2026 PLL Championship Series Game best Bets

There are odds for three of the first round robin games and I have best bets for two of those. Let’s dive into my handicaps for the Outlaws-Atlas and Chaos-Atlas games.

Denver Outlaws vs. New York Atlas

Denver Moneyline/Spread+100 / +1.5
New York Moneyline/Spread-130 / -1.5

I expect this matchup between these teams to be close and while I lean Outlaws to win outright, I’m targeting the two-point goals prop of 6.5 in this game. If you look at the PLL Championship Series brief history, 14 of 26 games have seen seven or more two-pointers scored and there have been an average of 6.96 two-point goals scored.

However, in last year’s championship series, only two of the eight games saw seven or more two-point goals scored and there was an average of just 5.375 two-pointers made during that span.

I trust the goalie matchup in this one as well, with Logan McNaney being the best goaltender in the series and the other three of Owen McElroy, Will Mark and Brian Phipps all having championship series experience. This matchup also features the fewest amount of deep threats and I’d expect both teams to settle for closer-range shots in this one. Bet Under 6.5 two-point goals made at -130 on DraftKings or -138 on FanDuel.

Pick: Under 6.5 Two-Point Goals

Carolina Chaos vs. New York Atlas

Carolina Moneyline/Spread+105 / +1.5
New York Moneyline/Spread-135 / -1.5

I already discussed why I’m high on the Carolina Chaos and they’ll draw the Atlas in New York’s second game. On paper, I think the Chaos are the better team and like that we’re getting plus money on them as an underdog. Bet the Carolina Chaos moneyline at +105 on DraftKings.

Pick: Carolina Chaos ML


All bets are to win 1 unit or more (i.e. 1.2 units at -120, 1 unit at +120) unless otherwise specified.
