Detroit Tigers Form

Detroit entered this series with AL Central rivals Cleveland on a terrible run of form, having lost nine of their previous 10 games.

The Tigers began this miserable sequence with a 9-3 defeat at the New York Yankees, which was then followed by 8-2 and 6-4 losses in Miami.

They did avoid being swept by the Marlins, winning the final meeting 2-0, but they have not tasted victory since that matchup.

Detroit returned home to get swept by Cleveland in a three game series, losing 7-5, 4-0 and 3-1 to the Guardians.

The Tigers then dropped all three home meetings with Atlanta last week, as they were beaten 10-1, 6-5 and 6-2 by the Braves.

Cleveland Guardians Form

Cleveland came into this series as one of the form teams in Major League Baseball, having won 15 of their previous 17 games.

The Guardians started this red-hot run in Tampa as they bounced back from a 4-2 defeat to the Rays with 7-1, 3-2 and 2-1 win to wrap up that series.

They then headed back home to beat Kansas City 10-2 and 2-0, before rebounding from a 4-3 defeat to the Royals with a 3-2 win that kicked off a 10-game win streak.

Cleveland swept the Chicago White Sox with 4-0, 3-1 and 3-2 victories, before heading out on the road to sweep Detroit in a three-game series, recording 7-5, 4-0 and 3-1 wins.

The Guardians extended their streak to 10 games with 6-2, 7-0 and 8-0 wins in Minnesota, only to then see it end as they dropped the final meeting with the Twins, 6-2.

Verdict

Both starters have been in good form recently, so this could be a close encounter.

However, we simply have to go with Cleveland, who have taken full advantage of Detroit's collapse to storm to the summit in the AL Central.
