Karmine Corp and Movistar Riders will cross swords on Friday, September 8, in the final of EMEA Masters 2023 Summer. KC are $1.61 favourites with most League of Legends betting sites as they chase their fourth EMEA Masters title, while the bookies have Movistar pegged at $2.20 to claim their first.
Some roster changes in the spring made Karmine Corp significantly better than they were in the first split of the year, but throughout EMEA Masters 2023 Summer, KC have shown some weaknesses. They twice lost to Macko Esports in the group stage and barely made it past Team GO in the semifinals.
Movistar Riders weren’t perfect in the group stage either; however, they have looked like an entirely different beast in the first two rounds of the knockout stage, producing 3-0 sweeps of GTZ Esports and Macko Esports.
This should be a very competitive series, with the spotlight set on the midlane matchup between Bart?omiej “Fresskowy” Przewo?nik and Lucas “Saken” Fayard. With little to separate the two teams, Movistar Riders at above evens is the right play.
