Los Angeles Dodgers Form

The Dodgers ended August on a great run of form that saw them follow up a 2-1 win in St Louis with a three-game sweep of Seattle at home.
They then hosted Tampa Bay for a three-game series and sandwiched a 9-8 defeat to the Rays with 7-3 and 3-1 victories.
Los Angeles then rebounded from a 3-2 series-opening defeat to Baltimore with 6-4 and 6-3 wins over the Orioles, sparking a four-game win streak.
The Dodgers took the first two meetings with the Diamondbacks in Arizona, 10-9 and 8-6, and then rebounded from a 14-3 defeat with an 11-6 success in the series finale.
Los Angeles Angels Form
Los Angeles come into this series in improved form, having won three of their previous four games.
The Angels ended August on a miserable run of form as they failed to build on a 9-5 victory at Kansas City.
They lost the final game of that series, 3-0, and that proved to be the start of a seven-game losing skid that saw them lose 5-3, 5-4, 3-1 and 8-2 in Toronto.
Los Angeles were then beaten 6-2 and 3-2 in Detroit, before finally ending their skid with a 3-2 victory over the Tigers.
The Angels were unable to back up that win, losing 9-5 in Seattle, but they did rebound to take the next two meetings with the Mariners, 5-4 and 3-2.
