Minnesota Twins (19-24) and Miami Marlins (20-23) will play a high-stakes matchup on Thursday evening at Target Field. The Twins will be shooting to clinch this tiebreaker after suffering a disappointing 5-9 defeat on Wednesday night. Despite the defeat, their offense remained lively in this series, having defeated the Marlins 3-0 in Game 1. The Twins will know that early pressure will be key in dictating the tempo today.
Miami Marlins, meanwhile, went on the offensive early on Wednesday to put away the hosts. Owen Cassie hit a two-run homer, whereas Liam Hicks got three RBIs to help the Marlins pull away for a 9-5 win. The Marlins played aggressively, especially in the second when they took a 4-1 lead and never looked back. We expect them to employ the same strategy today as they seek to get an early lead.

Our Minnesota Twins vs Miami Marlins Prediction
Minnesota Twins are the -125 favorites in this tight contest. They’re in great form currently, going 3-1 in their last four games with a similar record against the spread. However, the Marlins are also excelling lately, winning three of their last four games. They also have a similar record on the road. Based on these statistics, we’ll skip the tricky moneyline odds and instead back the total runs to stay under 9.5. The Marlins’ offense isn’t exactly blowing away opponents on the road, scoring under 4.5 runs in six of their last seven assignments. Also, Zebby Matthews of Minnesota and Braxton Garret of Miami have 0.00 ERA records this season. We, therefore, expect both sides to take a cautious approach to avoid dropping this series.
Our prediction for Minnesota Twins vs Miami Marlins: Total runs to stay under 9.5.
