Seattle Seahawks @ SF 49ers u47
Seattle Seahawks +6 @ SF 49ers
The last undefeated team in the NFL will host one of the hottest squads in the League in a showdown between the top two NFC West teams. History suggests backing the UNDER and the road cover. We are positioning accordingly.
The 8-0 San Francisco 49ers are slated as six point favorites versus the 7-2 Seattle Seahawks. The total is set at 47.
Since 2003, evening divisional games featuring above average betting totals have been fertile ground for UNDER-backers. In primetime games with totals of at least 45 points that pit teams from the same division against each other, the UNDER is 172-108 (61%).
In higher total divisional action decided exclusively on Monday night, the UNDER is 66-36.
Consistently with these findings, our friends at The Action Network have observed that, in the back half of the season, above average betting totals that move higher from open to close have been friendly to UNDER bettors.
Regarding the ATS outcome, we have noted in the past the profitability of fading teams, such as the Niners, on the rare eight-game SU win streak.
This system fell the mighty Patriots last week, and we expect a similar ATS outcome for the Niners tonight.
Happy betting!!
