Astros vs Guardians Prediction 

Houston was able to overcome a late arrival in Cleveland after their game on Thursday to pick up the win in game one, and they have won four of their last five games. The Astros are 13-16 on the road this year, while the Guardians are 17-12 at home. Cleveland has scored two runs or fewer in three of their last four games, and they will go against Brown, who has allowed one earned run or fewer in four of his last five starts. The Astros will face Williams, who has allowed two earned runs or fewer in four of his last five. I like how both of these pitchers have looked recently, and I think runs are going to be hard to come by. Take the under here.
