The Brewers have a 3.75 ERA, a .237 batting average, a .308 on-base percentage, and 1.28 walks plus hits per inning pitched. William Contreras is the best player on the team with 93 hits, 56 runs and 9 home runs so far in the season.

 

Betting Trends

The Brewers are 5-0 SU in their last 5 home games, 4-1 SU in their last 5 games overall, and 6-2 SU in their last 8 home games against the Cubs. Milwaukee has played over the total run line in 6 of their last 7 games overall, 4 of their last 6 games against the Cubs, 4 of their last 5 games against teams from the NL, and 4 of their last 6 games against teams from the NL Central. The Cubs are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games overall and 2-5 SU in their last 7 games against teams from the NL. They have played under the total run line in 14 of their last 19 games overall, 8 of their last 10 games on the road, and the last six games against teams from the NL Central.

 

Prediction and Conclusion

The Milwaukee Brewers had a tough end of the last week, losing three straight in San Diego, but have bounced back and are again playing very well. They are on a four-game winning streak and will try to continue the good form with Colin Rea on the mound. The veteran is 6-2 for the season with a 3.62 ERA, 54 K, 82 IP, and 1.24 WHIP. The Cubs are moving on with their road trip from San Francisco to Milwaukee and will start with Jameson Taillon on the mound. He is 4-3 for the season with a 2.90 ERA, 53 K, 68.1 IP, and 1.27 WHIP. The Brewers are in much better form at the moment, and the Cubs had a long game and flight from the West Coast, so Milwaukee will win this one quite easily.
