Raiders Seek Rare Consecutive Wins in Matchup with Woeful Giants

The Oakland Raiders will be looking to post consecutive SU wins for the first time since Week 2 when they host the New York Giants on Sunday in an NFL Week 13 matchup at Oakland Alameda Coliseum. The Raiders climbed to 5-6 with last week’s 21-14 win over Denver as 3.5-point home chalk while the Giants stumbled to a 20-10 loss in Washington as 7-point underdogs.

Shark Bites
  • The favored team is 6-0 SU in the last six games in this matchup.
  • The Raiders are 11-3 SU in their last 14 games as favorite.
  • The Giants are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games against the AFC.

The Raiders remained in playoff contention with their win over the Broncos, but have emerged as an unreliable bet, going 2-6-1 ATS over their past nine, including a pair of outright losses as home favorites. Oakland has been hampered by an underachieving offense that has tallied 10 or fewer points on three occasions, including a 33-8 loss to New England as 7-point underdogs, and has covered just twice in seven home games while favored by 7 or more points.

The 2-9 Giants have also struggled offensively, posting just 22 total points over the past two weeks, and have lost by a margin of 10 or more points in their past three road dates, while averaging just 13.7 points per game in those contests. New York has also enjoyed little success against AFC opponents, going 7-25 SU in its past 32.

Sunday’s matchup marks the Giants’ first visit to Oakland since 2005. New York has taken three straight from the Raiders, all as betting chalk, but has covered just once during that stretch, while the OVER has prevailed in three straight.
