Seahawks at Giants Betting Odds
- Point Spread
- Giants: -1.5 (-130)
- Seahawks: +1.5 (-110)
Contrary to expectations, the Seahawks are the underdogs in this matchup. While traveling east can pose challenges, Seattle has an extra day and a half to recover from jet lag. On the other hand, the Giants have struggled on both offense and defense this season.
Considering these factors, the Seahawks could be a valuable bet as the road underdogs on Monday night.
- Moneyline
- Giants: -130
- Seahawks: +110
The Giants may have an opportunity to exploit Seattle’s pass defense, as previous opponents have done. However, Seattle’s defense has been strong against the run, which could pose a challenge for the Giants. While caution is advised when betting on the Giants, if you choose to do so, consider the moneyline rather than laying any chalk.
- Point Total
- Over 47: -110
- Under 47: -110
Based on the performance of both teams as well as Seattle’s defensive struggles against the pass, a high-scoring game is anticipated. While the point spread may be of more interest, if you prefer betting on the total points, consider placing your bet on the over 47 points.
Analysis
Despite being the underdogs, the better team in this matchup appears to be the Seahawks. However, being on the road against a desperate big market team adds some unpredictability to the game. Keep an eye on the potential return of Giants’ player Saquon Barkley, as it may have an impact on the outcome. Additionally, the Seahawks’ pass defense has struggled this season, which could allow Giants’ quarterback Daniel Jones to have a strong game.
Prediction
While neither Geno Smith nor Daniel Jones are among the top quarterbacks in the league, both are likely to thrive against their opponent’s secondaries. A high-scoring game with a final score of 28-24 is predicted, making it difficult to determine the winner. However, considering the Seahawks’ overall strength, a shootout is expected.
Our pick for this game is over 47 points, offering a favorable betting opportunity.
