Detroit hasn't won since 1984, while the Giants are looking for their second World Series title in three seasons.
The World Series odds, however, favor the Tigers as they opened as -175 series favorites at online sportsbooks such as Sportsbook.
The Giants, who rallied from 3-1 down to beat St. Louis, are +155 underdogs.
Triple Crown Sportsbook Miguel Cabrera is the early World Series MVP odds favorite, followed closely by Giants catcher Buster Posey. Cabrera was 5/1 at Sportsbook while Posey was 13/2.
As with all major sporting events, prop odds add plenty of spice and wagering product to the action.
You can wager on the exact series result (4-1 Detroit is the favorite position) and over-under on the number of games.
