Los Angeles Angels vs Houston Astros Prediction: Astros to open the series with a win

Angel Stadium will host the MLB encounter between the Los Angeles Angels and Houston Astros. The two teams are coming off a defeat in their last series. How will these two team☂s approach this one?

The Los Angeles Angels are coming off a series against the Minnesota Twins, and they lost. In that series, the Los Angeles Angels started with a 2-6 win but then struggled in the last two games. The Los Angeles Angels lost 10-5 in those matches, with the finale ending 6-4. In the meantime, the Los Angeles Angels lost to the Texas Rangers and Los Angeles Dodgers in their last series. Heading into this game, the Los Angeles Angels have a 60-86 record, leaving them seated 14th in the American League. 

The Houston Astros are coming off a series against the Oakland Athletics and lost. The Houston Astros started the series with a 3-4 defeat, and in the second game, they lost 4-5. However, Houston needed a 6-3 win in the finale to avoid a sweeping loss. However, this team's recent matches saw the Houston Astros lose to the Cincinnati Reds while picking wins over the Arizona Diamondbacks, Kansas City Royals, and Philadelphia Phillies. 

The Houston Astros are the better team in this one and should be able to win. While the Los Angeles Angels have struggled all season, they have always been a threat to top teams. While this could be close, the Houston Astros are still the better team to get the job done, looking at what they have done in the past in this series, and I am backing them with a good margin.
