The World Series favorites take on one of the lowest ranked sides in the American League on Friday night, as the LA Dodgers visit the New York Mets at Citi Field.

The Dodgers are currently a whopping 11 games clear at the top of the NL West standings and, barring a catastrophic downturn in form, they look on course to win their fifth consecutive divisional title. A key reason for LA's success this season has been a superb road record, which has seen them win 35 of their 53 games away from Elysian Park.

In stark contrast to LA's excellent road record, the Mets have been dreadful at home for the majority of the season so far. New York's 21-28 record at Citi Field is a major reason why they are currently nine games adrift at the bottom of the NL table.

New York Mets - Los Angeles Dodgers Key Points

  1. LA have won their last 4 games against the Mets

  4. The Mets have won just 3 of their last 13 home fixtures

Our New York Mets vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction

This looks like a complete mismatch, and we expect the Dodgers to easily record yet another road victory. 

The gulf in class between the two sides has been clearly demonstrated in recent Mets-Dodgers matchups and, based on recent form, we cannot see anything changing this time around. 

As you would expect, the bookies make LA big favorites for the win. However, their moneyline odds of 1.60 are somewhat prohibitive, so instead, we are recommending that you take the longer odds of 2.02 on the road team winning by at least two runs. 

Our prediction for New York Mets vs LA Dodgers is: Dodgers (-1.5) to win. 

Prediction:

 

Dodgers (-1.5) to win
