Our Miami Marlins vs Los Angeles Angels Prediction
Key Stats: Both teams are averaging under 3.0 runs per game while posting strong pitching numbers this week.
Tyler Phillips has been one of the most consistent starters for the Marlins this season, and has never allowed more than two runs in any of his last five starts.
George Klassen will hit the mound for the first time since surrendering 4 earned runs in his last start against the Reds on April 12. Klassen’s pitching stint may not last that long as the Angels will try to use this game to give their bullpen more reps.
What to Expect: In a clash between teams with poor offense and strong pitching, you can expect a low-scoring series opener on Friday.
The safe pick here is to back the Under 8.0 runs, but if you want more value with some risk, taking the Marlins to cover doesn’t seem like a bad move, too.
Fearless Forecast: Marlins 3, Angels 1
Our betting prediction for the Miami Marlins vs. the LA Angels: Under 8.0 Runs
