The LA Dodgers will win the World Series in the coming days – at least this is the prediction of millions of American Bet-fans who are betting hundreds of millions on the outcome of the historic Dodgers-Yankee-battle.
The Dodgers are betting favorite with a money line of -130 compared with the Yankees who are the underdogs with a money line of +110.
Therefore Los Angeles is a 1.5 run favorite with + 158 odds.
But the odds are very narrow. The money line for this matchup still implies that the Yankees have a 47,6 % chance of coming away with a victory. For the Yankees the role as an underdog is pretty new: They are not favored for a win the first time in a while, as they have not been underdogs in their last 10 games, especially at the playoffs.
The Dodgers on the other hand have a 5-3 record across the eight games they were favored on the money line. Their chance for winning based on money line is 56,5 %.
