New York Mets (17-25) and Detroit Tigers (19-24) will clash in the third and final match of this three-game series on Thursday evening. The Mets will be preparing their brooms to sweep the Tigers today after taking a commanding 2-0 lead. They opened this home series with a 10-2 thumping on Tuesday night before getting a nervy 3-2 win on Wednesday night. The Mets are on the brink of their first series sweep this season.
Detroit Tigers, on the other side of the grass, will have few positives to pick up from this series unless they win today. They continue to struggle on the road this season with their attack showing little signs of improvement. In their last seven matches, the Tigers have averaged a measly 2.43 runs per game, highlighting their stalling offense. That’s an area they must improve on to match New York’s explosive hitting.

Our New York Mets vs Detroit Tigers Prediction
Bookmakers are backing the Mets to win at exciting -180 odds. They’ll send Nolan McLean to the mound, as he seeks to improve his 1-2 record and 2.78 ERA. The right-handed pitcher offers a strong foundation for the hosts to stifle Detroit’s inconsistent offense. To be more precise, the Tigers have scored under 3.5 runs in six of their last seven matches. However, Detroit’s Keider Montero will also be eager to prove his worth today. He has a better 2-2 record and a solid 3.18 ERA. He faces the challenging task of rescuing the series for the visitors, who have struggled on the road this season, with a 7-18 record to show for their efforts. Still, they should at least cover the +1.5 handicap.
