Top eSports Betting Picks of the Week – January 8th

Call of Duty League

LA Guerillas vs. Atlanta FaZe

  • When: Friday, January 12, 2024

The Guerillas hadn’t been playing well, but in their last couple of matches, they stepped it up some, falling by just a goal to the New York Subliners 3-2 and then beating Los Angeles Thieves 3-0.

Atlanta FaZe has won 5 straight. The FaZe doesn’t often win by more than a couple of games. But the payout for laying the games in this is fantastic. Back the ATL.

eSports Betting Pick: Atlanta FaZe -2.5 +129

Seattle Surge vs. Toronto Ultra

  • When: Friday, January 12, 2024

Seattle is on a 2-match losing streak. The good news if you plan on backing the Surge is that the losses were against OpTic Texas and Atlanta FaZe, two of the best teams in the Call of Duty League.

Toronto Ultra has won 3-of-5. But Ultra heads into this off a loss. Give Seattle a shot to end the losing streak.

eSports Betting Pick: Seattle Surge +174

Miami Heretics vs. Seattle Surge

  • When: Saturday, January 13, 2024

If the Surge ends the streak on Friday, there’s a good chance they carry momentum into their Saturday matchup versus the Miami Heretics.

But Miami is undefeated. So if Miami is undefeated with a 3-0 record, why are they +150 dogs? Ah, the 3 wins came versus Carolina, Las Vegas, and Minnesota. Seattle makes it 2 straight wins.

eSports Betting Pick: Seattle Surge -208

OpTic Texas vs. Las Vegas Legion

  • When: Saturday, January 13, 2024

Optic is on a 3-match winning streak while the Legion have dropped 3 straight. Not only has Vegas lost 3 straight, but he 3 losses were against Carolina, Miami, and the New York Subliners.

Texas is a better team than those three for sure. OpTic Texas covers.

eSports Betting Pick: OpTic Texas -1.5 -217

Minnesota ROKKR vs. Carolina Royal Ravens

  • When: Sunday, January 14, 2024

Minnesota versus Carolina should be a competitive match. Neither side can hang with the better squads in the Call of Duty League, which means ROKKER, and the Royal Ravens are on the same level.

Because that’s the case, Carolina is the play. Minnesota has lost 5 straight while the Royal Ravens show a December 10 win over the Las Vegas Legion.

eSports Betting Pick: Carolina Royal Ravens +109

New York Subliners vs. LA Thieves

  • When: Sunday, January 14, 2024

The Subliners are rolling, dominating opponents. The Thieves are in decent form, but they should have no chance versus NYS.

The Subliners beat the Las Vegas Legion 3-0 in their last. A win over OpTic Texas in early December is also in their last 5 form cycle. NYS covers the -1.5.

eSports Betting Pick: New York Subliners -1.5 +102
