Reds vs. Braves picks and predictions

Prediction

Braves 5, Reds 4

Money line

PASS.

Atlanta is a much better team and with Sale on the mound, I’m confident the Braves will win as -245 favorites. However, with the line set so heavily, the Braves aren’t worth the risk of betting on them. Bet on the run line and/or the total instead.

Racing Line/Against the Spread

BET ON RED +1.5 (-110).

The Reds have finished one point behind the Braves in each of their last 3 losses to the Braves in Atlanta. Cincinnati is also a very solid ATS team, going 56-45 this season.

Atlanta is also on a cold streak heading into this game, having lost 3 straight games and being just 4-6 in their last 10 games overall.

This bet is especially safe considering Atlanta has been bad ATS this season, going just 44-55 overall on the year and 21-29 at home.

More less

BET OVER 7.5 (-120).

The Over has been successful in 6 of the last 7 Cincinnati-Atlanta meetings and 7-3 in the last 10 meetings. The Over is 3-1 in the last 4 meetings in Atlanta. For Cincinnati, the Over is 7-3 in their last 10 outings.

Note that the Under is 6-4 in Atlanta’s last 10 games.
