The race for a National League playoff spot is going right down to the wire. The final two weeks of the season are full of pivotal matchups, including the Philadelphia Phillies' Friday night clash with the New York Mets. 

The Phillies recorded a comfortable 0-3 victory in Thursday's series opener, but they will go into Friday's clash without regular starter Jesus Luzardo (shoulder inflammation) on the mound. Philly are keeping their cards close to their chest regarding who will start in place of Luzardo, but it is highly likely to be a member of their bullpen. 

The good news for Philly is that regardless of who starts on the mound, they will be coming up against a Mets side enduring a wretched run of form. Thursday night's defeat means that the Mets have now lost five games in a row and have dropped to .454 for the season.

Our New York Mets vs Philadelphia Phillies Prediction

Despite the Phillies' problems on the mound, we are still tipping them to secure a vital victory on Friday night. 

The Mets look completely devoid of form and confidence at present, especially with the bat. So regardless of who gets the start for the Phillies, we think they will be able to successfully restrict the hosts. 

Philadelphia have not been at their very best with the bat in recent games, but they are stacked with top tier hitters and should have more than enough firepower to put up runs against an ailing Mets side. 

Our prediction for New York Mets vs Philadelphia Phillies is: Phillies to win.
