?As the latest CoD betting odds suggest, New York Subliners should win, and we have no reason to doubt that. They won CDL Pro-Am tournament, and even though they lost against Atlanta FaZe (1-3) last weekend, the new-look Subliners look very solid.
Paris Legion are the complete opposite. They’ve yet to get their feet off the ground, and they seem to be lacking in all areas of the game that would make them competitive. The Legion don’t even have a game mode in which they can be considered dangerous, and until we see some drastic changes, we wouldn’t count on them producing any upsets.
Barring any surprises, a 3-0 victory for the Subliners is the most likely outcome. They won the Pro-Am, but that did not earn them any CDL points, so they will be hungry for wins that will help them start making moves up the ladder.

?Los Angeles Thieves will veto Bocage for this series, as they’ve done 12 times this season, whereas Seattle Surge will want to remove Gavutu or Berlin, as two maps they clearly don’t want to play on – with 10 and 7 bans so far this season.
If the map veto plays out as we anticipate, we will see Berlin and Tuscan, which is a problem for the Surge since they’re not a very good team on either map (3-5 and 8-8). On the other side, Los Angeles hold a 7-4 record on Berlin and an 11-4 record on Tuscan, so either way, the Thieves should be in a much better spot.
Moreover, the Thieves have been playing well of late, and with the added advantage of a stronger map pool, they should get it done without dropping more than one map.
