Houston Astros vs Oakland Athletics Prediction: The A's have a chance in this finale

Minute Maid Park will host the finale of an MLB game between the Houston Astros and Oakland Athletics. Can the Oakland Athletics avoid a sweep following a slow start? Let'🎉s preview this game from a betting perspective and make a pick. 

Houston Astros

Houston Astros will look to show character in this finale following a decent start in this one. Houston Astros scored 14 runs in the first three games while conceding just three. Coming into this finale, Houston Astros are favorites again and will look to improve their record. Houston Astros have a 19-26 record this season and are seated 4th in the American League West Division.

Oakland Athletics

Oakland Athletics continue to struggle and will now need a lot of work to avoid a sweep. In their last matches, the Oakland Athletics have one win against the Seattle Mariners. However, their series against the Miami Marlins and the Seattle Mariners have ended in defeats, and they are about to be swept by the Astros. This season, Oakland Athletics have an 18-25 record and are seated 13th in the American League.

Analysis and Predictions

The Oakland Athletics should win here regardless. The visiting teaಌm has not been too impressive, but desꦫpite the Houston Astros' strong performance in this series, I still don't trust them. This should be a tough one for the Oakland Athletics, given they are on the road and are not at their best, but still, a bet on the underdogs is worth considering.
