The Chicago Cubs and the Milwaukee Brewers are heading for a do-or-die Game 5 on Monday after the Cubs extended the series with a 6-0 win in Game 4.
The Cubs are +108 favorites on the road. But remember, they now have the momentum after winning the last two games of this NLDS.
Series Recap:
After absorbing heavy losses in Milwaukee, the Cubs flipped the script and started playing winning baseball at Wrigley Field. Chicago avoided a disastrous sweep in Game 3 after storming to a 4-1 start, and the bullpen stepped up big time in the elimination game. In Game 4, the Cubs flexed their might on both ends, blanking the Brewers through nine innings and blasting three homers to score six runs. Ian Happ sparked the offense with a three-run blast in the first inning, while Kyle Tucker and Michael Busch each cranked a solo homer.

Our Milwaukee Brewers vs Chicago Cubs Prediction
The Cubs and the Brewers have yet to announce their starting pitchers for Game 5. But since this is a do-or-die game, expect these teams to come up with different strategies to get even a tiny advantage over the other team. The Cubs have already started Freddie Peralta and used Aaron Ashby as a reliever in Game 4, so they will likely have a different approach for Game 5. Still, the Cubs could opt for Shoto Imanaga as their starter before unleashing Jameson Taillon and possibly Matthew Boyd in the later innings.
Fearless Forecast: The Cubs will squeak out a close win over the Brewers, 3-2, to set up a showdown with the Dodgers for the pennant title. The Cubs made a statement on Thursday after their dominant 6-0 win in Game 4. The Brewers, who have a well-documented series of choking in the postseason, are once again facing a familiar situation.
Our betting prediction for the Chicago Cubs vs. the Milwaukee Brewers: the Cubs will win.
