Head To Head

  • This is the first series between the two teams this season

Atlanta Braves Form

Atlanta head to Los Angeles looking to build some momentum after Wednesday night’s win in Seattle.

The Braves enjoyed a six-game win streak in mid-April that saw them follow up a win in Miami with a series sweep of Houston and back-to-back home wins over Texas.

They missed out on the sweep of the Rangers, losing the final meeting 6-4, but they rebounded in a three game series against Miami, winning 3-0, 5-0 and 4-3.

Atlanta then won two of their three home games against Cleveland, sandwiching a 4-2 defeat with 6-2 and 4-3 victories.

The Braves went back out on the road after that and dropped back-to-back games in Seattle, 2-1 and 3-2, before winning the last meeting 5-2.

Los Angeles Dodgers Form

Los Angeles return home having won eight of their last 10 games, but having gone 2-2 in the last four.

The Dodgers rallied from a three-game skid with a 10-0 shutout win at home to the New York Mets.

They then built on that in Washington as they swept the Nationals in a three-game series, winning 4-1, 11-2 and 2-1.

Los Angeles took the first two games in Toronto after that, 12-2 and 4-2, but a 3-1 loss to the Blue Jays sparked this dip in form.

The Dodgers responded to that defeat with an 8-4 win in Arizona, and then rebounded from a 4-3 defeat to the Diamondbacks with an 8-0 shutout success.

Verdict

Both teams have been hitting and scoring consistently this season, meaning the Over is in play in tonight's matchup.
