The New York Yankees (NEY) will take on the Houston Astros (HAS) in the final game of their three-game series during the MLB regular season. The game will be played at the Yankee Stadium and will begin at 10:35 PM IST on Thursday, May 6. With just hours left for the game, here's a look at the NEY vs HAS Dream11 prediction, top picks and team for the same. 

NEY vs HAS preview 

The New York Yankees have been at their dominant best thrashing the Houston Astros in both their previous matchups leading up the series finale. The Bombers registered a 7-3 win in game one while following it up with a 6-3 win in game two. With Gerrit Cole set to resume pitching duties, expect the Yankees to continue their run, as they look to leapfrog the Boston Red Sox in the AL East standings. New York are 1.5 games behind the Red Sox, and win on Thursday will improve their prospects greatly in achieving it. 

As for Houston, the Astros are crumbling with MLB fans giving them a hard time on their travels. Houston have lost five of their last games, with three of them coming straight, which has seen them, slip to three games behind AL West leaders Oakland Athletics. Lance McCullers Jr is set to pitch on Thursday, and the Astros will hope to bag a consolation win at the Bronx.
