Mets vs Marlins Prediction
The Marlins have won their last three meetings against the Mets and have also won their last three meetings in Miami.
In this Mets vs Marlins Prediction, the Marlins are coming as -110 home favorites. I like the Marlins at home in this one with Eury Perez on the mound, who has been excellent at home with a 2.81 ERA. The Marlins have been very strong at home and have been far better than the Mets against righties in their last 10 games, averaging 6 runs per game and they also have a better bullpen ERA in their last 5 games. Take the Marlins to win this one at home.
