Let’s take a look at the latest odds and the best bets for this crucial OWL playoffs fixture.<\/p>\n

Vancouver Titans<\/h2>\n

-178.57 at BetOnline<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Vancouver Titans will enter as favourites, which should come as no surprise considering they finished the regular season as first seed.<\/p>\n

The Titans defeated Seoul Dynasty (4-2) in round one of the playoffs and then bested LA Galaxy (4-2) last Sunday to secure a spot in the winners’ finals, where they will meet their toughest challenge yet.<\/p>\n

While aware NY Excelsior are no easy beats, Vancouver head into the clash knowing they have beaten their upcoming opponents twice already this season.<\/p>\n

New York Excelsior<\/h2>\n

+133 at BetOnline<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The NY outfit started the playoffs with a dominant win against London Spitfire (4-1) in round one, followed by a 4-2 win against Atlanta Reign in round two to set up a meeting with the Titans.<\/p>\n

After a disappointing 2018, Excelsior are playing like they have something prove.<\/p>\n

Vancouver Titans vs New York Excelsior betting tips<\/h2>\n

Vancouver Titans will enter this fixture as heavy favourites, yet there is a reason to believe this fixture won’t be as easy for them as the odds suggest.<\/p>\n

Their opponents have been without a doubt the most dominant team so far into the playoffs and look like a team that will not go down without a fight.<\/p>\n

While they share the same 2-0 postseason record with Vancouver, there is an argument to be made that NY Excelsior had a much tougher road to the winners’ finals.<\/p>\n

If we put the two teams side by side, the Titans have the stronger individuals; however, when we compare their team performances so far, it’s Excelsior who come out ahead.<\/p>\n

The biggest weapon for NY is their unique playstyle and strategy, which helped them overcome both London Spitfire and Atlanta Reign and could benefit them greatly in this fixture too.<\/p>\n

Both teams can win this clash just as easily as they can lose it. Vancouver might have a slight advantage, but they will not have an easy time winning this one.<\/p>\n

Excelsior have the quality to push the Titans to their limits and possibly even win. It will be a close match wither way, so the +1.5 handicap bet on NY Excelsior is a good way to go.<\/p>\n
