Chicago Cubs - Tampa Bay Rays: MLB match betting tip and bets

Current form

Chicago today is like an orchestra where no one is out of tune. On September 11, they locked horns with the Atlanta Braves and squeezed out a 3-2 victory in a match that can be described in one word — a battle. Carson Kelly's home run tied the score and became the starting point for the denouement. Justin Turner and Shoya Suzuki added RBI, like solo parts in a common symphony. 

Jameson Tyone, who had just recovered from an injury, came out and worked 4 innings with the composure of a man who saw everything. Bullpen supported him flawlessly—the Braves never found any holes in the defense. Today, the Cubs have 83 wins with 63 losses, second place in the National League Central Division and a very tangible prospect of reaching the playoffs via wild card.

But Tampa Bay is now like a boxer who missed a couple of solid punches, but still keeps his feet. On September 11, they lost to the Chicago White Sox 1-5, and their attack, frankly, looked like a bus stuck in traffic. Shane Smith, the Sox pitcher, just didn't let them breathe, playing 5⅔ innings without conceding points. 

The only glimmer was a late takedown of the ball from Junior Caminero, but it was like a lonely chord in the silence. However, with a 72-74 record, the Reis are in fourth place in the American League East Division. The playoffs are almost over for them.

Interesting facts for betting

Tampa has an average of 2.7 runs per game.
