Atlanta Braves 5.0 · Chicago Cubs 4.1

Three things to watch
- Form gap. Chicago Cubs is 80% over their recent sample; Atlanta Braves is 60%. Streaky teams tend to carry one more game than the math allows for.
- Net efficiency. Atlanta Braves projects 71% from points-for vs points-allowed; Chicago Cubs sits at 61%.
Formula: expected win rate from points-for vs. points-allowed (anchored), scoring margin, recent form, and home/venue edge, adjusted by league volatility. Refreshes whenever the venue/game workflow republishes game pages.
