Most sports fans and bettors will be locked into the second round of the Open Championship on Friday afternoon.
In fact, there’s not much else on this afternoon’s sports schedule, either.
But if you’re not all that interested in golf, or looking to diversify from your Open Championship sweats today, the MLB odds board does include St. Louis Cardinals vs. Chicago Cubs at 2:20 p.m. ET.
Cardinals vs. Cubs does match one of our PRO betting systems as well, so there does appear to be value in this matchup.
Let’s take a look.
Cardinals vs Cubs Prediction
The winds at Wrigley Field are expected to be blowing directly in from center field at seven mph throughout today’s game, which will make scoring a bit more difficult.
Clearly, breezes pushing toward home plate can knock down potential home runs to long fly-ball outs, negatively impacting scoring.
These weather conditions also make Friday’s Cardinals vs. Cubs game a match for the Action Network’s Wrigley Field Unders PRO Betting System.
With winds of at least five mph blowing in at Wrigley, this strategy has produced a 268-179-24 (60%) record dating back to the start of the 2005 season.
This under is listed at under 8.5 and a vig of -115 at essentially every sportsbook as of the time of writing, but it’s still worth taking a quick look at our MLB Live Odds Page just in case there’s a better price out there before this game gets underway.
PRO Report Pick: Under 8.5 (-115)
