Los Angeles Gladiators vs. Seoul Dynasty
The Gladiators got past New York 3-2 in a difficult showdown on Thursday and closed out their Overwatch League Week 4 matchups with another 3-2 win over London, although they – and everyone else – was expecting a much easier time against the Spitfire. Seoul suffered a 3-1 loss to Boston on Wednesday but then put up a good effort in their narrow 3-2 loss to Philly on Friday. There is absolutely no thinking needed for this unfair matchup as Los Angeles will roll all over Seoul in this one. The Gladiators have put together a stellar 21-1-10 map record this stage while Seoul’s 15-0-21 mark doesn’t come close to suggesting they’ll do anything other than bow out with a sweep. eSports Betting Pick: L.A.
