Philadelphia Phillies vs New York Mets Prediction: The Phillies have to get back to their best

The Citizens Bank Pa🎶rk will host the quarter final second game of the 2024 MLB, between the Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets. Heading into this fixture, the Philadelphia Phillies are well-favored, while the New York Mets are underdogs. Let’s look into the analysis of this game and make predictions. 

Philadelphia Phillies

The Philadelphia Phillies will play in an MLB match for the first time in this year’s postseason. The Philadelphia Phillies won 95 games of their 162 in the regular season, finishing second in the National League standings. However, in their run of games into this quarterfinal game, the Philadelphia Phillies suffered a defeat to the Washington Nationals while losing three of their last five matches. 

New York Mets

The New York Mets had a strong performance against the Milwaukee Brewers and will have their hopes high in this quarterfinal game. In the wild card, the New York Mets opened the series with a 4-8 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. While the Brewers evened the series in game 2 with a 5-3 victory, a strong 2-4 win in the finale was enough to see this team booked their spot in this game. Heading into this game, the New York Mets have a 4-2 record but are underdogs.

Expert Betting Tips

I like the Philadelphia Phillies, but they did not end the regular season with the best performances, which has raised questions about how they will perform here. While the New York Mets secured a win in their last series against the Philadelphia Phillies in the last days of September, their confidence is expected to be high here. However, this is a crucial game for the two teams, and given that the Philadelphia Phillies are at home, I expect them to be at their best and show character in game 1.
