Philadelphia Phillies at New York Mets Preview & Picks

New York are tipped to regain the series lead with a home win.

The Mets have been on a dominant run at home in recent weeks and they have been firing offensively in the postseason.

  • New York Mets are 12-2 in their last 14 home games
  • Philadelphia Phillies are 3-9 in their previous 12 road games
  • The Over cashed in the first 2 games in this series
  • The Over has hity in 7 of the previous 10 meetings

Head To Head

  • Philadelphia Phillies won the regular season series 7-6
  • This MLB Playoff series is tied at 1-1
  • Philadelphia Phillies won 7-6 when the two teams last met on October 6

Philadelphia Phillies Form

Philadelphia head out on the road for the first time in this series looking to build on a Game 2 victory that knotted up the series at 1-1.

The Phillies opened their postseason campaign with a 6-2 defeat to the New York Mets, but rebounded to take Game 2, winning 7-6.

They booked their place in the playoffs by putting together a 95-67 record to finish top of the National League West.

Philadelphia’s 95 victories was the second best total in the regular season, just three behind the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Phillies missed out on a 100-win regular season campaign as they lost five of their final eight games.

New York Mets Form

New York return home after a successful two-game stay in Philadelphia that saw them go 1-1 to start this playoff series.

The Mets drew first blood as they took the series-opener 6-2, but they failed to follow that up as they lost the second meeting, 7-6.

They earned their place in the playoffs by compiling an 89-73 record to finish second in the National League East standings.

New York’s ‘reward’ was a Wild Card series in Milwaukee, and they were able to dump out the Brewers in three games.

The Mets won the opening game of the series 8-4, and then bounced back from a 5-3 defeat with a 4-2 victory that secured their place in the Division Series.

Verdict

New York have been stacking up wins at home for weeks, while Philadelphia's road form has been underwhelming, so we like the Mets as home underdogs.
