The Miami Dolphins and Detroit Lions face off on Sunday in an NFL showdown at Ford Field in Detroit. When these two teams faced off in 2018 it was the Lions that secured the 32-21 victory.
Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins come into this game with a 4-3 record overall and they are coming off a big win the last game. The Dolphins defense was impressive giving up only 10 points to the Pittsburgh Steelers and that led to the six point victory.
There were zero points scored in the 3rd and 4th quarter of that game, and the offense is going to need to be better here. Tua Tagovailoa completed 21 of his 35 passes for 261 yards, one touchdown and zero interceptions.
The Dolphins are averaging 21 points per game while their defense is giving up 23.57 goals per game. The offense is ranked 19th in the league, but could be improved upon here.
Detroit Lions
On the other side of this matchup is the Detroit Lions who sit with a 1-5 record overall and they are coming off another disappointing loss. Early in the season the offense was good, but they are struggling a bit and in the last game against the Cowboys they only scored six points.
Jared Goff completed 21 of his 26 passes for 228 yards, zero touchdowns, and two interceptions. Jamal Williams finished with 15 carries for 79 yards. D’Andre Swift missed the last game and it’s unclear if he’s going to be able to go in this game.
The Lions are averaging 24.3 points while their defense is giving up 32.3 points per game. In this game the defense needs to be strong early.

The Dolphins struggled to move the ball in the last game, and the Lions defense looked better in the last game until the 4th quarter. The trends point towards the under, and I expect this game is going to be lower scoring. Look for a 17-10 or 13-10 game and this game is going to stay under the total. Back the under to cash.
