GUMIHO vs HEROMARINE SC2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nGuMiho -166.67 at BetOnline<\/a> | HeRoMaRiNe +137 at BetOnline<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nFebruary 8, 2024 | 12:00 CET<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Koh “GuMiho” Byung-jae and Gabriel Raffaele “HeRoMaRinE” Segat have yet to meet in 2024 but have clashed four times last year. The latter won the first meeting at ESL Open Cup #167 Americas and lost the remaining three series 1-2, worsening the German’s all-time head-to-head record to 3-6.<\/p>\n

GuMiho and HeRoMaRinE have not met once since May 2023, so the head-to-head figures might not hold as much weight. Still, GuMiho is in good form ahead of this clash and is fresh off a semifinal run at ESL Open Cup #212 Korea. HeRoMaRinE’s only notable accomplishment this year was finishing top four at ESL Open Cup #209 Europe.<\/p>\n

Even at -166.67 with the top StarCraft II betting<\/a> sites, GuMiho looks a bit undervalued. As such, GuMiho to cover the map handicap is worth a look.<\/p>\n

SCARLETT vs TRIGGER SC2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nScarlett -204.08 at BetOnline<\/a> | trigger +151 at BetOnline<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nFebruary 8, 2024 | 14:00 CET<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Watch Live:<\/td>\nTwitch (https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/esl_sc2)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Sasha “Scarlett” Hostyn has met with Yoon “trigger” Hong 14 times since their first clash in March 2021 and enters this match with a 10-1-3 head-to-head record. That includes two wins from 2023 at ESL Open Cup #172 Americas and HomeStory Cup XXIV at the start of December.<\/p>\n

Form-wise, neither player has shown much ahead of Intel Extreme Masters Katowice 2024. Scarlett placed 19th-22nd at WardiTV 2023 at the start of January, whereas trigger’s most recent appearance at a Premier-tier event (Master’s Coliseum 7) ended with a 15th-16th finish.<\/p>\n

Priced at +151 with esports betting sites<\/a>, trigger is expected to struggle on Thursday. He hasn’t beaten Scarlett once since November 2022 and comes up against a player with a 61.8% all-time win rate in Zerg vs Protoss matchups.<\/p>\n
