The D’Backs have struggled this season as they currently sit fourth in the NL West standings with an overall record of 73-88. They were much closer to third-placed Giants earlier in the season, but have fallen off since.
Their recent form has been poor. They have lost seven of their last 10 games. For the most part, the D’backs have had a decent season, thanks to great performances by Christian Walker and Zac Gallen. Walker has excelled in the batting department with 36 home runs, 93 RBIs, and 89.35 runs created.
The Brewers were bitterly disappointed to have missed out on the playoffs. They were very close but fell short of the Phillies by a slim margin. Their season as a whole has been a great success. With one game remaining in their regular season, their overall record reads 86-75 with a win percentage of .534.
One of the main reasons for their success this season has been the sublime form of Corbin Burnes.
Burnes leads the side in all the major pitching metrics, including ERA (.298) and strikeouts (238).

D’Backs v Brewers Final Prediction:
The Arizona side has struggled lately, while the Brewers have been pretty decent. There is not much to separate between the two sides when it comes to their starting pitchers for the evening as Burnes and Kelly have quite an evenly matched record this season. But if we consider the overall landscape of the season, roster quality, and on-hand home advantage, the Brewers are the safe bets to win the game and subsequently the series as well.
