Broncos at Raiders betting lines, odds, ATS pick: Low-scoring game expected Monday night

Broncos at Raiders betting lines, odds, ATS pick: Low-scoring game expected Monday night

Denver's playoff hopes came to an end after losing at home to the Browns last week. Meanwhile, the Raiders are playing for 2019 after a disappointing first-season under head coach Jon Gruden. Denver is a field-goal favorite on the road with the total 43.

Two teams just playing out the season will meet on Christmas Eve night when the Broncos (6-8) travel to Oakland to take on the Raiders (3-11). Denver's playoff hopes came to an end after losing at home to the Browns last week. Meanwhile, the Raiders are playing for 2019 after a disappointing first-season under head coach Jon Gruden. Denver is a field-goal favorite on the road with the total 42.5. The Raiders are just 5-9 ATS, despite being an underdog in 12 of 14 games. The Broncos are a slightly better 6-7-1. After going on a 6-1 ATS run, Denver has now dropped two straight SU and against the number. If you like to bet the UNDER, the Broncos are your team. Denver is 3-10-1 to the UNDER this season. The UNDER has cashed in six straight Broncos games and that trend could continue Monday night with poor weather expected. The last four meetings between the two teams has gone UNDER the total. <a href="https://twitter.com/PGutierrezESPN/status/1077331488339705857" class="embedly-card" data-card-width="100%" data-card-controls="0">Embedded content: https://twitter.com/PGutierrezESPN/status/1077331488339705857</a> These two teams met back in Week 2 with the Broncos winning 20-19 at home on a last second field goal by Brandon McManus. The Raiders covered that game as a 5.5-point underdog and the game went UNDER 44. __More NFL:__ [Week 16 trend plays](https://www.betchicago.com/week-16-nfl-trend-picks-bill-belichick-patriots-bills) ## Broncos at Raiders betting lines __Point Spread:__ Broncos -2.5 __Total:__ 42.5 __Line movement:__ The line moved from Broncos -2.5 to the important betting number of -3 on Friday. Three was the consensus number of all the major sportsbooks in New Jersey and Las Vegas. The total ranged from 43 to 44, depending on the book early in the week. Most places were down to 42.5 on Saturday evening with rain and wind expected. ## Broncos betting overview __SU record:__ 6-8 __ATS record:__ 6-7-1 __O/U record:__ 3-10-1 The Broncos haven't been as strong at home as in years' past. Denver is just 3-4 SU and 3-3-1 ATS at Mile High Stadium. The Broncos have been a short road favorite three times this year, going 2-1 SU and ATS in that spot. The Broncos should be able to exploit an Oakland rush defense allowing 146.4 yards per game and 4.8 yards per rush. Undrafted rookie Phillip Lindsay has been quite a find for Denver with 991 rushing yards and 10 total touchdowns. Lindsay is averaging 5.4 yards per carry on the season. The once feared Broncos pass defense has been in a giving mood this season. Denver ranks a surprising 26th in the NFL against the pass, allowing 258 yards per game. That could be a factor Monday because throwing the ball is really the only thing the Raiders do semi-well. Oakland is 14th in passing offense at 245 yards per game. ## Raiders betting overview __SU record:__ 3-11 __ATS record:__ 5-9 __O/U record:__ 6-7-1 The Raiders have covered two of their last three games, although they've been double-digit underdogs both times. Oakland has played well though in its last two home games, defeating the Steelers 24-21 as a 10.5-point underdog and losing to the Chiefs 40-33 as a 14-point dog. The Raiders come in with only three wins, so as you might expect, they aren't good in many areas. Oakland ranks 26th in total defense, last in scoring defense, 23rd in total offense and 29th in scoring offense. The Raiders are 26th in rushing offense and dead last stopping the run. Other than that, the Raiders are in good shape. __Play and Win:__ [Sign up for our free contests](https://betchicago.chalkline.com/) ## Broncos at Raiders trends UNDER is 4-0 in the last four meetings. Favorite is 10-2-1 ATS in their last 13 meetings. Home team is 4-1 ATS in their last five meetings. ## Broncos at Raiders pick The Broncos were eliminated from the playoffs last week and some players were reportedly upset that Vance Joseph settled for a field goal late in the game instead of going for it on 4th-and-short. Now Denver must travel to Oakland on Christmas Eve. It's a perfect spot for a letdown. We'll call for the underdog to cover in a low-scoring game.
