KCR vs BRS Dream11 Prediction | MLB, Major League Baseball | Kansas City Royals vs Boston Red Sox, 20 June

KCR vs BRS Dream11 Match Prediction: Kansas City Royals finally managed to taste a win after snapping their six-game losing run with a 5-3 win over the in-form Boston Red Sox. The Royals will have to come good once again as they play the Red Sox at the Kauffman Stadium on early Sunday morning (IST).
It was the sort of day where the Red Sox couldn’t get going at all. The pitchers looked out of ideas at times, while the batsmen failed to count when the runs were needed. But it doesn’t hide the fact that the Red Sox are amongst the most classy teams in MLB this season.

Kansas City Royals know they will have to be more or less the same they were during their 5-3 win over the Boston Red Sox in the last match. They can be, for sure, but can the Red Sox be a similar lethargic team we saw during that defeat? No, we don’t think so. The Red Sox are too good a team not to learn a hard lesson from the last match and back them to win this match.
