Atlanta travel to New York in week eleven of the NFL season looking to get back to winning ways after losing three of their last four games, including their defeat to Carolina last week which saw them fall to 5-4. New York have even more to worry about having lost their last four in a row after winning their opening five games and will look to stop the rot after losing last week at home to the San Diego Chargers.
New York are favourites for the game on the money line at -275 (bet $275 to win $100 profit), leaving the visiting Falcons as underdogs at +260 (bet $100 to win $260 profit). Betting so far on the money line has seen 93% of money behind the Giants, despite their poor form.
The point spread for the game has been set at 6.5 points, making the Giants favourites at -6.5 points and giving the Falcons a handicap of +6.5. In betting so far against the spread the Giants have again been heavily favoured, with 87% of money backing them to cover the spot.
The Falcons have been better against the spread so far this season than they have on the field, covering at 6-3 while winning at only 5-4. New York, however, have been poor against the spread, covering at only 3-6 while winning at 5-4 after failing to cover in every defeat and two of their victories.
The Over/Under for the game is set at 46 points and so far 78% of money has backed the Over. This seems reasonable as the two teams have recorded a combined total of twelve Overs in their eighteen decisions this season.
Due to their poor forms of late, neither team is among the favourites to win the Super Bowl this year, but the Giants are seen as the more likely of the teams, priced at 33/1 with the Falcons at 80/1.
