The Brewers are 7-5 in their last 12 meetings against the Reds, but both teams are tied 3-3 wins in their last 6 meetings in Milwaukee. Over is 4-2 in their last 6 meetings.
In this Reds vs Brewers Prediction, the Brewers are coming as -150 home favorites. If the Reds win, they are into the playoffs, not matter what, but they have to go through Freddy Peralta, who has been elite this season, and almost unhittable at home, with a 1.71 ERA. Singer has been weaker on the road for the Reds, with a 4.74 ERA, and has 3 earned runs in each of his two starts against the Brewers this season. I like the value with the home team in this matchup, so take the Milwaukee Brewers on the moneyline.
