Why the Yankees Will Beat the Red Sox

  • The Red Sox have lost each of their last five road games.
  • The Yankees have won nine of their last 10 games against the Red Sox following an extra-innings win.
  • The Red Sox have failed to cover the run line in each of their last four road games.
  • The Yankees have covered the run line in five of their last six games after going to extra innings.

Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees Prediction

The Red Sox have confidence heading into this game, but that is going to be blown up here. Nestor Cortes Jr is coming off a strong start, and it’s going to be much of the same here. The Red Sox’s offense is going to really struggle to get any sort of offense going here and that is going to be the difference here as the Yankees are going to get the job done. Back the Yankees on the run line.
