[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Green Bay Packers welcome the Baltimore Ravens to Lambeau Field for Week 3 of the preseason Saturday. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Ravens vs. Packers odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Ravens bounced back from their preseason-opening loss — 16-13 to the visiting Philadelphia Eagles Aug. 9 — with a 13-12 win over the Atlanta Falcons in Baltimore Aug. 17. Despite not playing their starters, they average 13 points per game, with QB Josh Johnson impressing as a backup QB, completing 11 of 11 passes for 120 yards and a touchdown. RB Emory Jones also shined, but the run game remains inconsistent. Defensively, the Ravens are strong, allowing 14 points per game. Undrafted rookie LB Yvandy Rigby leads with 14 tackles. They’ll aim to finish the preseason on a high note Saturday.

The Packers aim to bounce back from a 27-2 blowout loss at the Denver Broncos Sunday and finish the preseason with a winning record. They’re averaging 12.5 points, 150 passing yards, and 121.5 rushing yards per game. The status of Green Bay’s starters remains uncertain, with coach Matt LaFleur weighing options. The offense struggled without starters, with QB Sean Clifford and  QB Michael Pratt combining for minimal passing yards. RB Emanuel Wilson has been a bright spot, rushing for 108 yards and a touchdown. Defensively, the Packers need to tighten up, allowing 18.5 points per game.

Ravens at Packers picks and predictions

Prediction

Ravens 17, Packers 13

Moneyline

BET RAVENS (+135).

The Ravens have shown resilience with a 12-4 SU record in their last 16 games dating back to last season, even though they’re 1-4 ATS in their last 5. While Green Bay has been strong at home, winning 6 of its last 8 and 4 of its last 5 at Lambeau Field, Baltimore’s strategic edge will help it prevail. Johnson’s offensive efficiency will outmatch the Packers, especially with the Ravens defense pressuring Clifford into mistakes. Given the trends and Baltimore’s ability to win close games, the Ravens are the pick to come out on top in this matchup.

Against the spread

Betting the spread? Preseason games are too volatile to get reasonable trends. Neither team will show all its schemes on offense or defense. Starters will only play a portion of the game, if at all.

PASS.

Over/Under

Both the Packers and Ravens have been leaning toward lower-scoring games, with Green Bay going Under in 4 of its last 5. With starters sitting out and preseason games usually not being shootouts, don’t expect a ton of points here. It’s likely to be more about strategy than fireworks on the scoreboard. Given the trends, betting the Under on total points feels like the safer move in this one.

BET UNDER 33.5 (-110).
