Our Milwaukee Brewers vs Cleveland Guardians Prediction

The Brewers are the small favorite in this game; however, the over looks to be the best betting option. Game 1 of this series was a pitchers’ duel, but the starting pitchers for Game 2 suggest more offense is likely. 

Williams has made a total of seven away starts this season, having allowed 19 earned runs over 42.1 innings. Sproat, on the other hand, has made six appearances (five starts) at home, having allowed 19 earned runs over 27.0 innings. Therefore, considering that both pitchers have struggled on the road and at home respectively, our Milwaukee Brewers vs Cleveland Guardians prediction is: Over 7.5 Total Runs.
