San Diego Padres Form

San Diego enter this series on a superb run of form, having now won nine of their previous 11 games.

The Padres started this good sequence in Seattle as they won the series opener against the Mariners, 7-3.

They dropped the next meeting 5-2, but rebounded in San Francisco as they swept the Giants with 5-0, 8-0 and 4-3 victories.

San Diego then returned home for a successful series against Houston that saw them sandwich a 4-3 defeat to the Astros with 3-1 and 4-0 wins.

The Padres then played host to the Chicago White Sox in three-game series, and they were able to sweep the visitors thanks to 3-2, 6-2 and 4-2 victories.

Los Angeles Dodgers Form

Los Angeles come into this series on a solid run of form, having won six of their previous eight games to rebound from a rough spell earlier this month.

The Dodgers lost four times in a five-game spell, suffering back-to-back defeats to Chicago and Atlanta either side of a 10-8 win over the Cubs.

They started the turnaround against the Braves though, recording 9-2 and 9-0 victories to split that four-game series.

Los Angeles then rebounded from an 11-9 defeat in Miami with 8-4 and 20-4 victories over the Marlins.

The Dodgers returned home after that and won 6-4 and 6-5 either side of a 6-3 defeat to the Rockies.

Verdict

San Diego are in good form and have repeatedly got the better of Los Angeles this season.

Starter Michael King has done a solid job at the mound too, so the Padres make for appealing underdogs.
