This week we will focus on a match between two teams that have been performing almost at par in the recent past - the White Sox vs. the Indians, which is set to go down on August 1 at the Guaranteed Rate Field (Chicago), home to the Chicago White Sox. The White Sox are at position seven with a winning percentage (Pct) of 0.583, while the Indians are at position 15 with a winning percentage (Pct) of 0.505.

The White Sox have been one of the best teams this season. They have a fantastic record of 60 wins from 103 matches. Looking at White Sox's last ten games, it has managed to win just four matches, which doesn’t quite reflect the team’s quality this season.

All four games have been by a margin of 2 or more runs. The White Sox also tend to lose with two or more runs in cases where they lose. They have lost four of their ten most recent games by a margin of 3 or more runs.

The Indians have been one of the most unpredictable teams this season. They manage to outdo some of the best teams at their best, as seen recently when they beat the Tampa Ray 3 - 2. At their worst, it’s the complete opposite. They are at position 15 in the MLB rankings, having won 50 of their 99 matches. They have got a winning percentage (Pct) of 0.505. These stats clearly show that they’ll walk into this clash with equal chances of winning.

These teams have met 11 times (in the MLB) in 2021, with the White Sox managing to emerge, winners five times. The total runs have been 8+ in four of those matches. In nine matches, either team has won or lost by a margin of 2 or more runs.
