Houston Astros vs Washington Nationals Prediction & Betting Tips - MLB

Prediction published on 28/10/2019, 12:04  by Steve Ashfield | Modified on 28/10/2019 at 13:04 in Baseball Predictions

From 2-0 down, Houston Astros have won the last three games of this 2019 World Series. They lost their first two home games but then went to Washington Nationals and came away with three straight wins. Now they only require one win from the final two games (both being played in Houston) to win their second World Series title in three years. All five games in this World Series have produced away wins (inly the third time that's ever happened) but with the Astros in top form now, that run should end in this sixth match.

Houston won the fifth match of the series 7-1 and that makes it an aggregate score of 19-3 in the last three games. Hardly what Washington were expecting when beginning their three home matches with a 2-0 lead in the series. Just how the Nationals are going to be able to turn the tide now they return to Houston remains to be seen. They will have Stephen Strasbourg pitching for them but he'll be up against Houston's Justin Verlander. Go for the Astros to win this match and win the World Series.
