Dodgers at Giants picks and predictions

Prediction

Dodgers 6, Giants 3

Moneyline

As mentioned, the Giants are 4-1 during their homestand and 24-18 at home overall this season but are only 14-25 against teams with winning records like the Dodgers. They have not scored more than 5 runs in 10 straight games.

The Dodgers are 26-16 on the road and 10-6 in Glasnow's starts.

Glasnow has allowed only 2 runs in his last 14 innings and opponents have scored 2 or fewer runs in 4 of his last 5 outings.

The Dodgers should even the series but at -210, it isn't worth the action to bet them on the moneyline.

PASS. 

Run line/Against the spread

Nine of the Dodgers' 10 wins with Glasnow on the mound have been by at least 2 runs. Nine of their last 11 wins have been by more than 1 run. They are 22-19 ATS on the road.

The Giants have covered the spread only once in their last 25 losses.

BET DODGERS -1.5 (-120).

Over/Under

The Over has hit in 6 of the 7 games between the teams this season.

The Giants' last 5 losses have had 8 or more total runs.

Six of the Dodgers' last 10 games have had 8 or more total runs.

BET OVER 7.5 (+105).
