In this article, we will formulate a Brewers vs Cubs Prediction for this MLB matchup on Wednesday, September 2 nd in the third game of this series. Let’s take a look at the prediction for this MLB matchup.
The Chicago Cubs have a 78-61 record this season and are sitting in 2nd place of the NL Central. They have a 40-30 home record and are coming off a 4-9 home loss against the Brewers. They will face the Marlins and the Brewers next.
The Chicago Cubs have a .252 batting average this season, .340 OBP, and .433 slugging percentage. Chicago’s pitching staff has a 4.17 ERA and 1.26 WHIP. Pete Crow-Armstrong is the Cubs’ best hitter with a .280 batting average, while leading the team in RBI with 91, adding a team-high 38 home runs.
David Peterson (L) is the projected starting pitcher for the Cubs, with a 7-7 record, 5.11 ERA, and 1.52 WHIP.
The Milwaukee Brewers have an 86-53 record this season and are sitting in 1st place of the NL Central. They have a 39-28 road record and are coming off a 9-4 road win against the Cubs. They will face the Reds and the Cubs next.

Jackson Chourio is the Brewers’ best hitter with a .282 batting average. Brice Turang leads the team in RBI with 78, while Jake Bauers adds a team-high 23 home runs.
Jacob Misiorowski (R) is the projected starting pitcher for the Brewers, with a 14-5 record, 1.73 ERA, and 0.75 WHIP.
The Brewers are 6-3 in their last 9 meetings against the Cubs and are 4-1 in their last 5 visits in Chicago.
In this Brewers vs Cubs Prediction, the Brewers are coming as -155 road favorites. I like the Brewers to keep rolling in this one with the best pitcher in baseball on the mound in Jacob Misiorowski. David Peterson has been good for the Cubs lately but still sits on a 2-4 record and 6.16 ERA at home this season and the Cubs also have a weaker bullpen. The Brewers have been in good form with a 5-2 record in their last 7 games, while the Cubs are 2-5 in their last 7, so give me the Brewers with the Mizz on the mound in this one.
