Indianapolis Colts underdogs at home to Baltimore Ravens in Week 9

The Baltimore Ravens are the betting favorites in their Week 9 road game at the Indianapolis Colts.

The Baltimore Ravens (5-2) travel to meet the Indianapolis Colts (5-2) Sunday in Week 9 at 1 p.m. ET at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Below, we take a look at the early betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.

The Ravens are looking to rebound after suffering a 28-24 setback at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers. While the Ravens have pushed past each of the teams they’re supposed to beat with relative ease, Baltimore has dropped marquee matchups against the unbeaten Steelers and the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3 (34-20). The teams Baltimore has beaten are a combined 13-23-2 SU – a winning percentage of .361. The two teams Baltimore has fallen to are a combined 14-1 – a winning percentage of .933. After opening 2-0 ATS, the Ravens are just 1-4 ATS in the previous five. The Under hit in Baltimore’s first three, but the Over is 3-1 across its past four.

The Colts rolled up an impressive 41-21 road victory at the Detroit Lions to cover a 3.5-point number, snapping and 0-2 ATS slide. Indianapolis has enjoyed a little home cooking this season, going 3-0 SU/2-1 ATS, with its lone non-cover a 31-27 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals last time it took the field at Lucas Oil Stadium in Week 6. The Colts are allowing just 15.0 PPG in three games on their home field, too, and they’re fifth in the NFL overall with 19.4 PPG allowed. Indy ranks third in the league in total yards allowed (294.3), sixth in passing yards allowed (213.6), while checking in second in rushing yards (79.9) per contest.

Steelers at Ravens game notes

  • The Steelers have brought the Steel Curtain Defense. They rank No. 1 in total yards (286.3), sixth in passing yards (217.5), second in rushing yards (68.8) and sixth in points allowed (19.7) per game.
  • Baltimore is coming off its bye. The Ravens won 30-28 at the Philadelphia Eagles before the break but failed to cover a 10.5-point number. They’re 1-3 ATS in their past four games.
  • The Ravens are 2-0 straight up and ATS inside the division, with wins over the Cincinnati Bengals and Cleveland Browns at M&T Bank Stadium. They have covered five in a row inside the division, and they’re 7-3-1 ATS in the past 11 vs. Pittsburgh.

Steelers at Ravens: Odds, prediction, betting lines and picks

Prediction

Ravens 23, Steelers 20

Money line (?)

All good things must come to an end, and with that being said, take the RAVENS (-176) on the money line to bump the Steelers (+155) from the ranks of the unbeaten. They swept the Steelers last season, although the Week 17 game did not include some starters due to locked-in playoff seeding, etc.

Seven of the past nine meetings, not including Week 17 of last season, have been one-score games in this series.

Against the spread (?)

The STEELERS +4 (-110) catching four points in this one might be a bit surprising to some, and they’re worth taking as the road dogs. Pittsburgh is 8-2 ATS in its last 10 as a road underdog, and 5-2 ATS in the previous seven against teams with a winning record. The road team is also 5-2 ATS in the past seven meetings, and the underdog is 18-7-3 ATS in the past 28 in the series.

Over/Under (?)

The UNDER 45.5 (-106) is a bit risky, especially in these high-scoring days of the NFL. But play the Under lightly, as defense should rule the day here. We have seen the Under cash in five of the past six meetings in Baltimore, and both teams are strong defensively this season.
