Will the Cleveland Guardians get revenge on the New York Yankees for their four-game losing streak? This is the main question on which our prediction for the third game of the second round of the MLB playoff series is based. Bookmakers evaluate the chances of success for both teams similarly. And we, in turn, did not identify a clear favorite immediately.
Cleveland
Cleveland continues to show unstable baseball in the fall, having very little chance of winning the trophy. For several months, the team has not put together significant winning streaks, which indicates serious organizational problems. In the previous round, the boys were one step away from disaster. However, thanks to timely changes, they still managed to break Detroit’s resistance (3-2). This time, it will be much more difficult for Sam Vogt’s gang, as the accumulated tiredness is felt more.
New York
New York, on the contrary, is in an extremely favorable position, having practically transformed itself into the main contender for the final title. Not so long ago, the team suffered from numerous player losses, but now it performs almost at full strength. On the road, Aaron Boone’s protégés have won five games in a row, relying mainly on excellent defense (nine points conceded). In attack, however, Aaron Judge continues to make a significant contribution to the collective success, having impressed with excellent statistics yesterday (1+1+3).
Predictions from the editorial team
In our humble opinion, this match should not delight with high productivity. The teams presented love to “dry the game” when they get even a small lead, and we believe that this time too the pace of the game will slow down to a minimum level at some point. Under is the priority choice for the match.
