Giants at Ravens: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Ravens 34, Giants 10
Money line (?)
The Ravens are likely going to blow out the Giants, but their -600 ML price is too steep for such little return. AVOID.
Against the spread (?)
Seeing as we’re picking the Ravens to win by 24 points, laying10.5 points isn’t that big a stretch despite the fact the Giants have covered most of their big spreads this season. The Ravens are hitting their stride offensively. Take the RAVENS -10.5 (-110).
Over/Under (?)
The O/U 43.5 seems low. This is a difficult bet because the Giants could have trouble doing their part and scoring the 10 points that might be necessary to hit the Over. The Ravens will come close to hitting the Over themselves, so, with some hesitation, take the OVER 43.5 (-110).
