Dodgers vs Red Sox Prediction

The Dodgers won eight of the previous ten H2H encounters, including five of the last six. Even though Game 1 and Game 2 went Under, I am going with Over in this one because seven of the past ten H2Hs went Over, and there is a pitching matchup. Dustin May and Walker Buehler are having the worst seasons in their respective careers, and we can say that both are struggling. May allowed multiple runs in each of his last eight starts, and I am pretty sure the Red Sox will not have problems scoring a few runs early on. Buehler, on the other hand, did improve in July after a disastrous June, but he did surrender multiple runs in nine of his previous ten starts. This will be his first start against his former team, and I don’t think he will have a great time. Go wth Over.
