The Arizona Diamondbacks will go for their 50th win of the season in Friday’s series opener with the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. The Diamondbacks are on a roll this July, winning 8 of the 13 games this month. During this stretch, the D-Backs are batting .275 with 88 runs and posting a solid 4.02 ERA. Arizona (49-48) has now overtaken the San Diego Padres (50-49) for the No.2 spot in the NL West and is trailing the Los Angeles Dodgers (56-41) by seven games. The Cubs, on the other hand, collected eight wins from their last 11 games. Chicago has gone 8-5 this July, batting .279 with 68 runs while smothering opponents to a 2.58 ERA. The Cubs (57-41) remain last in the NL Central but they are just four games behind the second-place St. Louis Cardinals (50-46) and 8.5 games below the division-leading Milwaukee Brewers (55-42).

Pitchers Matchup: Diamondbacks RHP Ryne Nelson (6-6, 4.98 ERA with 59 strikeouts) vs. Cubs LHP Justin Steele (2-3. 2.71 ERA with 81 strikeouts).

Our Chicago Cubs vs Arizona Diamondbacks Prediction

The Diamondbacks are 10-4 in their last 14 games and 7-3 in their last 10 games against Chicago Cubs. I am also high on the D-Backs covering that -1.5-run spread since three of their last four wins over the Cubs were decided by at least two runs. Moreover, Arizona has won over Chicago by four runs in Ryne Nelson’s last two starts against the Cubs. Our betting prediction for Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Chicago Cubs: Bet on the Diamondbacks to cover -1.5 runs, +162, at FanDuel.
