The Twins are 6-2 in their last 8 meetings against the Angels and have won their last 5 meetings in Minnesota.
In this Angels vs Twins Prediction, the Twins are coming as -130 home favorites. I like the Twins in this one as they will be facing a struggling Angels team that is just 1-8 in its last 9 games and will have a struggling Grayson Rodriguez on the bump with his 8.06 ERA and 1.83 WHIP. Zebby Matthews has a 1.16 WHIP for the Twins and has been very good at home with a 2.08 ERA, while the Twins have been much better against righties in the month of July and in far better form, with a 7-3 record in their last 10 games. Take the Twins to win at home.
