Kansas City Royals at Atlanta Braves Preview & Picks

Atlanta are tipped to cover as they draw first blood in the series.

The Braves are in good form and will be rested, unlike Kansas City who head to the ATL having played in Washington just last night.

  • Atlanta Braves are 5-1 in their previous 6 games
  • Kansas City Royals are 3-7 in their last 10 games
  • Atlanta Braves are 4-0-0 ATL in the last 4 meetings with Kansas City
  • The Over has cashed in 4 of the last 5 meetings (1 push)

Head To Head

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

Kansas City Royals Form

Kansas City enter this series having rebounded from a seven-game losing skid with a three-game sweep of Washington.

The Royals’ miserable run began with a 4-3 defeat in Pittsburgh that prevented them from completing a sweep of the Pirates.

They then returned home for a three-game series with Detroit and suffered 7-6, 3-1 and 4-2 defeats at the hands of the Tigers.

Kansas City were swept at home in their next series too, as they were beaten 2-1, 9-0 and 2-0 by San Francisco.

The Royals did rebound in Washington however, as they won all three meetings with the Nationals, 1-0, 3-0 and 7-4.

Atlanta Braves Form

Atlanta enter this series riding a three-game win streak and having won five of their last six games.

The Braves began the second half of September with back-to-back home defeats to the Los Angeles Dodgers, losing 9-2 and 0-9 to split a four-game series.

They then made a losing start to the series in Cincinnati, but rebounded from the 6-5 defeat to the Reds with 7-1 and 15-3 victories.

Atlanta lost the series-opener in Miami too, but again they responded well to a defeat as they bounced back from a 4-3 loss with 6-2 and 5-4 wins.

The Braves then made it three-in-a-row with a 5-1 victory in a one-off meeting with the New York Mets.

Verdict

Atlanta are in good form and have dominated Kansas CIty over the past 18 months, so we expect the Braves to cover as they take this one.
