Padres vs Brewers Prediction
The teams have traded victories in the past couple of years, each recording five in the last ten H2H encounters. It’s going to be a tight affair, and I am not sure who will end up victorious, but given the recent H2H duels, we should expect runs. Nine of the last ten H2H duels went Over, and I am backing another one here. Randy Vasquez and Chad Patrick have been solid this season, but Vasquez did allow multiple runs in each of his last three starts. Chad Patrick, on the other hand, surrendered multiple runs in seven of his previous nine starts. I am looking for 5+ runs in the opening five innings. Back the Over.
