Brewers vs Tigers Prediction
The current betting odds have the Tigers listed as a favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Tigers haven't looked great in their games this season with their 31-32 record overall and their 14-16 home record which has them in 4th place of the AL Central. Meanwhile, the Brewers have looked great in their games this season with their 37-26 record overall and their 19-16 road record. The Brewers already took the 1st game of this series with a 10-0 win and they have one of the best offenses in the MLB right now, which they showed in that game. They are coming off a series against the Phillies which their offense struggled in against some better starters, and that is what they are going to be facing in this one. As good as the Brewers have been on offense, the Tigers have Skubal on the mound here and he has been their ace this season. He is 7-1 with a 1.97 ERA this season so not only has he not been giving up many runs in his starts, but the team has also been winning the games he is starting in, winning their last 2 straight too. The Brewers have Wilson starting in this game and he has also been good with his 3-2 record and 3.35 ERA, but he gave up 3 earned runs in his last start and that will be trouble in this game where runs will be hard to find. The Tigers always bring their best effort for Skubal as they know he is their best shot to win a game so expect another great performance out of him on Sunday while the team backs him up with another home win. The best way to place a bet here is on the Tigers to win this game.
