Boston Red Sox vs Seattle Mariners Match Prediction 22 April 2025

These are two impressive sides that have shown quality and determination this season and it is clear this game will be full of competition. While the Boston Red Sox are clear favourites, the Seattle Mariners have shown they can be a tough side on their best days, having already won half of their games as underdogs. At home, I believe the Boston Red Sox will be a force to beat, but the Seattle Mariners as underdogs could also go on to get within the line or win games like this.

I expect a game where the two teams will show zero relentless effort, giving their best performances. This should be an offensively focused game, as the two teams will prioritise winning and improve their standings. However, I still believe the Boston Red Sox will get the head start in this opener, which should end with a close scoreline.
