Minnesota R\u00d8KKR got off to an excellent start to Call of Duty League Major 4 Qualifiers with two wins against Florida Mutineers (3-0) and Los Angeles Guerrillas (3-1), but have not achieved much since then. With defeats against New York Subliners (1-3), Atlanta FaZe (2-3), and Los Angeles Thieves (0-3), the R\u00d8KKR barely finished the qualifiers inside the top eight.<\/p>\n

R\u00d8KKR have had their moments this season, but seeing them defeat only two of the bottom teams in the qualifiers doesn\u2019t inspire much confidence ahead of CDL Major 4.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles Thieves finished CDL Major 4 Qualifiers with a 4-1 record, with just one defeat against the outright betting favourites to win the Major, OpTic Texas. But most importantly, Los Angeles Thieves swept R\u00d8KKR (3-0) in the final week of the qualifiers.<\/p>\n

R\u00d8KKR have some good qualities, but they\u2019ve not shown enough for us to believe that they can defeat Los Angeles Thieves, who are strong candidates to win the upcoming Major. Expect the same result as on Sunday.<\/p>\n

NEW YORK SUBLINERS vs LAS VEGAS LEGION CDL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nSubliners $1.44 at GG Bet<\/a> | Legion $2.62 at GG Bet<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nApril 20, 2023 | 15:00 EDT<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Las Vegas Legion ended CDL Major 4 Qualifiers with a 4-1 record and only one loss against London Royal Ravens (1-3). That loss looked very concerning when it happened, but the Legion have since picked up fairly convincing victories against Los Angeles Guerrillas (3-2), Toronto Ultra (3-2), and Florida Mutineers (3-1).<\/p>\n

Although the Legion still have a lot more to prove, namely against the top teams, they look like a dangerous outsider to make a deep run at CDL Major 4.<\/p>\n

New York Subliners are priced as $1.44 favourites with CoD betting sites<\/a>, which sounds fair. They have looked better throughout the qualifiers, and this team arguably fields better players; however, it wouldn\u2019t be too shocking to see Las Vegas Legion do some damage.<\/p>\n

Las Vegas Legion have looked better in Search & Destroy, New York Subliners should do better in Control, while Hardpoint will most likely depend on the map. So even though the Subliners should win, the Legion have a realistic chance to cause an upset.<\/p>\n

OPTIC TEXAS vs BOSTON BREACH CDL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nOpTic $1.33 at GG Bet<\/a> | Breach $3.25 at GG Bet<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nApril 20, 2023 | 17:30 EDT<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Boston Breach are an interesting team. They finished the CDL Major 4 Qualifiers with just two wins against Toronto Ultra (3-2) and London Royal Ravens (1-3) and lost against Las Vegas Legion (1-3), OpTic Texas (1-3), and New York Subliners (0-3). Those results aren\u2019t great, but the Breach performed well on Search & Destroy and Control.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Boston Breach struggle in Hardpoint (2-7), and unless something changes ahead of Thursday, they will struggle. And it doesn\u2019t help that they\u2019ll face OpTic, who are the current top dogs to win the Major and a team that crushed Boston Breach just a couple of days ago.<\/p>\n

The question here is not so much whether OpTic will win but rather by how much. Considering how much better OpTic are than most other teams in the league, this should be a 3-0, but OpTic are known to drop maps, so another 3-1 seems most likely.<\/p>\n

A correct score wager is an option, but we\u2019re happy with the price on OpTic with a 1.5 map handicap.<\/p>\n

SEATTLE SURGE vs ATLANTA FAZE CDL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS<\/h2>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Best Odds:<\/td>\nSurge $2.37 at GG Bet<\/a> | FaZe $1.53 at GG Bet<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
When:<\/td>\nApril 20, 2023 | 19:00 EDT<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Seattle Surge are one of the most unpredictable teams in the league, but they look to be on the upswing. They won four games in CDL Major 4 Qualifiers against Toronto Ultra (2-3), Florida Mutineers (3-1), Atlanta FaZe (3-0), and Los Angeles Guerrillas (3-0) and looked very good doing it.<\/p>\n

The 3-0 sweep against FaZe alone is enough to earn Seattle Surge some respect, but this squad has been performing extremely well throughout this split \u2013 the only question is whether they can keep playing at this level.<\/p>\n

Atlanta FaZe are always a scary team, but their past showings left a lot to be desired. In the qualifiers, FaZe defeated Toronto Ultra (3-1), Minnesota R\u00d8KKR (3-2), and Florida Mutineers (3-2) but were far less successful against the Subliners (2-3), and Seattle Surge (0-3).<\/p>\n

This could be the case of FaZe going through a small slump before they turn on their jets at the Major, but with the form Seattle Surge is in, they\u2019re worth a bet at the offered CDL betting odds to defeat FaZe for the second time in one week.<\/p>\n
