BETTING TRENDS
The total has gone OVER in 5 of Philadelphia's last 5 games on the road.
Philadelphia are 1-6 SU in their last 7 games when playing on the road against Atlanta.
The total has gone OVER in 4 of Atlanta's last 6 games.
The total has gone OVER in 5 of Atlanta's last 5 games at home.
Prediction
The Phillies offense continue to stay hot as they have averaged 5 runs per game in their last 4 games. The Braves will look to win this game with the help of Charlie Morton who has dominated the Phillies in his last 3 starts. Ranger Suarez has been shaky so I'll take the Braves to win this game.
