What’s on the table today?: Monday Night Football (Betting Preview)
Tonight Week 8 concludes as the New York Giants (2-5 SU, 3-4 ATS) visit the Kansas City Chiefs (3-4 SU, 2-5 ATS). The Chiefs were favored to win the Super Bowl coming into the season but are in serious danger of missing the playoffs. They lead the league in turnovers with 17, they are last in yards per play on defense at 6.6 and they have covered just three times in their last 18 games. Yet they are 10.5-point favorites this week as they take on a Giants team that was impressive in last week’s 25-3 win over the Panthers.
The Giants will have notable injuries to monitor as star running back Saquon Barkley remains out and wide receivers Kadarius Toney, Kenny Golladay and Sterling Shepard missed last week’s game. The struggling Chiefs may still be a tempting option for survivor players as this is one of the higher spreads on the board. The total is 52.. William Hill Sports Book via VSIN.
- Giants (+10.5) @ Chiefs (-10.5) / total 52.5 (opened at 52)
- Giants moneyline (total game) +400 / 1st half +240
- 1st half total 26.5
- Chiefs moneyline (total game) -550 / 1st half -300
Under is 5-0 in Giants last 5 games after allowing less than 15 points in their previous game.
Under is 7-1 in Giants last 8 vs. a team with a losing record
Under is 4-0 in Chiefs last 4 Monday games.
Under is 5-1 in Chiefs last 6 games following a straight up loss
Giants are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a losing home record
My Prediction: Take the Chiefs (-10.5) and the UNDER 52.5
