I would bet the dems win. They have a golden issue with this health issue which they cannot defend, and more and more people are asking the Republicans about it, and they have no answer.

The longer it goes on the better for the dems, as it is also polling in the dems favor.

NBC news:

Washington Post poll conducted on Oct. 1, the first day of the shutdown, found that 47% of U.S. adults blame Trump and Republicans in Congress, while 30% blame Democrats and 23% said they're not sure.

The survey found that independents blamed Trump and Republicans over Democrats by a wide margin of 50% to 22%. And one-third of Republicans were either unsure who to blame (25%) or blamed their party (8%).
