Nemiga vs. 1WIN Betting Preview

Even though Nemiga is a slight favorite in this one, my advice is to stay away from backing them to win. In fact, I believe 1WIN is closer to getting a victory here, but I will avoid betting on the winner at all. If you are brave enough, go with 1WIN. I will stick to the safer option and 1Win to cover a +1.5 handicap at lower odds, but it should be a sure shot. That said, you can use this tip on your parlay.

The Pick: 1WIN +1.5 Map Handicap (-233 @GGBET)
