New York Giants +3
The Las Vegas Raiders will travel to MetLife Stadium to take on the New York Giants and I’m loving the Giants at home getting points in this one.
Las Vegas comes into this game riding a 2-game winning streak, however, they are once again dealing with off-field issues and no longer have their top receiver in Henry Ruggs III who was released earlier this week. Las Vegas has been decent on the offensive end, however, the defense has had some issues as they are allowing opponents to average 23.7 ppg.
New York comes into this game with just a 2-6 record, however, they were impressive in a 25-3 win against Carolina two weeks ago and gave Kansas City all they could handle on the road last week in a 20-17 loss. New York has battled injuries on the offensive end and won’t have Sterling Shepard & Saquon Barkley, however, they do have a healthy Daniel Jones who I think will have some success against the Raiders defense in this one.
The Raiders are 1-4 ATS vs. a team with a losing record and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a losing home record. The Giants are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 November games 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games after allowing less than 90 yards rushing in their previous game.
Making the trip across country is always tough and as between the fact that I like how the Giants defense has looked as of late and that I think the Raiders come out a bit flat in this one, I think the Giants have a good chance to pull off the upset in this one and at worse, cover with the points. Good Luck!
