The Los Angeles Angels seek their 8th straight win on Friday when they kick off a new series with the Miami Marlins at Angel Stadium.
The Angels aim to extend their scorching hot form over the weekend while hosting the Marlins at home. Los Angeles has swept the Dodgers and the Athletics to improve their record to 24-25, which elevated them to No.4 in the AL West. The Angels’ offense is still dealing the heavy damage, averaging 6.8 runs per game on a .271 BA.
The Marlins will enter the weekend series with the Angels, trying to bounce back from back-to-back losses to the Chicago Cubs. Miami's 5.46 ERA this season puts them in 29th place in this category. The Marlins have also struggled mightily in scoring runs this season, as they only rank 23rd in the league with 197 total runs.

Our Miami Marlins vs Los Angeles Angels Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Angels nabs 8th straight win with a rout over the Marlins
Why you should bet on the Angels to cover -1.5 runs: Friday’s starter, Yusei Kikuchi, pitched the Angels to a win in his last three starts, including a 6-4 victory over the Dodgers on May 18. Kikuchi allowed one earned run and four walks in 5.2 innings in that game. The Angels are counting on their starting pitcher to contain Miami’s offense, which produces 3.9 runs per game on the road this season. The Angels are 8-2 against the spread in their last 10 games.
Why you should NOT bet on the Marlins to cover +1.5 runs: Miami is starting Sandy Alcantara (8.51 ERA), who has lost in his last five starts. Alcantara posted an 8-inning shutout with 10 strikeouts the last time he pitched against the Angels, but that performance took place almost three years ago. Considering the Angels ' red-hot offense and disappointing form this season, I would be surprised if he can replicate that feat on Friday.
