The New York Yankees (35-25) and Los Angeles Dodgers (35-24) meet Sunday for the finale of a 3-game series. First pitch from Dodger Stadium is set for 7:10 p.m. ET (ESPN). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Yankees vs. Dodgers odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.
Season series: tied 1-1
New York snapped a 2-game skid with a 6-3 victory as a -107 road favorite Saturday by mashing 4 home runs. OF Jake Bauers connected for a pair of 2-run home runs, in the 2nd and 4th innings, to put New York up 4-1 through 4 innings which was all the offense it would need. Solo shots from OF Aaron Judge in the 6th and OF Oswaldo Cabrera in the 9th were just cherries on top.
The Yankees are 3-2 in their last 5 games and 16-12 on the road this season; the Dodgers are also 3-2 in their last 5 outings and sit at 20-9 at home on the year.

Yankees at Dodgers picks and predictions
Prediction
Dodgers 4, Yankees 1
Moneyline
BET DODGERS (-155).
Both teams are 5-5 in their last 10 games overall and have similar records on the season. Neither team has a clear advantage but the Dodgers’ dominant home record does make them highly unlikely to lose back-to-back home games — something they’ve only done once this season.
Run line/Against the spread
LEAN DODGERS -1.5 (+125).
Both previous games in this series were decided by 3 or more runs I don’t see that changing here. The Dodgers should win this game and there is some value with the home team getting plus money to win by 2 or more.

Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 9 (-105).
The Under is 5-0 in German’s last 5 interleague starts. The Over has been the safer play for Los Angeles recently, but after 2 higher-scoring games in the first 2 games of this series, I expect a lower-scoring outing Sunday.
