Tigers vs Guardians Prediction

The Guardians have won their last six meetings against the Tigers and are 3-1 in their last 4 meetings in Cleveland.

In this Tigers vs Guardians Prediction, the Guardians are coming as -120 home favorites. I like both pitchers in this matchup, as they have a combined 5.60 ERA and Mize’s two of his last three starts have been shutouts and Gavin Williams has been elite at home with a 2.61 ERA. Both games in this series have been low-scoring ones with 4 and 5 total runs and I expect this trend to continue today. Take the under 7.5 runs.
