Oakland Athletics vs Houston Astros Prediction: Astros to take something out of this series

The Oakland Athletics and Houston Astr🔴os meet in the finale of their MLB action at the Oakland Coliseum. Heading into this finale, ca🏅n the Astros, despite being on the road, avoid a sweeping defeat? 

Oakland Athletics

The A’s head into this game following a strong form and they will be confident to keep things running. In the opener, this team secured a 4-0 win and stamped it with a six-run win in game 2. However, the Oakland Athletics head into this finale as underdogs, like every other game of this series, but stand a chance of completing a sweep, provided they are at their best once again. With this series, the Oakland Athletics have made it three series in their last four, two others coming against the Los Angeles Angels and Philadelphia Phillies, with their defeat coming against the Boston Red Sox. 

Houston Astros

The Houston Astros have played below par in this series, and this is one of many series they have struggled. In two games in which they have conceded 12 runs already, this team scored just two, the last in the first two games of their recent series. However, this team also lost one of their prior series to this against the Texas Rangers and Minnesota Twins, despite the fact they secured wins against the Seattle Mariners, and Miami Marlins. 

Expert Betting Tips

The Houston Astros have underperformed in this series, but I still think they have something to take here. The A’s, on the other hand, have shown they can go up against tough opponents, having defeated the Phillies also recently. Yet, I am convinced that the Astros will not suffer a sweeping defeat despite their less-than-impressive play here. While the Oakland Athletics will be strong offensively once again, expect this game to end with high runs.
