LiontipsHouston Astros vs Tampa Bay Rays. Prediction and Betting Tips for MLB 2022 (October 2, 2022).
Command Analysis
Houston Astros remain the leaders of the American League, but New York Yankees have almost caught up with them. Recently, the team has been experiencing more and more difficulties, for instance, the Astros suffered two defeats to Baltimore Orioles (0:2 and 0:6) and got crushed by Arizona Diamondbacks (2:5). Houston were the favorites in the opening game against the Rays but couldn't overcome their visitors (3:7).
Tampa Bay Rays aren't in excellent shape, either. Before their visit to Houston, the Rays delivered disappointing results on a road trip to Cleveland. After a narrow win in the first game (6:5), Tampa lost twice with the same score of 1:2. The Rays' confident victory over the Astros in the previous game was completely unexpected (7:3).

Tip and bets
Tampa Bay Rays had a great game against Houston last night, but we doubt they can repeat that feat and crush the hosts again. The Rays rarely win games against clear favorites, and the Astros should be able to recover from the loss. We will be backing the home team in the upcoming game.
