Texas Rangers vs Oakland Athletics: Prediction and Odds on the Match on May 01, 2025

Prediction for Major League Baseball for the 1st of May 2025. This fixture will see the Texas Rangers take on the Oakland Athletics at Globe Life Field. This will be the finale of a three-game series. In the last meeting, the Oakland Athletics secured a win. Can the Texas Rangers take something out of this one? Below, I will preview this game and offer the best betting opportunities. 

Texas Rangers: Form and Statistics

The Texas Rangers continue to struggle and it is just indescribable how this team went from being competitive to having to fight for winning. At the start of the season, the Texas Rangers were brilliant with consecutive series wins and games. Opening their season, the Texas Rangers won two consecutive series, picking up a sweeping win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in that run. 

However, Texas Rangers have failed to find their rhythm lately. In that run, the Texas Rangers have lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers, the San Francisco Giants, and the Oakland Athletics, making it three consecutive series without a win. 

In the third game of this series, the Texas Rangers could only score one run, coming in the fourth inning, which was enough to see them level the score. In the meantime, the good thing is that this team comes in as the favourite here, giving them a good edge entering into this game two. This season, the Texas Rangers have a 16-15 record, leaving them 8th in the American League standings with a 0.516 PCT.

Oakland Athletics Lineup

Jeffery Springs is expected to be on the mound for the Texas Rangers. This season, Springs has a 3-3 record with an average earned run of 6.04. In his last game against the Chicago White Sox, Jeffery Springs went six innings, giving up seven hits and five runs.

Oakland Athletics: Form and Statistics

The Oakland Athletics have been putting off some solid performances this season and we can now always expect more from them. Having struggled sometimes during the season, this team has also done well to deliver quality plays, displaying competitiveness and going toe-to-toe with tough opponents. In fact, the Oakland Athletics have now failed to lose their last two series. In that run, they defeated the Texas Rangers and Chicago White Sox and now have only two losses in their last eight matches. 

In game three of this series, the Oakland Athletics needed a 1-7 win to get themselves in the lead after losing 15-2 in game two. In that contest, the Oakland Athletics scored six runs in the ninth inning to turn the game around totally. Ahead of this feature, the Oakland Athletics have a 16-15 record, leaving them 4th in the American League West Division with a 0.516 PCT. 

Oakland Athletics Lineup

The Oakland Athletics will go with Tyler Mahle in this finale, as they hope he will lead the team well. This season, Tyler Mahle has shown incredible talent, pulling off a 3-0 record. In that run, he had an average earned run of 1.14 , and in his last start, coming against the San Francisco Giants, he went five innings, giving up eight hits and two runs.
