The Chicago White Sox will be aiming to maintain their narrow two game lead at the top of the AL Central table, by defeating the Pittsburgh Pirates at Rate Field on Tuesday night.
It has been a disappointing September for Chicago, as despite a resounding 10-1 win over the Twins last time out, they have lost four of seven games so far this month. The saving grace for the White Sox is that their nearest rivals, the Cleveland Guardians, have also endured mixed results in recent weeks, so have failed to take advantage of Chicago's slip-ups.
As for the Pirates, they have been in solid form recently, despite being effectively out of postseason contention. A narrow 1-0 victory over the Angels last time out means Pittsburgh have now won six of their last eight games. So whilst the Pirates will have little to play for at Rate Field, they look more than capable of putting a big dent in the White Sox's postseason aspirations.

Our Chicago White Sox vs Pittsburgh Pirates Prediction
Pittsburgh are arguably playing their best ball of the season, so despite the fact that they have little on the line this week, we are tipping them to cause an upset and put a big dent in Chicago's AL Central title hopes.
Notwithstanding the 10-1 victory over a poor Twins outfit, Chicago have found runs hard to come by in recent weeks. So whilst Pittsburgh starting pitcher Bubba Chandler does not have the best stat line for the season, he has shown flashes of form in recent weeks, so we are backing him to keep the White Sox quiet and record his seventh win of the campaign.
Our prediction for Chicago White Sox vs Pittsburgh Pirates is: Pirates to win.
