The third game of the three match series between the Red Sox and Orioles takes place in Boston on Thursday night, with both sides looking to gain an edge in the AL West race. Despite that lopsided result, the bookmakers are predicting an extremely close contest this time around.

Both sides are virtually identical in the markets and are experiencing very similar seasons so far in the competitive AL West. The Red Sox have the slight edge, sitting at 7-4, largely thanks to a run of six wins from their last eight games. Baltimore are just one game back, and will go above their rivals with victory tonight. With the Yankees looking like the class act of the division, the fight to join them in the postseason already looks like a fierce battle. 

This will be the 2302nd meeting between the two franchises, with the Red Sox holding a 55% win record. In recent seasons, the matchup has been extremely close - the six games played in Boston last year resulted in three wins a piece.

Our Boston Red Sox vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction

Calling a winner in this one looks like an extremely tough task and you can make a strong case for both sides. Yes, the Orioles were comfortable winners in game one, but overall these are two very evenly matched teams. Over the course of the season, we would expect the Red Sox to finish with the superior record. Nevertheless, we are going to take the plunge and predict that Baltimore will not only win, but do so by at least two runs. Our prediction for Red Sox v Orioles is: Orioles (-1.5) to win, 2.38 at BetMGM.

Prediction:

 

Orioles (-1.5) to win
