Who does America want to win the 2021 World Series? With the Atlanta Braves and Houston Astros set to get the Fall Classic underway on Tuesday night, BetOnline.ag compiled some data from around the internet that shows who has the public support.

As it turns out, people have not forgiven the Astros for the cheating scandal and that has led to overwhelming support for the Braves.

BetOnline.ag conducted a Twitter survey that compiled geo-tracked tweets immediately after the World Series matchup was set. The study analyzed more than 230,000 tweets of official fan hashtags in every state: #BattleATL and #ForTheH.

When it was all said and done, only Texas and Louisiana showed their support for Houston.

Here is the full breakdown:

Unfortunately for the fans, the Astros are favored to win the World Series in the sportsbooks.

The World Series is set to begin on Tuesday, October 26, as the Astros and Braves battle it out for the Commissioner’s Trophy.

All games will air on FOX, with Games 1 and 2 at Minute Maid Park in Houston and Games 3, 4, and 5 (if necessary) at Truist Park in Atlanta. If Games 6 and 7 are needed, they will be held in Houston.
