Losers in 3 of their last 4 games, the Los Angeles Dodgers look to stop the bleeding as they host the hapless Pittsburgh Pirates for a three-game weekend series starting on Friday at Dodger Stadium.
The Dodgers dropped to third in the NL West standings after losing three of their last four games, including back-to-back losses to the Chicago Cubs this week. Los Angeles’ pitching faltered miserably against the Cubs’ batting corps, allowing a total of 18 runs in a two-game series.
The Pirates took two out of three games against the Los Angeles Angels this week. Pittsburgh has lowered their ERA to 3.86 after coming through with terrific pitching against the Angels in their series. The Pirates enter the series with the Dodgers sitting at No.5 in the National League Central standings with a 10-16 record.

Our Los Angeles Dodgers vs Pittsburgh Pirates Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Dodgers squeaked past the Pirates in a low-scoring ballgame.
There’s a big reason why the UNDER is trending ahead of this matchup between the Dodgers and Pirates. Both teams will be dispatching their best hurlers in this game, with Los Angeles fielding Yoshinobu Yamamoto (4-1, 0.93 ERA) and Pittsburgh unleashing Paul Skenes (2-3, 2.87 ERA). Anything can happen in a low-scoring encounter. However, with the LA Dodgers being 5-0 SU in their last 5 games when playing at home against Pittsburgh, there’s an incentive to bet on the Dodgers to cover -1.5 runs at +110. The Dodgers have beaten the Pirates by at least two runs in 4 of those 5 wins at home. Moreover, Los Angeles also covered -1.5 spread in Yamamoto’s last two starts. Our betting prediction for Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Pittsburgh Pirates: Dodgers -1.5 Runs.
