Team Recent Performance

Philadelphia Phillies

It has been a somewhat confusing 2-3 for the Philadelphia Phillies these past five games against various spread indications. They did not meet the -1.5 line in three losses, e.g., 6-2 against the White Sox and 4-3 against the Yankees. Offensively, they also displayed power in their two dominant victories over New York, 9-4 and 12-5. Totals went OVER for the two but UNDER for 3 of 5, showing bursts of offense but also some tighter games in between.

Chicago White Sox

Out of the five such games, they covered the run line in four, thus establishing good value as an underdog. A couple of primary attractions have been their 6-2 whipping of the Phillies on July 28, and a couple of weeks prior, when they put up 12 on the Cubs and only allowed 5 on July 25. Offensively, they have been exploding, with the OVER occurring in three of their last five competings, including that wild 11-9 victory over the Rays on July 23. The recent action indicates lots of competitive play and high scoring.

Team Head-to-Head Matchup

Philadelphia is at the batting advantage over the White Sox. The Phillies score an average of 4.90 runs per game, whereas the White Sox manage only 3.80, which, when supported by hitting more consistently (8.5 hits per game versus 6.8) and better plate discipline (3.9 walks per game against 2.4), really puts off the White Sox. Strikeouts are nearly even, sitting around 9 per game. In fact, both teams are tipping the scales with an identical over/under record of 4-5-1 in their last 10 games, making us suggest that total has been evenly matched, and surely, statistics seem to favor Phillies’ bats over the aforementioned numbers.

Betting Trends

Philadelphia Phillies

Philadelphia has shown inconsistent play against the spread as of late, only winning 2 out of their last five games. Away from home, Philadelphia has been truly even at 27 ATS and 27 straight up on the season, indicating that the team is inconsistent and better at Citizen Bank Park. A little bit of an offensive leaning, it’s only gone OVER in 3 of the Phillies’ last 5 games. That trend continues at home since 26 of the last 52 home games have hit the OVER, underscoring a team that can score odd runs but not always as a reliable betting indicator that goes above and beyond.

Chicago White Sox

Heavy trends with the Chicago White Sox show promises to bettors, especially against the spread. In their last five games, they went 4-1 ATS to add to a strong 31-22 road record against the number. Thus making them viable underdog or road challengers. Offensively, they have also been leaning toward high-scoring affairs; three of their last five contests have gone OVER. At home, OVER has hit 28 times in their last 54 games, strengthening the case for exceeding projected run totals-even more in hitter-friendly matchups.
