetOnline\" title=\"Play at BetOnline\"\/><\/noscript>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"grid-card_info\">\n        <p>Fast Payouts<\/p>\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/betonline\/\" title=\"Claim bonus at BetOnline\"  target=\"_blank\"><p><em>50% matched deposit up to USD $5,000<\/em><\/p><\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"grid-card_cta\">\n        <a  href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/betonline\/\" title=\"Claim bonus at BetOnline\" target=\"_blank\">Visit BetOnline<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"grid-card_terms\">\n    <p> \n        <\/p>\n    <\/div>\n\n<\/article>\n    \n   \n\n     \n\n<article class=\"bonus-grid-card rank-2\" id=\"bovada-sport-content\">\n\n    <div class=\"grid-card_logo\" style=\"background-color: #1e232a\"> \n         <img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/data-central\/images\/casinos\/racemedia\/bovadasport.svg\" id=\"bovada-sport\" alt=\"Bovada\" title=\"Play at Bovada\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/data-central\/images\/casinos\/racemedia\/bovadasport.svg\" id=\"bovada-sport\" alt=\"Bovada\" title=\"Play at Bovada\"\/><\/noscript>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"grid-card_info\">\n        <p>Live Betting Odds<\/p>\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/bovada-esport\/\" title=\"Claim bonus at Bovada\"  target=\"_blank\"><p><em>Claim a 50% deposit bonus up to the value of USD $250<\/em><\/p><\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"grid-card_cta\">\n        <a  href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/bovada-esport\/\" title=\"Claim bonus at Bovada\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Bovada<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"grid-card_terms\">\n    <p> \n        <\/p>\n    <\/div>\n\n<\/article>\n    \n   \n\n     <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n    \n\n<p>S04 found plenty of success with more teamfighting-oriented compositions throughout the regular season but started to struggle once switching to a Tristana-Nidalee setup, so they will likely look to use the former approach here. The problem is that G2 have found success with many different playstyles and are better at teamfighting than S04.<\/p>\n<p>Schalke 04\u2019s other strength is their flexibility with their picks, but that comes more in scaling and teamfighting rather than early-game strength, which is a huge stylistic problem for this bout. While we believe S04 have the tools to make the series exciting and close, G2 are a much stronger team and shouldn&#8217;t drop a map.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tipsBanner\">\n<h4>G2 Esports -2.5 maps<\/h4>\n<div>\n+120<br \/>\n<span>at<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/betonline\/\"  title=\"Claim bonus at BetOnline\"  target=\"_blank\">BetOnline<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Esportbet.com brings you the top odds and best bets for Schalke 04 vs G2 Esports in the LEC Spring Playoffs on Saturday, March 27&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":7642,"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":[90],"tags":[4,103,24,989,1598,107],"class_list":["post-16650","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-predictions","tag-featured","tag-g2-esports","tag-league-of-legends","tag-lec-spring-split","tag-playoffs","tag-schalke-04"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16650"}],"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\/19"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16650"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16650\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16652,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16650\/revisions\/16652"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7642"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16650"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16650"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16650"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
