The three game series between the San Diego Padres and Chicago Cubs begins in San Diego on Monday night, with the Cubs hoping to continue their solid start to the season. They come into the game with a 6-3 record, with all of those victories coming in their last 7 games. The Padres have been less consistent but sit in second place in the NL West with a 5-7 overall record. Given the relatively low expectations for them this season, they will be satisfied with their start to the season, but looking for improvements in the weeks to come. 

The two sides last met in June 2023, with the Padres easing to a comfortable 5-0 victory. However, the Cubs hold the overall head to head edge. They currently have 280 wins, compared to the 232 for the Padres.

Our Chicago Cubs vs San Diego Padres Prediction

There's very little to choose between the two sides, but the bookies have San Diego as strong favourites to claim the win. But whilst we can see the logic in that due to the strength of their roster and home advantage, we think the Cubs represent excellent value as underdogs. They are in excellent form and have recorded a string of impressive wins over the last two weeks. As such, we think they can cause a minor upset here and continue their strong start to the campaign. Our prediction for Padres vs Cubs is: Cubs to win, 2.16 at FanDuel.
