Indianapolis Colts -4.5

Over/Under 48

Here is a look at the key head-to-head trends surrounding this important AFC South matchup.

• Over is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings.
• Jaguars are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 meetings in Indianapolis.
• Road team is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 meetings.

Jacksonville 411

• Jaguars are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games.
• Jaguars are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog.
• Jaguars are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 vs. AFC South.

The Jaguars (8-5 SU, 9-4 ATS, 10-3 O/U) is coming off an thrilling 38-31 win over the Oakland Raiders in their Week 14 matchup to cash in against the online sportsbook betting line as a 3.5-point home favorite to move to a perfect 6-0 ATS over their last half-dozen games.

Indianapolis 411

• Colts are 12-2-2 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.
• Colts are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games as a home favorite of 3.5-10.0.
• Colts are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games as a favorite.

The Colts (7-6 SU, 6-6-1 ATS, 8-4-1 O/U) squeaked past a dysfunctional Tennessee team 30-28 in Week 14 but narrowly failed to cover the online sportsbook betting odds as a 3-point home favorite to fall to 0-3 against the online sportsbook betting odds over their last three games.

Prediction: I think this is a really tough call against the online sportsbook ATS spread as the Jaguars have been one of the most opportunistic bunch of overachievers in the league this season and Indianapolis has been hugely disappointing, with both, their ability to run the ball – and stop the run – which brings me to my online sportsbook selection for this matchup.

I am going to advise my BetOnline football betting brethren to play the Over against the online sportsbook O/U Total as these two AFC South division rivals have played Over the total in two straight meetings and five of the last six matchups overall.

The Jags and Colts combined to average 49.4 points per game offensively and a dead-even 50.0 points per game defensively.

The Over is 6-1 in Jacksonville’s last seven games and 9-2 in their last 11 games against their AFC conference counterparts. The Over has also gone 3-0-1 in the Colts’ last four games and 4-1 against the online sportsbook Total in their last five games against their AFC South division rivals.
