Chicago Cubs at St Louis Cardinals Preview & Picks
St Louis are tipped to win the opening game of this series.
Both starting pitchers enter this game on the back of strong performances last time out, but it is the Cardinals who are the more in-form team heading into this matchup.

- Chicago Cubs are 6-7 in their previous 13 games
- The 2 starting pitchers have a combined ERA of 9.65

- Chicago Cubs won 6-2 when the two teams last met in August 2024
Chicago Cubs Form
Chicago head out on the road on a rough run of form, having been on an inconsistent run over the past couple of weeks.
The Cubs enjoyed a winning homecoming after a long road trip, beating Pittsburgh 3-2, but they failed to back that up as they lost the next meeting 2-1.
They rallied to take the next two games in the series though, beating the Pirates 2-1 and 3-2, and they then made it three-in-a-row as they downed Milwaukee, 5-4.
Chicago were unable to maintain that momentum however, losing the second game against the Brewers, 8-7.
The Cubs then hosted Seattle and sandwiched a 10-7 victory with 9-4 and 14-6 defeats to the Mariners.
St Louis Cardinals Form
St Louis enter this series on the back of a defeat, but on a good run of form with six wins in their last eight games.
The Cardinals endured a bad run earlier this month as they lost six straight games, before finally stopping the rot with an 8-5 win in Milwaukee.
They failed to follow that up as they lost the next meeting with the Brewers, 3-2, although they did rally on the road to wrap up that trip in positive form.
St Louis travelled to Chicago where they were able to sweep the White Sox, winning 12-2, 5-4 and 7-6.
The Cardinals then won back-to-back home games against Cincinnati, 6-1 and 6-5, before dropping the series finale to the Reds, 4-1.
Verdict
St Louis have been on a good run over the past several days and starter Matthew Liberatore was solid last time out.
Liberatore has a decent record at home this season too, so give us the Cardinals in a pick ‘em.
