CDL Major 4 Qualifiers betting tips & odds – Friday, April 7

The second week of Call of Duty League (CDL) Major 4 Qualifiers starts on Friday, April 7, and here you can our free betting picks for Florida Mutineers vs Seattle Surge and New York Subliners vs Minnesota RØKKR.

Seattle Surge finished the first week of CDL Major 4 Qualifiers with a 1-1 record, which is pretty impressive considering they had to face Los Angeles Thieves (1-3) and CDL Major 3 champions Toronto Ultra (3-2). They’re now left with a relatively easy schedule, needing to face Florida Mutineers, Los Angeles Guerrillas, and Atlanta FaZe, so without any major upsets, the Surge should reach the Major.

Florida Mutineers were far less successful in the first week of the qualifiers, losing against Minnesota RØKKR (0-3) and Atlanta FaZe (2-3). However, despite going 0-2, the Mutineers took FaZe to game five, which is nothing to sneeze at.

Seattle Surge have looked good since CDL Major 3 Qualifiers and are objectively stronger than the Mutineers. Even though the Mutineers have shown some flashes over the last month, most of their success came from their opponents not playing as well as they should.

We’re giving the Mutineers the benefit of the doubt that they’ll win one map, but anything beyond that seems unlikely. Take Seattle Surge to win 3-1 on the correct score market.

Minnesota RØKKR won both of their series in Week 1 of CDL Major 4 Qualifiers against Florida Mutineers (3-0) and Los Angeles Thieves (3-1). Even though they didn’t play the best of the competition, going 2-0 is respectable, considering they went through a stage where they didn’t win a single match over eight series.

The sudden resurgence came shortly after the RØKKR replaced Dillon “Attach” Price with Kevin “Fame” Bonanno, and even though it’s tough to make any firm conclusions from the two wins, Minnesota RØKKR are playing better.

Still, they’ve yet to show enough to be considered serious title contenders. On the other side, the New York Subliners have done enough this season to be viewed as a strong team, but their recent slump puts an asterisk next to their status as live underdogs to win the CDL Championship.

They beat Atlanta FaZe (3-2) in game five last week, but we’ve seen it before where the Subliners played well against top teams but then blundered against weaker squads. The Subliners are the superior team on paper, but they’re not consistent enough to warrant a bet at the offered CDL betting odds.

New York Subliners might still win, but it won’t be as one-sided as the Call of Duty betting odds suggest.
