Houston Astros breathed life into their World Series campaign when winning the third match 4-1. That was their first win over the Washington Nationals in this best-of-seven series and they now trail 2-1 with four matches remaining. None of the three games played so far have been won by the home side in this difficult to predict World Series. Houston narrowly lost the first match 5-4 but were hammered 12-3 in the second. They travelled to Washington for the third game knowing they just had to get a win. That's just what the Astros did with a 4-1 win.
Zack Grienke put in a great display for Houston in the latest match. Washington go into this fourth game with a doubt over the fitness of catcher Kurt Suzuki who injured his hip on Friday. Houston can level the scores with a win here, but a victory for the Nationals will see them able to win the World Series on Sunday. Go for over 5.5 points to be scored in this match.

Our Washington Nationals vs Houston Astros Prediction
The first three games of this 2019 World Series have all been won by the away side. Picking winners has become very difficult in this topsy-turvy series, so it's best to go to the points total for a win, even if it's not great odds. A bet on over 5.5 points in the match looks one that should be a winner.
