Texas Rangers Form
Texas make the short trip to Houston on the back of a loss, but in good form with 13 wins from their last 17 games.
The Rangers began this run at home where they responded to a 4-0 defeat to the Los Angeles Angels with 7-3 and 20-3 victories.
They then went out on the road to sweep the Athletics, winning 5-2, 9-3 and 9-6, but failed to build on a 7-5 series-opening win in Arizona as they lost the next two meetings, 5-3 and 2-0.
Texas rebounded at home though as they sandwiched an 11-0 loss to Houston with 4-3 and 4-2 victories, and they backed that up with 5-0, 5-4 and 6-3 wins over Milwaukee.
The Rangers then took their streak to six games with 8-3 and 3-2 wins at the New York Mets, only to see it end with a 5-2 loss in the ‘Big Apple’ on Sunday.
Houston Astros Form
Houston return home looking to find some consistency and start a good run, having now lost nine of their last 15 games.
The Astros’ underwhelming run started with 4-1 and 3-0 home defeats to the Los Angeles Angels, and they then failed to build on 8-3 victory in the series finale.
They sandwiched an 8-7 win over the New York Yankees with 7-1 and 8-4 defeats, before losing 4-3 and 4-2 to Texas either side of an 11-0 success.
That trend continued for Houston as they then rebounded from a 4-3 loss in Toronto with a 3-2 victory over the Blue Jays, only to then drop the last meeting 6-0.
The Astros made a better start in Atlanta though, winning 11-3 and 6-2, but they failed to complete the series sweep as they lost Sunday’s clash with the Braves, 8-3.
Verdict
Texas have form on their side and a starting pitcher in solid form heading into this one.
They have won as an underdog in three of the last six meetings and have been victorious in six of the last 10 overall, so give us the Rangers and the plus-money.
