The San Francisco Giants will be hoping to do better after a very struggling start to this series. However, it is important to note that the San Francisco Giants have been amazing in recent times, displaying character and playing so well week in and week out. In their recent series, the San Francisco Giants have lost only two, one against the Los Angeles Angels. In that series, the San Francisco Giants started the series with a 2-0 defeat, and despite a 2-3 win in game two, they ended up losing 5-4 in the finale.

The Texas Rangers stepped things up against the San Francisco Giants in the opener of this series and will hope to do better here. In that game, the Texas Rangers needed third and fourth inning runs to win. However, prior series to this saw the Texas Rangers lose to the Oakland Athletics and Los Angeles Dodgers. In those series, the Texas Rangers could only avoid a sweeping defeat, thanks to a 4-3 win over the Los Angeles Angels and 5-8 over the Oakland Athletics.

San Francisco Giants vs Texas Rangers Match Prediction 26 April 2025

The San Francisco Giants have been amazing this season but it is no surprise that the Texas Rangers got the best of them in the opener. On the other hand, the San Francisco Giants are back as the favourites in this fixture, but with what the Texas Rangers displayed in the opener of this series defensively, it is just impossible to write them off. 

This should be much more competitive than the first game was and I do not see either side giving up easily. In this fixture, I expect the San Francisco Giants to be the better side, especially at home, as they hope to improve their standings. However, the Texas Rangers have suffered lately, and after a win in the opener, they will definitely feel they can repeat that level they showed in game one. I will not write anything off in this game, but I feel the San Francisco Giants can get a win while we expect many runs.
