The Rangers currently stand at -105 and are favored over the White Sox who are at -104. But, there are many factors that could affect the outcome of tonight’s game. Let’s take a deeper dive into the game and see who has the edge.
Pitching Matchup
The pitching matchup for tonight’s game is Martin Perez for the Rangers and Michael Kopech for the White Sox. Perez currently has a 3-5 record with an ERA of 4.71 while Kopech has 0-0 record with an ERA of 0.00.

Recent Performance
The White Sox and Rangers played against each other just yesterday with the White Sox winning by a score of 7-6 with odds of +141. The run total for that game was set at 8.5 and went over by 4.5 runs. In their last 10 games, the Rangers have won four times while the White Sox have won three of their last 10 games. Both teams have been struggling recently, so it’s difficult to predict who will come out on top.
Win Trends
But let’s take a closer look. The Rangers have won four out of their last 10 games which puts them ahead of the White Sox who have only won three out of their last 10 games. This could give the Rangers the slight edge needed to win tonight’s game.
Totals Trends
When it comes to totals trends, the Rangers have gone over in five of their last 10 games while staying under in three of their last 10. The White Sox, on the other hand, have stayed under in five of their last 10 games and gone over in only three of them. This could possibly mean that the Rangers are more likely to go over the 9.5 run total tonight.
