The struggling Chicago White Sox will be looking to build on Friday's shock 9-4 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays, when the sides recommence battle on Saturday night. Despite that unexpected win, the White Sox still have a terrible 4-22 season record with many experts regarding them as the weakest side in the entire league. Before Friday, they had lost their previous seven games, leaving them eight games adrift at the bottom of the AL Central. The Rays have also endured poor form recently, losing four of their last five games. However, victory tonight would move them back to 0.500, firmly in contention in the ultra-tight AL East. 

The game will be the 186th meeting between the teams, with the White Sox holding a 98-87 head-to-head lead. However, in recent times the Rays have held the upper hand, winning six of the last eight matchups.

Our Chicago White Sox vs Tampa Bay Rays Prediction

Despite their victory in game one, the White Sox are still a very hard side to back. Their roster is amongst the weakest in the league and their form has been largely uninspiring. Of course, the Rays are hardly pulling up any trees themselves, but they are clearly the superior team and should be able to square the set after Friday's surprise defeat. Naturally, there's not a huge amount of value in backing a Rays win, but we think there is some appeal in adding a totals wager to your betting slip. As such, our prediction for White Sox vs Rays is: Rays to win and over 7.5 runs, 2.22 at FanDuel.

Prediction:

 

Tampa to win and over 7.5 total runs
