All eyes will be on Citizens Bank Park this Friday night, as the Phillies host the Braves in one of the biggest MLB matchups of the season.
The fixture is the first contest of a four game series that will go a long way towards determining which side finishes the campaign as NL East champions.
The Braves currently hold a four game advantage over the Phillies, but Philadelphia have been on fire in recent weeks and have now won 15 of their last 18 games. That impressive run includes seven consecutive home victories, thanks to clean sweeps over both the Marlins and the Cardinals.
Atlanta also come into the series in excellent form, having won eight of their last ten fixtures. However, they have been defeated by the Nationals and Giants this week, and both games showed signs of frailty from the Braves, especially on defence.

Our Philadelphia Phillies vs Atlanta Braves Prediction
This looks set to be an extremely tight matchup between two of the best teams in the National League, so picking a winner is an extremely tough task.
Because of that, we are steering clear of any moneyline bets and instead casting our eye over the run line.
Recent contests between the Braves and Phillies have been high scoring affairs, and given the quality of the batters on show at Citizens Bank Park, we are expecting more of the same on Friday night.
Our prediction for Philadelphia Phillies vs Atlanta Braves is: Over 7.5 runs.
