LG Twins vs Samsung Lions Prediction 4 September 2026
📡 LG clinched their third consecutive win over Doosan with a 1-0 victory, in a game dominated by pitching on both sides. Samsung, on the other hand, suffered a surprising 3-2 defeat to Lotte and relinquished the top spot in the standings. Now, the second and third-placed teams in the league square off at Jamsil, with Carlos Carrasco set to face Chris Paddack on the mound.
Head-to-Head
📊 Samsung lead the season series 6-5, highlighting just how evenly matched these teams are. They also sit close together in the overall standings. LG will have the home-field advantage, but they'll be up against Peddack, who boasts a 2.25 ERA. That means the hosts will need to be far more clinical than they were in their last outing against Doosan, when they managed just a single run.

⚾ Starting Pitchers
Carlos Carrasco comes in with a 3-1 record and a 3.26 ERA. He has yet to face Samsung in KBO action, but his early outings have shown solid command, giving LG a reliable platform to control the game from the outset.
Chris Paddack stands at 4-2 with an impressive 2.25 ERA. He also hasn’t pitched against LG yet. Overall, Paddack has the edge over Carrasco and represents Samsung’s main weapon heading into Friday’s matchup.
⭐ Editor's Pick
On paper, Samsung’s starting lineup may look a touch stronger, but LG get the nod here based on their current momentum. The hosts are riding a four-game winning streak, having just edged Doosan 1-0, and they’ll hand the ball to Carrasco, who boasts a 3.26 ERA. Samsung remain a dangerous opponent, but with the season series standing at 6-5, there’s little to separate these sides. In such a close matchup, home-field advantage could prove decisive. If LG keep it tight into the late innings, the renewed confidence in their pitching staff and the energy of the home crowd should give them every chance to extend their run. The main pick here is an LG win.
