Chicago Cubs (51-58) will play St. Louis Cardinals (55-52) on Friday in the second game of this thrilling NL Central clash. The Cardinals are second, 6.0 games behind the Brewers. However, they have flattered to deceive after the All-Star break, with the 2-1 series loss to the Pirates, who are also 6.0 games off the top, proving costly. The Cubs, on the other hand, are at the bottom of the standings, 11.0 games behind the Brewers. They lost two back-to-back series after the break before picking up a 2-1 win over the Royals. However, they failed to build on that win after dropping the first two games against the Reds. They are averaging 2.6 runs per game since the break, which isn’t encouraging.

Our Chicago Cubs vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction

Chicago Cubs will come into this series looking for a win and salvage something from a less impressive season. However, that could be a tough climb, considering the Cardinals have everything to play for. St. Louis can still dream of taking over the division, and the Pirates are chasing them down in third place. Despite sitting 27th in runs scored this season and 19th in team ERA, they have still found ways to win. This could be the season they end their two years without playoff action. Our prediction for Chicago Cubs vs St. Louis Cardinals: St. Louis Cardinals to win.

Prediction:

 

St. Louis Cardinals to win.
