Chicago Cubs vs St. Louis Cardinals: prediction for the MLB game
The Chicago Cubs lock horns with the St. Louis Cardinals in the final game of the series. Who will win on Sunday night? Here's our prediction.
Command Analysis
Chicago Cubs
USAThe Chicago Cubs are in pretty good team form. This week they recorded a couple of wins and are now at 0.426. The Cubs can't yet move above their current 13th place in the National League table, but if they keep up their good work, they might soon crack the top 10. With a decent start against the Cardinals, the hosts will look to secure a victory in the final match (7:5, 5:14, 6:1, 4:7).
St. Louis Cardinals
USAThe St. Louis Cardinals have encountered difficulties on this road trip. Oliver Marmol's men are currently in 5th place in the National League standings, but they don't look more powerful or interesting than their hosts. It is now 2-2 in the series after the Cardinals leveled the score last night. It is possible for the visitors to climb up a few lines if they win the final game.

In the beginning innings, the visitors are somewhat constrained, but they tend to give it their all in the later innings. In the series finale, both sides will certainly try to win. The Cardinals are a better team on paper and should get the upper hand here.
