Mathjax weird spacing before and after display math

I am using MathJax to render math on my site and noticed a problem with spacing unequality before and after the "display"/"block" math.

<script type="text/x-mathjax-config">
MathJax.Hub.Config({
    displayAlign: "left",
    tex2jax: {
        inlineMath: [ ['\\(','\\)'] ],
        displayMath: [ ['\\[','\\]'] ],
    },
	  CommonHTML: { linebreaks: { automatic: true } },
    "HTML-CSS": { linebreaks: { automatic: true } },
    SVG: { linebreaks: { automatic: true } },
    TeX: {extensions: ['AMSmath.js', 'AMSsymbols.js']}
});
</script>

<script async src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mathjax/2.7.4/latest.js?config=default"></script>

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
<br>
<br>
\[ R_{\mu \nu }-{\tfrac {1}{2}}R\,g_{\mu \nu }+\Lambda g_{\mu \nu }={\frac {8\pi G}{c^{4}}}T_{\mu \nu } \]
<br>
<br>
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

As you can see the spacing after the math is bigger (55px) than spacing before (39px) it while it should be equal.

How to fix this?

It's not from mathjax, it's from your html. Inspect elements (F12), you see only one <br> is taken after the MMM... line, and two are taken after the equation

<script type="text/x-mathjax-config">
MathJax.Hub.Config({
    displayAlign: "left",
    tex2jax: {
        inlineMath: [ ['\\(','\\)'] ],
        displayMath: [ ['\\[','\\]'] ],
    },
	  CommonHTML: { linebreaks: { automatic: true } },
    "HTML-CSS": { linebreaks: { automatic: true } },
    SVG: { linebreaks: { automatic: true } },
    TeX: {extensions: ['AMSmath.js', 'AMSsymbols.js']}
});
</script>

<script async src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mathjax/2.7.4/latest.js?config=default"></script>

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM<br>
<br>
<br>
\[ R_{\mu \nu }-{\tfrac {1}{2}}R\,g_{\mu \nu }+\Lambda g_{\mu \nu }={\frac {8\pi G}{c^{4}}}T_{\mu \nu } \]
