Los Angeles Dodgers at Oakland Athletics Predictions & Tips

Los Angeles are tipped to make a winning start to this series.

The Dodgers have been on a rough run recently, but they have dominated Oakland in recent seasons and starter Gavin Stone has been largely solid in 2024.

  • LA Dodgers have won 7 of the last 9 meetings with Oakland
  • All 7 of those wins have seen LA cover a -1.5 Run Line
  • The Over has cashed in each of the last 3 meetings
  • The Over has hit in 5 of Los Angeles' last 7 games

Head To Head

  • This is the first meeting between the two teams this season

Los Angeles Dodgers Form

Los Angeles enter this series still leading the NL West, but in poor form having now lost five of their last seven games.

The Dodgers went into the All-Star break on the back of a couple of losses, but bounced back when they returned to action, reeling off five consecutive wins.

They swept Boston at home courtesy of 4-1, 7-6 and 9-6 victories, and they beat San Francisco 3-2 and 5-2 before responding to an 8-3 defeat with a 6-4 win in the series finale.

Los Angeles failed to build on that though as they lost 5-0 and 7-6 in Houston, avoiding being swept with a 6-2 victory in the final meeting.

The Dodgers did not avoid that fate in San Diego though, as they were beaten 6-5 and 8-1 by the Padres.

Oakland Athletics Form

Oakland come into this series on the back of a loss, but having enjoyed a solid recent run with nine wins in 13 games.

The Athletics won their final game before the All-Star break, beating Philadelphia 13-3 on the road, and they made a wining return to action with 13-3 and 8-2 home wins over the Los Angeles Angels.

They dropped the last game of that series, 8-5, but responded with 4-0 and 8-2 successes against Houston, before missing out on a sweep due to an 8-1 loss.

Oakland rebounded immediately with 6-5, 5-4 and 3-1 wins at the Los Angeles Angels, but they again missed out on sweeping an opponent as they lost the final meeting 8-6.

The Athletics then moved on to San Francisco where they split the series with the Giants, winning 5-2 and losing 1-0.

Verdict

Los Angeles have had a knack for winning and covering against Oakland in recent seasons, so despite their recent struggles we are expecting more of the same here.
