Preview

The Baltimore Ravens will host the Miami Dolphins on Sunday at the M&T Bank Stadium. These teams met last season in Miami and the Dolphins took the win 22-10 as +8.5 underdogs but they're 1-4 in the last 5 games playing in Baltimore.

 

Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins were pretty amazing in the first game of the season as they beat the Patriots 20-7. They led 17-0 at halftime and didn't have to work too hard to finish the job. Tua Tagovailoa passed for 270 yards and a touchdown. Tyreek Hill, who was acquired by the Miami Dolphins via trade over the offseason, topped Miami's receivers with eight catches for 94 yards.

The Dolphins defense just needed one contest to demonstrate that it might be among the best in the AFC East. They dominated Sunday's season opener, shutting out the Patriots offense on all but one drive with a defensive touchdown, an interception, and a forced fumble.

 

Baltimore Ravens

The Ravens were also dominants in week 1 beating the Jets 24-9 on the road. Lamar Jackson threw three touchdown passes, including two to Devin Duvernay. He went 17 of 30 for 213 yards, including a TD to Rashod Bateman, and had one interception.

Defensively, this team ranked #20 in the NFL allowing an average of 23.1 points per game last season. Marcus Peters who's one of the best cornerbacks in the league was activated and returned to practice. They played really good in week 1 as they held the Jets to only 9 points but will face a better offensive this time.

 

BETTING TRENDS

The total has gone UNDER in 8 of Miami's last 11 games.

Miami are 9-1 SU in their last 10 games.

Miami are 1-9 ATS in their last 10 games against Baltimore.

The total has gone UNDER in 7 of Baltimore's last 10 games.

Baltimore are 1-6 SU in their last 7 games.

Baltimore are 8-4 SU in their last 12 games at home.

 

Prediction

The Dolphins offense got a big boos with the addition of Tyreek Hill who made 94 yards in 8 receptions but in the last 10 head to head games vs Ravens they have averaged only 12.1 points. The Ravens played great defense against the Jets allowing only 9 points but allowed 390 yards total. I expect a close game as both defenses will prevail and with the under cashing big time for these teams I think that's the best play.

PICK: Under 44.5 (-110)
