Based on the facts, here’s a Las Vegas Raiders-Miami Dolphins football prediction:
With a 7.5-point spread, the Dolphins are poised to outplay the Raiders. Their recent triumph against the LA Rams, a team of similar caliber, has undoubtedly boosted their confidence. And with only one victory in four home games this season, there’s certainly room for improvement.
Despite a challenging 2-7 season, the Raiders have shown resilience. After a tough loss to Cincinnati, they took a week to regroup and strategize. The Raiders (4-5) have a good track record against the spread, outperforming the Dolphins (3-6).
Looking at the past, Miami has a strong 8-2 straight-up record in their previous ten games against Las Vegas. However, the Raiders (6-3-1) have a better spread record in these matches. The total has exceeded in 8 of 10 games, indicating a potential for high-scoring action.
Based on current form and historical statistics, the game may be closer than the spread predicts. Although the Raiders may cover the spread, the Dolphins will likely win. The over seems appealing total of 44.5 and their history of high-scoring games. Given both clubs’ poor seasons, a more cautious bet may be wise.
Given the current form and historical statistics, a bet on the total falling under 46 points is a good option.
