As the season matches of Stage 2 of the Overwatch League<\/a> draws to a close on Saturday, March 24, we will see some of the very best teams in action.<\/p>\n

Playoff bound London Spitfire and New York Excelsior will be hoping to fine tune their games before Sunday’s playoffs, which will see four teams playing off for a share of $125,000. <\/p>\n

Our Overwatch League guru Kenny R has previewed all the betting<\/a> for Saturday’s matches<\/em> <\/p>\n

Dallas Fuel (2W \u2013 6L) vs. London Spitfire (6W \u2013 2L)<\/h2>\n

Match date: March 24th<\/strong> <\/p>\n

Lately, Dallas Fuel has been dropping harder than cryptocurrencies on a bad day. Furthermore, the team is facing a scary opponent in this match. Subsequently, anything other than a 3 \u2013 0 or 4 \u2013 0 victory in favor of London Spitfire would be a huge surprise.<\/p>\n

Best bet:<\/strong> London Spitfire will be too strong here, back them at -1428.57 with BetOnline<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles Valiant (4W \u2013 4L) vs. New York Excelsior (7W \u2013 1L)<\/h2>\n

Match date: March 24th<\/strong> <\/p>\n

There is absolutely no chance for Los Angeles Valiant to win this match. Not in their current form and not against this opponent. Last time they met, New York Excelsior easily won the match (score 3 \u2013 0) and was considered to be the team with the highest chances of winning Stage 1. They finished 2nd in that stage but are on their way to winning Stage 2. At this point, a victory for New York Excelsior in this encounter is almost a certainty.<\/p>\n

Best bet:<\/strong> Bet on New York Excelsior here, back them at -833.33 with BetOnline<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Boston Uprising (4W \u2013 4L) vs. Los Angeles Gladiators (6W \u2013 2L)<\/h2>\n

Match date: March 24th<\/strong>
\nTo better understand just how big the skill difference between these two teams is, consider the fact that 2 weeks ago, London Spitfire defeated Boston Uprising without dropping a single map (score 4 \u2013 0) and then went on to lose against Los Angeles Gladiators with the score of 1 \u2013 3.
\nThe Los Angeles team is on a rampage right now and there are very few opponents that can go head to head with it. Boston Uprising is almost certainly not one of them.<\/p>\n

Best bet:<\/strong> Gladiators in a canter, back them at -181.82 with BetOnline<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
