White Sox vs Twins Prediction

The White Sox are 5-1 in their last 6 head-to-head meetings against the Twins, and both teams are tied 3-3 wins in their last 6 meetings in Minnesota. Over is 8-3-1 in their last 12 meetings.

In this White Sox vs Twins Prediction, the Twins are coming as -180 home favorites. Why on earth are the Twins such big favorites with Zebby Matthews on the mound is beyond me. They have been dominated in this series by the White Sox, getting outscored by 18-8, and Matthews was torched in his only start against the White Sox this season, with 4 earned runs in 4 innings pitched. Gomez’s only start against the Twins this season was a shutout in 4.2 innings pitched, so I really like the White Sox as big road dogs in this one.
