By ATSSportsline.com
WASHINGTON, D.C. (ATS Consultants) – Will tonight’s “Monday Night Football” matchup be high-scoring when the Redskins host the Seahawks at 8:30PM ET?
ODDS: According to oddsmakers from online sports book Bovada.lv, the Seahawks are 7-point road favorites versus the Redskins while the over/under total is currently sitting at 45.5 points. As of this writing, 74% of the betting public is currently on the visiting team for tonight’s matchup.
LINE MOVEMENT: The Seahawks opened as 7-point favorites and that’s where the line currently sits although some books listed Seattle as a 7.5-point favorite at various times over the last week. The total, meanwhile, opened at 45.5 and that’s where it currently sits at most books although some places list the over/under at 46.
SEASON RECORDS: Seattle enters play with a 2-1 record and is 2-1 against the spread, with its lone loss and failed cover coming on the road as a 6.5-point favorite versus the Chargers in Week 2. Washington, meanwhile, is 1-3 straight up and 2-2 at the betting window, while the over is a combined 5-2 in these teams’ games this season.
NFL FREE PICK: Take the over. According to latest NFL trends, the over is 4-1 in the lsat five meetings between these two teams in Washington and 8-3 in the Seahawks’ last 11 games in Week 5. The over is also 5-0-1 in the Redskins’ last six games after allowing more than 150 yards rushing in their previous game, 5-1 in their last six games versus a team with a winning record and 5-1 in their last six games after allowing more than 30 points in their previous game. Washington’s defense has had issues and turnovers were a massive problem for quarterback Kirk Cousins last week versus New York. If he turns the ball over tonight like he did last Thursday than the over should hit easily as Seattle capitalizes on great field position and golden opportunities.
