Los Angeles Dodgers vs Milwaukee Brewers Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 7/20/25, 12:31 PM  by Erik Gibbs | Modified on 7/20/25 at 7:05 PM in MLB Picks

The Milwaukee Brewers and Los Angeles Dodgers close out their three-game series today at Dodger Stadium, with the Brewers looking to complete a second consecutive sweep against the reigning World Series champions. Milwaukee has taken the first two games of this set, extending their dominance over Los Angeles in recent matchups. The Brewers have now won seven of their last ten meetings with the Dodgers, including a sweep when the two clubs faced off earlier this month.

Milwaukee’s recent success is part of a broader turnaround that began in June, when they posted a 16-9 record after a sluggish start to the season. Now, the Brewers find themselves just one game behind the Chicago Cubs in the tightly contested National League Central.

Despite recent regular season consistency, the franchise is still chasing postseason redemption. Since 2019, Milwaukee holds a disappointing 2-10 playoff record — a stat that lingers over them as they push toward another October run.

On the other side, the Dodgers continue to defend their World Series title with confidence. Even after dropping the first two games of this series, Los Angeles maintains a 4.5-game cushion over the San Diego Padres in the National League West.

However, the team's offensive struggles over the past two weeks are becoming harder to overlook. Over their last 10 games, the Dodgers are averaging just 2.3 runs per contest — a significant dip for a team known for explosive firepower.
