Brewers vs. Cubs Prediction, Odds & Best Bets: Believe in Boyd Against MLB’s Best Team
After the second game of Monday’s doubleheader was postponed, the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs will begin Tuesday’s twin bill at 2:20 p.m. ET at Wrigley Field on MLB Network.
The Brewers won the NL Central clash yesterday, improving to 15-1 in August. Yet Chicago is a -140 betting favorite, and my Brewers vs. Cubs prediction thinks the home side can get it done. My Brewers vs. Cubs best bets believe the Cubs' starting pitcher will be key to the home side's success.

It would be tempting to back MLB’s hottest and best team at plus-money odds for our Brewers vs. Cubs prediction. But that’s not where the betting value lies in this game.
Ballpark Pal gives the Cubs a 64% chance of victory, suggesting a fair price of -178. Bettors can get a -140 value to back Chicago at BetMGM, Caesars, and bet365 as of Tuesday morning, and I’d play this Brewers vs. Cubs best bet at -145 or better.
The thesis for fading Milwaukee stems from my belief in Chicago left-hander Matthew Boyd. He is 11-6 with a 2.46 ERA this season, holding an opponent to two runs or fewer in 13 of his previous 14 starts.
The lone exception was when he surrendered five runs in a loss to the Brewers on July 28. I expect Boyd to get his revenge on Tuesday.

You can save five cents further by shopping this Brewers vs. Cubs player prop at ESPN BET if you're in a market where that's available, but I’m willing to play this line at -160 or better. THE BAT X projects Boyd to allow 4.55 hits, suggesting plenty of value on this Under.
Boyd has allowed more than five hits in two of his previous 11 starts, dating back to mid-June. He’s holding opposing teams to a beating average of .225, well below his career mark of .252.
