Minnesota Twins vs Boston Red Sox Prediction: Will the Twins end their poor run?

The MLB preseason continues, and in this Friday fixture, the Minnesota Twins will play the Boston Red Sox at Hammond Stadium. The Sox won the last time in this fixture. How will this game unfold? Below, I preview this game and offer predictions. 

Minnesota Twins

The Minnesota Twins played the Detroit Tigers last time out and ended on the losing end. In a 5-6 close contest, the Minnesota Twins had ten hits, and despite a solid performance in the fourth inning, it was not enough to see them win following poor performances in the final innings of the game. In the meantime, the Minnesota Twins have faced defeat in their last three matches, the first two against the Pittsburgh Pirates and Boston Red Sox. The Minnesota Twins head into this game with just one win in their last five matches, coming against the Atlanta Braves. 

Boston Red Sox

The Boston Red Sox took on the Detroit Tigers in their previous time out and secured a win. Pulling off a 6-4 win, this team scored in rounds 1 and 2 and then waited until the 6th and 7th to secure a win. However, the Boston Red Sox have won three of their last five matches, defeating the Atlanta Braves and Minnesota Twins in that run, ending 5-6, and the Atlanta Braves. In the meantime, this team lost in a disappointing fashion to the Baltimore Orioles in that run while settling for a 4-4 draw with the New York Yankees. 

Expert Betting Tips

The Twins are favoured here, but I do not see them having an easy task considering their recent performances. On the other hand, the Boston Red Sox have not been dominant, considering their wins have ended with close scores. In the meantime, looking at the two teams' run of games into this fixture, the Red Sox are still slightly better, and their record in this fixture is enticing. Hence, a win for the road team.
