Houston Astros vs Detroit Tigers Prediction: Astros are expected to even the series

Wild Card MLB encounter between the Houston Astros and Detroit Tigers will take place at Minute Maid Park. The Tigers are in the lead in this series. Let’s preview this game and make predictions. 

The Houston Astros will look to step up their game after a disappointing game one. In that match, this team scored only one run while conceding three. In the meantime, the Houston Astros have lost four of their last seven games to the Seattle Astros and Los Angeles Angels. Heading into this game, the home team is the favorite and will now look to return to winning ways. 

The Detroit Tigers will look to step up just like in the opener in this game. Securing a 1-3 win, the Detroit Tigers have won their second game in their last six against the Houston Astros. Heading into this game, the Detroit Tigers have seven wins in their previous nine games, with their defeats coming against the Chicago White Sox. 

The Houston Astros should respond well in this game 2 at all costs after a very slow start. While the Tigers were brilliant in game 1, I do not see them having an easy one here. Expect a close game, but I will trust the Astros this time, which should end with many runs.
