It’s win-and-in for both teams this week. For the Los Angeles Chargers, they need a win or a tie to get in. Las Vegas has a couple more options, but a win is the first thing on the Raiders’ mind. 

The Raiders lost the first matchup to the Chargers on Monday Night Football, but with a playoff spot on the line, can they get revenge?

Here are the odds for their matchup via WynnBET.

Chargers vs. Raiders Prediction and Pick

Matt De Saro went over this game earlier in the week, and is siding with the Raiders to pull off the upset. 

I know that the spread is thin at three points, but I don’t trust the Chargers to cover. Their defense is just too much of a liability for me to take a chance on here. L.A.’s defense ranks 26th in the NFL in terms of scoring defense at 26.5 PPG. They cough up more than 135 yards per game on the ground alone and 361 total yards per game. The Chargers will be able to score against the Raiders, but it is going to be hard to keep pace with Derek Carr and Josh Jacobs. 

Los Angeles won the first matchup easily, and I think they'll do it again. Las Vegas hasn't been explosive on offense since Thanksgiving and that won't be good against the Chargers.

Pick: Chargers -3 (-110)
