forecast

Washington Capitals 1, Pittsburgh Penguins 1

Money line

HAPPEN.

The Padres (-350) are once again the clear favorite in this game, so much so that there is no moneyline bet. The White Sox will probably not be able to avoid a sweep here.

Running Line/Against the Spread

BET PADRES -2.5 (+110).

The Padres have been winning with ease lately, winning a series against the Astros 2-1 Monday through Wednesday and sweeping the San Francisco Giants in three games from Sept. 13-15.

The White Sox have lost 2 of their last 4 games by more than 2 runs. Chicago has scored a total of 7 runs in their last 4 games and will face a strong starting option in Darvish. Expect the Padres to win again by a sizable margin and PADRAS -2.5 (+110).

Over/Under

Bet under 7.5 (+100).

The White Sox have not been able to score consistently lately and have scored under in 3 of their last 4 games. They are 0-3-1 O/U in that stretch. On the season they are 66-80 O/U. Chicago is 3-8-1 O/U in their last 12 games.

The Padres have been under-scored in 5 of their last 6 games (0-5-1 O/U) and have allowed just 4 runs in their last 3 games.

Take UNDER 7.5 (+100).
