The Boston Red Sox will put their 10-game win streak on the line in Friday’s series opener against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field.
The Red Sox are surging in the AL East, winning their last 10 games to move three games within the No.1 team in their division, the 53-45 Toronto Blue Jays. Boston is getting the job done with the combination of near-unhittable pitching and explosive offense. Over the last 10 games, the Red Sox are batting .299 with 7.6 runs per game and pitching a 1.90 ERA.
The Cubs ended the first half of their schedule with two crucial wins over the New York Yankees after suffering a 0-11 beatdown in Game 1 of that series. Chicago remains at No.1 in the NL Central with a 57-39 record, but they must start winning games consistently because the 56-40 Brewers are catching up quickly. Chicago went 3-2 in their last five games, batting .237 with a 3.8 runs per game and pitching a 3.98 ERA.

Our Boston Red Sox vs Chicago Cubs Prediction
Why should you pick the Red Sox to win? Again, the Red Sox are smoking hot right now with their 10-game win streak. On Friday, Boston will count on Lucas Giolito to extend their winning run. Giolito is 4-1 with a 0.83 ERA in his last five starts.
This will be the first time in three years that Giolito will be pitching the Cubs, though there’s a high chance he will continue to pitch well against Chicago, who are only averaging 3.9 runs in their last five games against right-handed pitchers.
Our betting prediction for the Boston Red Sox vs. the Chicago Cubs: the Red Sox will win.
