Atlanta Braves vs Chicago Cubs: prediction for the MLB match
The Atlanta Braves play host to the Chicago Cubs in the MLB on Wednesday. Will the reigning World Series champion get a win today? Here's our prediction.

Command Analysis

Atlanta Braves

The Atlanta Braves struggle to find their form at the start of the regular season. After 18 games, Brian Snitker's side is at 0.444 and sits in 10th place in the National League standings. The Cubs are a comfortable opponent for the hosts - last season, the Braves won five out of seven head-to-head games. In the opening game of the current home series, Snitker's men got a confident 3:1 victory.

Chicago Cubs

The Chicago Cubs lost four of their last five games and dropped to the 12th line in the National League table. The team has a decent offensive record, but mostly because of a single game against the Pittsburgh Pirates (21-0). It was disappointing to see the Cubs fail to create anything interesting on offense in the last game.
