The New York Mets host the Detroit Tigers at Citi Field on Tuesday night in the first contest of a three-game series.
Both sides will be disappointed with their season so far; The Tigers are currently third in the relatively weak AL Central with a 19-22 record, whilst the Mets are rock bottom of the NL East, having won just 15 of their 40 games.
Offense has clearly been the big problem for the Mets; They are languishing in second bottom place in the current team batting averages and have failed to score more than three runs in any of their last four games.
The Tigers claimed an important 3-6 victory over the Royals last time out, but before that, they had been on a five game losing run that included a brutal 3-0 series sweep by the Red Sox, plus two defeats to the Royals.

Our New York Mets vs Detroit Tigers Prediction
Both the Mets and the Tigers have been struggling offensively in recent weeks, so we are not expecting a high scoring encounter at Citi Field.
New York have been one of the worst batting sides in MLB this season, whilst the Tigers' road form does little to inspire confidence in their ability to get runs on the board.
Because of that (plus the fact that these are two very evenly matched teas), we are looking at the total runs markets rather than the moneyline.
Our prediction for New York Mets vs Detroit Tigers is: Under 7.5 runs.
