Preview

The Angels and Miami Marlins will play game 1 of their 2-Game series on Tuesday at loanDepot Park in Miami, The Angels are 2-0 Vs the Marlins this season so far and both games were in at home for the Angels.

Los Angeles Angels 

Los Angeles are coming off a 0-3 sweep Vs the Astros, the Angels have scored 4 runs and allowed 21 runs to the Astros in 3 games in this series! The Angels aren't in a good form at the moment and it will be hard to back up their 2-0 record Vs the Marlins. The Angeles are 21st in runs scored and 18th in runs allowed this season.

Probable pitcher:

Noah Syndergaard (5-6, 3.86 ERA) will be on the mound for the Angels in game 1 on Tuesday, Syndergaard's last start was against Chicago White Sox and he went 7 innings allowing 3 earned runs and had 7 strikeouts in a game that ended as a 4-3 win for the Angels.

Miami Marlins

Miami Marlins are in their best form of the season as they on a 5 games winning streak at the moment after sweeping the Nationals 4-0 and beat the Cardinals before that. Miami have scored 21 runs and allowed 12 runs to the Nationals in 4 games in their previous series. Marlins are 15th in runs scored and 14th in runs allowed this season.

Probable pitcher:

Sandy Alcantara (8-3, 1.95 ERA) will be on the mound for the Marlins in game 1 on Tuesday, Alcantara's last start was against the Cardinals and he went 9 innings allowing 2 earned runs and had 3 strikeouts in a game that ended as a 4-3 win for the Marlins.

Betting Trends

Los Angeles Angels have gone Under the total in 14 of last 20 games.

Los Angeles Angels are 1-4 Straight up last 5 games.

Los Angeles Angels are 4-15 straight up last 19 road games.

Miami Marlins are 5-0 Straight up last 5 games.

Miami Marlins are 7-2 Straight up last 9 home games.

Miami Marlins have gone Under the total in 4 of last 6 games.

Prediction

I like the Under a lot in this game, the Angels are 14-6 to the Under in the last 20 games and the Marlins are 4-2 to the Under last 6 games. Sandy Alcantara who is having a great season so far will be the pitcher for the Marlins and they are playing great at the moment especially defensively so I like them to win but I like the Under more.

PICK: Total Under 7 (-102).
