The San Diego Padres battle the Houston Astros in a game that presents plenty of playoff complications for both teams. The Padres aim to prolong their win streak to four games after sweeping the San Francis Giants in the previous series. San Diego is performing decently at the plate in their past five games, scoring 5.1 runs per game on a .269 batting average. However, it is from the mound where they have dealt most of the damage as they have logged a 1.60 ERA during this five-game stretch. The Astros are also on a four-game winning streak, capped by a 3-0 sweep of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim over the weekend. Houston is also batting well, with 5.3 runs per game and a.294 batting average. They have also kept their ERA above league averages at 3.60 ERA.

Our San Diego Padres vs Houston Astros Prediction

Both are looking to strengthen their position in the standings, and the Padres and the Astros will treat this as a must-win game. Still, I would place my money on the Astros with Spencer Arrighetti starting on Monday. Arrighetti is fresh off a solid start against Oakland, allowing two earned runs and striking out seven in 6.2 innings. The Astros lost in that game but it was still a strong showing from Arrighetti, who holds a 3.04 ERA in his last five starts. The Padres, who won six of their last 10 meetings with the Astros, will start Yu Darvish who surrendered four earned runs in his last three games against the Astros. In addition, the Astros have beaten the Padres convincingly 12-2 and 7-5 in their last two meetings. Our betting prediction for Houston Astros vs. San Diego Padres: Back the Astros to win, +100, at BetMGM.
