ESB’s free StarCraft II betting tips for Wednesday, February 8, focus on a pair of Intel Extreme Masters Katowice 2023<\/a> matches. Here are our picks for Kim “Classic” Doh-woo vs Sasha “Scarlett” Hostyn and Eo “soO” Yun-su vs Kim “Ryung” Dong-won in the round of 32.<\/p>\n

CLASSIC vs SCARLETT SCII BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nClassic $1.66 at GG Bet<\/a> | Scarlett $2.10 at GG Bet<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nFebruary 8, 2023 | 12:00 CET<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Kim “Classic” Doh-woo and Sasha “Scarlett” Hostyn last met during the 2022 Global StarCraft II League Season 3 Qualifier in August 2020, and each won one game 2-1. Their only other meeting of 2022 came during ESL Open Cup #131 Korea when Scarlett won 2-1.<\/p>\n

But despite her leading in the head-to-head (2-1), Scarlett enters this match as a $2.10 underdog with GG Bet<\/a>. That price was likely affected by Classic’s strong showings throughout January, when he claimed bronze from Brawler’s Club #39 and reached the finals of ESL Open Cup #160 Korea. But Scarlett hasn’t disappointed, either, with two semifinal runs at ESL Open Cup #159 Korea and ESL Open Cup #159 Americas.<\/p>\n

This should be a close match, so backing Classic at $1.66 makes little sense. At best, the two StarCraft II esports<\/a> pros should be priced at even odds, so as long as we’re getting plus money on either, there’s slight value.<\/p>\n

SOO vs RYUNG SCII BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nsoO $1.66 at GG Bet<\/a> | Ryung $2.10 at GG Bet<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nFebruary 8, 2023 | 12:00 CET<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Watch Live:<\/td>\nTwitch (https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/esl_sc2)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Eo “soO” Yun-su and Kim “Ryung” Dong-won clashed eight times in 2022, winning four series and 11 rounds. But it’s easy to see why Ryung enters this bout as an underdog.<\/p>\n

Unlike soO, who placed top four at ESL Open Cup #160 Korea and finished runner-up at ESL Open Cup #160 Americas just over a week ago, Ryung hasn’t played an official match since December. SoO has also shown solid performances against Terran players lately, losing just one of his last five ZvT matchups.<\/p>\n

Everything points towards soO’s victory on Wednesday, and even though we’re getting just $1.66 with the top betting sites<\/a>, the number should be much closer to $1.45. Even at the offered odds, we’re getting solid value backing soO to win.<\/p>\n
