Betting Trends

The Twins are 4-6 SU in their last 10 games overall and 1-3 SU in their last 4 games on the road. Minnesota has played over the total run line in their last 5 games overall and has stayed under in their last 3 games on the road. The Guardians are 6-4 SU in their last 10 games overall and 2-2 SU in their last 4 home games. Cleveland has played under the total run line in 8 of their last 10 games overall and in their last 4 home games. Cleveland has won 8 of the last 10 games against Minnesota and 7 of their last 10 head-to-head games have ended under the total run line.

 

Prediction and Conclusion

Both teams have a promising season and are almost certain participants in the playoffs. The Guardians have a 6.5-game advantage over the Twins, but things may heat up if Minnesota can win this series. The visitors will start Pablo Lopez at the mound today, who is 15-8 for the season with a 3.88 ERA, 183 K, 169.1 IP, and 1.13 WHIP. The Guardians will go with Matthew Boyd, who is 2-1 for the season with a 2.18 ERA, 35 K, 33 IP, and 0.99 WHIP. The Guardians have won 8 of the last 10 games against the Twins, but with Lopez, Minnesota has a legit chance in this game, so we go with the Twins to cover the +1.5-run spread.
