New York Subliners are the 5/2 favourites to win Major 2 in Boston this weekend
Major 2 of this year's Call of Duty League season gets underway on Thursday night and the New York Subliners are 5/2 favourites with bookies to win the Major.
The Subliners won Major 1 with an impressive performance in the final against Seattle Surge and they're expected to be strong again in this major.
Bet365 give them a 28% chance of winning Major 2 this weekend with the Subliners the outright favourites to win back-to-back majors.
| CDL Major 2 Winner | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| New York Subliners | 5/2 | 28,6% |
| Atlanta FaZe | 3/1 | 25.0% |
| Toronto Ultra | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| OpTic Texas | 11/2 | 15.4% |
| Boston Breach | 15/2 | 11.8% |
Boston Breach are the fifth favourites at 15/2 to win their home major with an implied probability of 11% according to the odds.
Atlanta FaZe are second favourites in the betting for Major 2 despite mixed start to the season
Bookies have made Atlanta FaZe the second favourites in the betting for Major 2 despite having a fairly mixed start to the season.
FaZe finished in 3rd place at Major 1 after losing the Winners Final to Seattle Surge then Elimination Final to New York Subliners.
The Group Stages for Stage 2 has seen FaZe finish as the 6th seed going into Major 2 and that instantly puts them into the Winners Round 1 bracket.
Simp and aBeZy, known as the Tiny Terrors, will need to be at the top of their game going into this Major to see FaZe compete to win.

OpTic Texas are #1 seed going into Major 2
OpTic Texas are the #1 seed going into Major 2 after finishing 3-0 in Stage 2 qualifiers going into the major.
Their impressive reverse sweep against FaZe last time out will give the team massive confidence going into the major and OpTic will always have big backing from the crowd too.
Bookies currently make them the 4th favourites for the Major and it will be interesting to see how they perform in their first big event following Scump's shock retirement.
The face of OpTic and arguably the face of competitive Call of Duty decided to quit the game last month and the latest OpTic roster will be wanting a big performance in this Major.
