As part of today's gaming day at LEC Summer 2022, five interesting confrontations will take place. They will be intriguing, since it is quite difficult to call them a one-way match. In this article, I want to discuss the confrontation that will take place between Team BDS and SK Gaming. Bookmaker experts define SK Gaming and believe that their chance of winning equates to a 60% chance, which translates into odds of 1.55. I propose to consider the game form of both teams and come to the conclusion whether the bookmakers are right about their guesses and whether it is worth betting on the favorite here, or alternative types of bets can be considered in this Bo1 confrontation.
Team BDS uniform
At the moment, Team BDS are in bad shape. The team was defeated eight times and won only one. They managed to beat G2 Esports, after which the team could not beat any of their opponents in the face of MAD Lions, Rogue, Astralis, Excel Esports, Fnatic, Misfits and SK Gaming in any Bo1 confrontation.
The confrontation against SK showed that in such a duel, Jenax and his comrades should win the victory, and not Team BDS. The roster was completed on May 31 with the arrival of Pole Robert 'Erdote' Nowak. Based on the fact that the team is currently on the tenth line out of ten, the team did not have time to play to the required extent and the playing form of Team BDS, to put it mildly, leaves much to be desired. BDS is the main outsider of the LEC Summer 2022 league. In this regard, I am sure that Team BDS will not be able to prevail in this match.

SK Gaming kit
SK Gaming are in the ninth position in the standings. Not far from their opponent, but still two more victories. It is noteworthy that on the debut game day, which took place on June 17, the team already played against Team BDS and won this Bo1 match. The confrontation then ended with a score of 16-12 and lasted quite a long time, and therefore we can say that this confrontation was not easy for both participants in the match.
The SK Gaming roster was completed on December 16 last year with the arrival of GIlius and Sertuss. It cannot be said that the team played well during this time, as LEC Spring 2022 ended with a busy eighth place for the European roster. Nevertheless, SK Gaming has more chances to win this confrontation.

Statistics and personal meetings
On June 17, a confrontation took place between SK Gaming and Team BDS. The teams played in a Bo1 confrontation for 44 minutes and ended the meeting with a score of 16-12 in favor of Team BDS. Despite this, the team was defeated. Based on this, it can be seen that Team BDS really had good chances of winning and the team put up good resistance.
Conclusion
Although Team BDS were defeated in the fight against SK Gaming, firstly it was June 17, and secondly, then BDS had good chances to win and even led the scoreboard in kills by four kills. All this tells me that BDS' skills cannot be underestimated in this matchup, and SK Gaming is probably the best option for Team BDS, as this opponent performs the worst, not counting BDS themselves.
In this regard, it seems to me that experts from bookmakers sensibly assess the chances of participants to win and the odds of 1.55 for the favorite of this meeting are quite justified. However, I would still count on BDS to win in this case, and a factor of 2.35 can be quite a juicy reward.
Final bet: Team BDS to win at odds of 2.35
