Major League Baseball
The Los Angeles Angels enter this matchup second in the AL West standings, four games behind the Astros for first place. The Angels were most recently swept in a four-game series against Toronto and have now lost nine of their last 12 games.
New York Yankees
Last week the Toronto Blue Jays were able to give out a great stretch, got five wins in a row, breaking dry in the series and the Los Angeles Angels (4: 0), which allowed them to bypass them in the American League table. Now the team of Charlie Montoyo is fifth and has every chance to move two competitors, because he has two matches in hand. In the debut meeting with the Chicagoans, the Jays will release Kevin Gausman (4-3), who is in good shape, on the mound.
Los Angeles Angels
The Los Angeles Angels had a poor run the previous week and lost five in a row, dropping Joe Maddon’s side to sixth in the American League with a 0.551 win percentage. This significantly slowed down the pace of progress of the Californians to the top and for now they should forget about the leadership in the overall standings. The series against the Toronto Blue Jays went badly (3:6, 3:4, 5:6 and 10:11) and in New York it will be extremely difficult for the Angels to stop their string of failures, because the opponent itself is extremely motivated.
Prediction
Both clubs have not been very convincing in their last matches, especially for the "angels", who are extremely important to break their losing streak. However, in our opinion, it will be incredibly difficult to do this, because the Yankees themselves want to gain a foothold on the top, having lost several points of statistics after two defeats in a row. In terms of class and experience, the New Yorkers also have a significant advantage and we believe that the guests will be disappointed in the opening match, which we suggest taking advantage of. Most likely, the hosts will be stronger. Prediction is for a handicap (-1) for the New York Yankees. For such an outcome 1xBet offers a coefficient of 2.07.
