Los Angeles Angels vs Oakland Athletics Prediction: This match could go either way

The Major League Baseball Angel Stadium will host the game between Los Angeles Angels and Oakland Athletics. This will be the first game of a four-game series. Which team draws the first blood?

The Los Angeles Angels have been very decent, and in this series, they will look to keep things running. In his last series, the Los Angeles Angels played the Seattle Mariners on the road and completed a sweeping win. In the first game, the Los Angeles Angels won 1-3 and 1-5 in game 2.

Yet, the Los Angeles Angels have a 45-57 record and are seated 13th in the American League standings heading into this game. 

The Oakland Athletics are coming off a series against the Houston Astros, and they secured a win. In that series, the Oakland Athletics the Oakland Athletics secured 4-0 and 8-2 wins in the first two games. However, they lost the finale by a wide run, losing 1-8. However, in their last series, the Oakland Athletics have defeated the Los Angeles Angels and Philadelphia Phillies but lost to the Boston Red Sox and Arizona Diamondbacks.

Expect a competitive game in this opening game. Having looked at how things ended in their last meetings, I see this game is open. However, the two teams did not play up to expectations at this stage of the season. This could be a tight one, but the Angels should be able to kick things off at home.
