Cardinals Play Host to Their Bitter Rivals

The St. Louis Cardinals are hosting the Chicago Cubs on Thursday in their 6th meeting of the season, and their 2,493rd game of all-time. The Cardinals v Cubs rivalry goes back to 1892, and the Cubs lead the series, posting a 1261-1212 record over St. Louis. Their last series was across the pond in London, England where the Cubs won the opener 9-1 and the Cardinals won the encore matchup 7-5. It’s always an exciting matchup, as these two hate losing to each other, and are very evenly matched this season. 

It should be a close game, but I like the Cardinals in this one. The Cardinals win 43.8% of their games on the road, while the Cubs win 47.9% of their games at home, but St. Louis is 7-3 in their last 10, averaging 5.6 runs per game. The Cubs are 5-5 in their last 10 games, and averaged 6.2 runs per game, but overall, St. Louis has recorded more total runs and hits than Chicago.  

So for our Cubs vs. Cardinals expert pick, take the St. Louis Cardinals Moneyline on Thursday.
