This is a rematch of last year’s NLCS, which the Cubs needed six games to progress before going on to win the World Series.
But Los Angeles hold the upper hand in this year’s encounter as they hold home field advantage after finishing the season with 104 wins – better than any other side in baseball.
The Dodgers go into the match high on confidence after sweeping the Arizona Diamondbacks while the Cubs beat the Washington Nationals in five games.
In beating the Diamondbacks swiftly, the Dodgers have been able to give Clayton Kershaw plenty of rest and will start Game 1.
Meanwhile the Cubs will start with left-hander Jose Quintana just two days after his relief appearance in the Game 5 win over the Nationals.
