Second-place Rain or Shine lock horns with fourth-place Meralco in this 2026 PBA Governors' Cup Group B clash on Sunday. The E-Painters have lost three of their last four PBA games against the Bolts across all conferences, making us back a Meralco victory in our prediction.
After a disappointing 0–2 start, Rain or Shine Elasto Painters have turned the corner in their 2026 PBA Governors' Cup campaign. They come into this clash off the back of three consecutive victories in the competition, including a narrow 98–97 win over Magnolia Hotshots in their most recent fixture.
However, Yeng Guiao's men are in for a more difficult test against Meralco. They have dropped three of their last four meetings with the Bolts across all conferences. Four of their last seven games, dating back to last season, have ended in defeat.
Meanwhile, Meralco Bolts fell by nine points, losing 84–75 to previous conference's champions Barangay Ginebra on Friday. That result saw them drop to a 2–3 record across their five games in the competition.
Nevertheless, the Bolts enter this clash as favorites given their dominant recent record against Rain or Shine across all conferences. They have also won five of their last six Governors' Cup encounters with the Elasto Painters.

Our Rain Or Shine Elasto Painters vs Meralco Bolts Prediction
Meralco Bolts have been difficult opponents for Rain or Shine in the PBA recently and will look to build on that record to ace this clash despite their recent setbacks. They have also dominated the last six Governors' Cup encounters between the two sides, winning five.
While Rain or Shine have impressed in their recent outings, they are likely to face a far sterner against a Meralco side that has been dominating this fixture. Our Rain or Shine Elasto Painters vs Meralco Bolts prediction : Meralco Bolts wins.
