Re: Registration Statement on Form S-3 (333-252370)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Esports Entertainment Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the above-referenced registration statement (the “Registration Statement”), the base prospectus dated February 5, 2021 (the “Base Prospectus”) and the prospectus supplement dated September 3, 2021 (the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, the “Prospectus”), relating to the offering and sale by the Company of shares (the “Shares”) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), having an aggregate offering price of up to $20,000,000, pursuant to that certain Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) dated September 3, 2021, between the Company and Maxim Group LLC. The Shares are covered by the Registration Statement and we understand that the Shares are to be offered and sold in the manner described in the Prospectus. This opinion is being delivered at the request of the Company and in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Commission.

For purposes of this opinion, we have examined such documents and reviewed such questions of law as we have considered necessary and appropriate for the purposes of our opinion set forth below. In rendering our opinion, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of all signatures and the conformity to authentic originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed the legal capacity for all purposes relevant hereto of all natural persons and, with respect to all parties to agreements or instruments relevant hereto other than the Company, that such parties had the requisite power and authority (corporate or otherwise) to execute, deliver and perform such agreements or instruments, that such agreements or instruments have been duly authorized by all requisite action (corporate or otherwise), executed and delivered by such parties and that such agreements or instruments are the valid, binding and enforceable obligations of such parties. As to questions of fact material to our opinions, we have relied upon certificates of officers of the Company and of public officials.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and sold by the Company and delivered by the Company against receipt of the purchase price therefor, in the manner contemplated by the Prospectus and the Equity Distribution Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

The opinions expressed herein are limited to the laws of the Nevada Revised Statutes of the State of Nevada and the laws of the State of New York, as currently in effect, and no opinion is expressed with respect to any other laws or any effect that such other laws may have on the opinions expressed herein.

We consent to the filing of this opinion with the SEC as Exhibit 5.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 3, 2021, which is incorporated by reference in the Prospectus. We also consent to the reference of our firm under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus and in each case in any amendment or supplement thereto. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 and Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder.

Very Truly Yours,

/s/ Lucosky Brookman LLP
