Atlanta Braves Form
Atlanta entered this series on the back of a defeat, but in solid form having won six of their previous eight games.
The Braves started the second half of August with a 3-2 defeat at the Los Angeles Angels, but they rebounded to take the next two meetings, 11-3 and 3-1.
They then made it three-in-a-row when they returned home to beat Philadelphia in the series-opener, 3-1.
Atlanta dropped the second meeting with the Phillies, 3-2, only to rebound immediately with a 3-2 victory of their own in the series finale.
The Braves then made it three-in-a-row as they won the first two games against Washington, 3-2 and 4-2, but they missed out on the series sweep as they dropped the final game, 5-1.
Minnesota Twins Form
Minnesota came into this series on a rough run of form, having been beaten in five of their previous seven games.
The Twins enjoyed a good run in mid-August as they won five times during a six-game spell, but their form cooled off after they lost the series finale in Texas.
They had won the first three meetings with the Rangers, 3-2, 4-3 and 5-2, but missed out on the sweep as they lost the fourth game, 6-5.
Minnesota then travelled to San Diego where they suffered 5-3 and 7-5 defeats, before avoiding being swept thanks to an 11-4 win.
The Twins failed to build on that win however, as they lost 6-1 and 3-2 either side of a 6-0 victory.
Verdict
Atlanta are stacking up wins while Minnesota's form has collapsed in recent weeks.
The Braves also have the much better starting pitcher in this one, so we expect them to complete a series sweep of the Twins.
