NFL Week 13 Betting Odds Preview

The New Orleans Saints will look to extend their eight-game winning streak and all but lock up the NFC South division this week when they face the Atlanta Falcons.

At Bovada Sportsbook, the Saints are 3-point road favorites. Last week the Saints won their eighth straight with a 31-3 win over the short-handed Denver Broncos as a 17-point favorite. New Orleans has won five straight against the spread and is 5-3 ATS during the winning streak. As a road favorite, the Saints are 9-1 SU and 7-3 ATS in their last 10.

The Falcons surprised the Las Vegas Raiders last week in a 43-6 blowout win as 3.5-point underdogs. Atlanta has been a profitable UNDER play for totals bettors lately at 4-1 UNDER in their last five and 6-2 UNDER in their last eight. As an underdog, the Falcons are 9-3 ATS in their last 12.

In Week 11, the Saints defeated the Falcons 24-9 as a 3.5-point home favorite. The Saints are 5-1 straight up and ATS in their last six against Atlanta.

Bears have gone UNDER in 5 of last 6 at home

In the NFC North this week, cellar-dwellers meet up when the Chicago Bears host the Detroit Lions as a 3-point favorite.

Chicago has lost five straight but is 4-1 ATS. At home, the Bears are a disappointing 2-4 SU and ATS in their last six, and for totals bettors they’re 5-1 UNDER in those six games.

Detroit is 1-4 SU and ATS in its last five following last week’s 41-25 loss to the Houston Texans as 3-point underdogs. That loss and the Lions’ record cost their head coach and general manager their jobs this week. Against divisional opponents, the Lions have lost nine straight while going 3-6 ATS.

In Week 1, Chicago defeated Detroit 27-23 as a 2.5-point underdog. The Bears have won five straight against the Lions at 4-1 ATS, and they’re 6-2-1 ATS in their last nine matchups.

The Colts are coming off a 45-26 loss to the Tennessee Titans as a 3-point favorite. The Colts are 6-1 OVER in their last seven games, and as a road favorite they’ve won three in a row SU and ATS.

Houston has won three straight ATS after crushing Detroit 41-25 as a 3-point favorite on Thanksgiving. As a home underdog, the Texans are 2-5 SU and ATS in their last seven.

The Colts and Texans split the season series last year, but Indianapolis was 2-0 ATS. The Colts have won four straight against the Texans ATS and six of their last seven.
