ESB’s free Overwatch League (OWL) betting picks for Saturday, May 14, focus on a pair of OWL Kickoff Clash Week 2 bouts in the Western Division. Here are our selections for Boston Uprising vs London Spitfire and Los Angeles Gladiators vs Dallas Fuel, with top OWL esports betting odds courtesy of BetOnline.


BOSTON UPRISING vs LONDON SPITFIRE OWL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: Uprising -250 at BetOnline | Spitfire +185 at BetOnline
When: May 14, 2022 | 12:00 PDT

?Boston Uprising kicked off the 2022 OWL season with a narrow 3-2 victory against Vancouver Titans, but they were no match for Los Angeles Gladiators (1-3) on Saturday. Meanwhile, London Spitfire ended the first week of the season with a 1-1 record, with a 0-3 defeat against San Francisco Shock and a commanding 3-0 sweep of Vancouver Titans.

Based on those results, Uprising and Spitfire should be equally strong teams, yet the esports betting sites seem to agree that the Uprising are significantly better. It seems so on paper, but Boston Uprising did not show enough last week for us to recommend a wager on them at -250.

We’re still very early into the season, and we shouldn’t overreact to results from the opening week. But at the offered OWL betting odds, it’s hard to pass on London Spitfire, who shouldn’t be priced much higher than even money.???

LOS ANGELES GLADIATORS vs DALLAS FUEL OWL BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

Best Odds: Gladiator +127 at BetOnline | Fuel -166.67 at BetOnline

?Los Angeles Gladiators head into the second week of the 2022 season with a perfect 2-0 record, having beaten New York Excelsior (3-1) and Boston Uprising (3-1). Dallas Fuel were slightly less successful, losing their season opener against Houston Dallas (0-3), but they bounced back with a 3-0 sweep of Washington Justice on Saturday.

Even though Los Angeles Gladiators picked up two wins, they enter this match as +127 underdogs, which doesn’t make much sense. That’s not to say that Dallas Fuel can’t win, but we would argue that they’re slightly weaker than the Gladiators.

We don’t need to overcomplicate things here. Los Angeles Gladiators are in great form and look stronger, making them an excellent pick at outsider odds.?
