A full 15-game MLB slate is scheduled for Tuesday, which will include an American League Central matchup between the Kansas City Royals and the Cleveland Guardians. Let’s take a look at the match statistics and predictions for this game between the Royals and the Guardians.
Cleveland has been one of the most mediocre teams in the league to start the season, as they enter this game with a record of 18-18. The Guardians lost Game 1 of this series, but will look to bounce back in Game 2 with Gavin Williams set to start. Williams has easily been one of Cleveland’s best starters, posting a record of 5-1 and an ERA of 2.70. That being said, his struggles this season have been on the road; therefore, he could be in for a rough outing, even against a below-average Royals’ offense.
As for Kansas City, they are still below .500 with a record of 16-19, but have won four games in a row and are 8-2 in their last 10 games. In Game 2 of this series, the Royals are scheduled to start Noah Cameron, who has a record of 2-2 and an ERA of 5.40, which also suggests the Guardians’ offense could have some success.

Our Kansas City Royals vs Cleveland Guardians Prediction
Cleveland is a small favorite in this game; therefore, we will be backing the over. As good as Williams has been this season, his success has almost exclusively been at home. In four starts on the road, Williams has allowed 11 earned runs over 23.0 innings.
Cameron, on the other hand, has made three home starts and has allowed nine earned runs over 16.2 innings. Granted, both teams have average or below-average offenses to start the season; however, with both starters having pitched poorly in terms of their home/away splits, our Kansas City Royals vs Cleveland Guardians prediction is: Over 8 Total Runs.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
