Chicago Cubs (78-61) and Milwaukee Brewers (86-53) will clash in Game 3 of this four-game series on Wednesday night. The Brewers recovered from a humiliating 17-3 opening day defeat to win 9-4 on Tuesday night. With five more games to be played between these two sides, the Brewers will be confident that another win tonight will take them closer to taking the series. Yesterday’s performance shows why their pitching has been the backbone of the team this season.
Chicago Cubs, meanwhile, rely more on explosive hitting, which didn’t quite work last night. But despite the defeat, they remain firmly in the wild-card race in the National League. The defeat saw the Cubs drop eight games behind the Brewers in the NL Central, although they have a nine-game cushion over the third-placed Cardinals. They’ll be keen to bounce back tonight, especially after blowing a 3-0 lead yesterday. The Cubs are the exciting +125 betting underdogs.

Our Chicago Cubs vs Milwaukee Brewers Prediction
The Brewers are the betting favorites because they’ve been the more consistent side this season. They’re 3-1 over their last four away matches and have a solid 39-28 away record this season. However, we cannot fully trust them to win after the Monday night pounding by the Cubs. The hosts have looked good on offense lately, scoring over 3.5 runs in 10 of their last 11 matches. Our only worry is their inconsistent starting pitcher, David Peterson, who is 7-7 this season with a 5.11 ERA. He could struggle tonight if he doesn’t contain the traditional early onslaught from the visitors. The Brewers will start Jacob Misiorowski, who is 14-5 with a 1.73 ERA. He definitely gives the Brewers an upper hand in this contest.
Our prediction for Chicago Cubs vs Milwaukee Brewers: Over 7.5 runs to hit.
