Prediction: Chunichi Dragons VS Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles 2025-06-11
The Chunichi Dragons are looking to keep their winning streak alive against the struggling Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles. The Eagles, on the other hand, are trying to break their 6-game losing streak.
In their previous matchup, the Dragons took down the Eagles 1-0, with Okahara earning his 2nd win of the season. The Eagles' new foreign player, Oscar Gonzalez, made his debut but went 0-for-4.
Looking at the odds, the Dragons are favored to win, with a price of 2.05 at LowVig.ag. The Eagles are priced at 1.8. The spread is set at 1.5, with the Dragons at 1.44 and the Eagles at 2.87.
My best bet for this game is the Under 5.5 runs, priced at 1.91 at LowVig.ag. The Eagles have been struggling to score, and the Dragons' pitching has been solid. With the Eagles' offense still trying to find its footing, I expect a low-scoring game.
Additionally, the Eagles' 6-game losing streak and the Dragons' recent win suggest that the Dragons have the momentum. However, the Eagles are due for a bounce-back, and their new foreign player, Gonzalez, might finally find his rhythm.
But let's be real, the Eagles are on a 6-game losing streak, and the Dragons are on a roll. It's hard to bet against the Dragons, but the Under 5.5 runs seems like a safer bet. Take the Under, and let's hope these two teams don't combine for a slugfest.
