The highly anticipated East Coast vs. West Coast rivalry returns, as the Dodgers and Yankees face off in the World Series. BetMGM has the Dodgers slightly favored at -130 odds, with the Yankees close behind at +110.
Expecting a competitive series, oddsmakers favor Over 5.5 games at -190 odds. For those betting on a seven-game series, the odds stand at +200.
The Dodgers won two out of three games earlier this season when they faced the Yankees in The Bronx, during a healthy stretch with Gavin Stone and Tyler Glasnow. Both pitchers are now sidelined, while the Yankees have since added Jazz Chisholm, strengthening their roster.
Both teams feature powerhouse lineups. The Dodgers’ stars include Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, and Teoscar Hernandez. The Yankees counter with Aaron Judge, Juan Soto, Giancarlo Stanton, and Chisholm.
Ohtani leads the odds to win World Series MVP at +220, followed by Judge at +500 and Soto at +550. Tommy Edman, a standout in the NLCS, is also in the mix at 30/1 odds.
Game 1 kicks off Friday night in Los Angeles, with Yankees ace Gerrit Cole set to start.
