New York Mets vs Washington Nationals Prediction: New Yorkers have been unstoppable lately

One of the best teams in the National League, the New York Mets, will play their next series at home against Washington. How will the first game of the encounter end? There are several betting options.

Before the divisional clash with Washington, the team hosted NL Central division rival Philadelphia and took all three games from the Phillies (8:6, 8:2, 5:4). The final match of the series requires special attention. The Mets survived with a score of 3:4 in the ninth inning to win in overtime. The Mets thus strengthened their lead in the division with a 32-17 balance. Only the Los Angeles Dodgers are ahead of the New York Mets in the National League standings.

Left-hander David Peterson will pitch for the Mets in their upcoming game against Washington, 2-0 and with a 2.16 ERA in five starts.

The Nationals are last in the NL Centre table. Dave Martinez's team is now 18-31 and, it is already clear, has no chance of fighting for the playoffs in this championship.

Washington played their last series at home against Colorado and beat the Rockies 3 games out of 4 (7:3, 13:7, 2:3, 6:5).

In the upcoming game, Eric Feddy will pitch for Washington, going 3-3 and with a 3.55 ERA in 9 starts.

Washington is conceding more than five runs per game on average, so Francisco Lindor, Pete Alonso and company will have plenty of chances to add home runs and RBI to their stats. The Mets have been unstoppable of late and are likely to pick up another win. Prediction: New York Mets will win.
