OhMyGod! (OMG) vs. Edward Gaming (EDG) Preview & Prediction - Free 6/13 LPL Betting Picks

In an early bout of winless teams, OhMyGod comes in struggling and seeking answers following an 0-2 start to the Summer Split, at the same time an 0-1 Edward Gaming looks to even out their record and bounce back to their Spring playoff portrayal.

The bookmakers nailed this one, at least based on everything we know of recency value, with Edward Gaming a stout -290 moneyline favorite (per Bovada), while OMG is a +200 underdog, with a sweep for Edward Gaming a favorable +115. The under also seeks this narrative, laying -150 on the sweep in either direction (most likely on behalf of EDG).

Team Comparisons & Points of Interest

OhMyGod made no adjustments on their starting five going into the Summer Split, and following a loss in this match that very well may be changing that. With an abysmal .493 Kill-Death ratio, along with towers dominated against them thus far (3.8 killed to 8.2 lost), there’s little to seek confidence in here.

On the other side, Edward Gaming still represents a 16.7 kill per game average which stands as fourth-best in the LPL currently. A disappointing loss in the deciding second and third games in the match against Team WE is all that separates them from being undefeated right now and influencing the lines even further. In Game Two of that series, Edward Gaming still managed 22 kills and could have just as easily been a sweep for them.

Where Edward Gaming has appeared weak is in their tower kill abilities, averaging 4.7 killed in their three games against Team WE.

Pick: Edward Gaming -1.5 Rounds (+115 @ Bovada)

Simply stated, OhMyGod looks like they are hurting. They sputtered to finish the Spring Split, thus missing the playoffs, and I don’t believe they’ve quite recovered since.

Edward Gaming got caught slipping in game two on the fringe of sweeping Team WE and got mauled in the third game. I believe their sound stat line, as well as how they played out their Spring Split into the playoffs, speaks to their abilities to be prosperous with mechanical errors. This should, in all likelihood, be a gimme for EDG.
