4* Free Week 5 NFL Betting Prediction: New England -1.5
The Saints are poised to put forth a strong performance away from home this week, effectively restraining New England.
I’m favoring New England to cover as 1.5-point favorites.
New Orleans are 0-4-1 ATS in their last 5 games, and are 2-5 SU in their last 7 games against New England.
On the over/under, I have the best bet being to take the over at 39.5. This looks like a slam dunk bet for me, as my gut tells me the over will hit as well as our model projecting a combined 45 points.
Considering the current state of both offenses, it should come as no shock that this game is expected to have the lowest total score in Week 5.
So, I’m going to zig while the public zags. The total has gone OVER in 5 of New England’s last 7 games when playing at home against New Orleans.
