Angels vs Red Sox Prediction

The Angels won six of the previous ten H2H encounters, including four of five this season. Yusei Kikuchi already faced Boston this year and allowed three runs in 5.0 innings in a no-decision, but the Los Angeles won that game in extra innings. Kikuchi hasn’t surrendered more than three runs in his last ten starts, and I am backing him to do it again here. Richard Fitts, on the other hand, was dismantled in his previous start, which happened to be against the Angels, when he allowed six runs (five earned) in 1.0 inning. I am backing the Angels to get to him early on once again. Back the Angels.
