It doesn’t take long for the Atlanta Braves vs. Chicago Cubs matchup to jump off of Sunday’s MLB odds board.
Specifically, the Braves are short road favorites against the Cubs this afternoon, but the over/under is the more interesting betting prediction compared to the moneyline.
In fact, Braves vs. Cubs fits a historically-profitable PRO betting system that could very well be impacting MLB odds movement to this point.
With this in mind, let’s go ahead and examine the MLB betting prediction that’s moving Braves vs. Cubs odds on Sunday afternoon.
MLB Prediction for Braves vs. Cubs
Sunday’s Braves vs. Cubs total initially hit the market at 9.5, but savvy bettors have already pounded it down to 8.5 thanks to the latest weather forecast for Wrigley Field.
The updated forecast is calling for 10-11 mph winds blowing in from left-center field throughout today’s game, which could certainly result in lower-than expected scoring.
Strong breezes in this direction can turn potential home runs into long fly-ball outs, so it’s no surprise to see the Braves vs. Cubs total dropping a full run since open.
As a result, today’s game in Chicago is a match for the Action Network’s Wrigley Field Unders PRO System, which has produced a 265-178-23 (60%) win rate dating back to the start of the 2005 MLB season.
And in case you were wondering, yes, that system record is based on closing totals as well.
