Stats

Chicago Cubs have won 23 and lost 38 matches all season.
Chicago Cubs haven’t won a game in their last 9 matches.
San Diego Padres have won 39 and lost 24 of their matches this season.

Chicago Cubs Form

The Chicago Cubs have been in extremely poor from recently. It’s been nine games since they last won a match and it doesn’t look like they’re going to change that in the upcoming game.

The two matches in the series ended with scores of 4-1 and 12-5 to the Padres.

Playing at home hasn’t provided any sort of consolation. They seem unrecognizable from the team that won two of their three games in the series against the Padres, earlier in the year.

They’ll need Patrick Wisdom to come good with the bat. He has hit 12 home runs, has 31 RBI and an average of .217. In the pitching department, Keegan Thompson has managed an ERA of 3.67, 1.24 WHIP in 14 starts, 39 strike outs and 18 walks.

San Diego Padres Form

The Padres have now got more wins on board than the Los Angeles Dodgers but have got one loss more than them, which means that they’re still in second place in the NL West Standings, one of the most competitive divisions in the league.

They’ve recently beaten the New York Mets and will be hoping to sweep up this series.

Manny Machado has been outstanding with the bat all season. He’s hit 10 home runs, has an RBI of 38, .322 average and .391 OBP. Joe Musgrove is expected to show up with the ball. He has an ERA of 1.50, 0.93 WHIP in 11 starts, 72 strikeouts and 16 walks.
