The Green Bay Packers are entering this game coming off an improbable, 16-13 win over the Philadelphia Eagles despite playing a brand of offensive football that almost made quarterback Brett Favre forget his team won the contest.
The New York Giants are entering this matchup coming off a high-scoring 45-35 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, that was a bit more lopsided than the score indicates. Even worse, the Giants are now without starting quarterback Eli Manning for approximately one month after Manning injured his throwing shoulder late in last week’s game.
Here is a look at tonight’s key trends followed by my Free Football Betting Pick:
Key Packers Trends
The Packers are 6-1-1 ATS in their last eight vs. NFC.
The Packers are 4-1 ATS in their last five games on Grass.
The Packers are 4-1-1 ATS in their last six games as a road underdog.
Key Giants Trends
The Giants are 4-0-1 ATS in their last five games after scoring more than 30 points in their previous game.
The Giants are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games in Week 2.
The Giants are 10-2-2 ATS in their last 14 games after allowing more than 250 yards passing in their previous game.
Key Totals Trends
The Under is 5-0 in Packers last five games following a S.U. win.
The Under is 4-0 in Packers last four games on Grass.
The Under is 5-0 in Giants last five games after scoring more than 30 points in their previous game.
The Under is 5-1 in Giants last six games as a home favorite of 0.5-3.0.
Key Head-to-Head Trends
None Available
Analysis: Though the Giants (1-0 ATS, 0-1 O/U), are going to be desperate to win their home opener, I believe the task will be too tall without Manning. The Dallas Cowboys and Tony Romo literally shredded the Giants’ defensive secondary and Favre should have his chances. Take the Pack to win outright.
