Saints vs. Ravens: Odds, Spread, Over/Under and Prediction for NFL Preseason Game 1

The Saints and the Ravens have gone through a lot this offseason. New Orleans is still trying to figure out its quarterback situation and how to mend its relationship with Michael Thomas. The Ravens saw Lamar Jackson contract COVID-19 for a second time and have seen their wide receivers drop like flies in camp.

Saturday will be the first time both teams suit up for preseason action and finally get to the football aspect of the season. For the Saints, they'll hope to find some more clarity on who will be their starter. For the Ravens, getting out of the game healthy would suffice. 

Here are the odds for their matchup on Saturday at 7:00 p.m. EST via WynnBET.

Saints vs. Ravens Betting Trends

Both of these coaches are some of the best in the league when it comes to covering the spread, with both of their records over 50%. The main thing to watch is the under. In preseason play, both Sean Payton and John Harbaugh hit the under more often than the over. Expect this to be a low-scoring game, especially with both teams trying to figure out where their depth is coming from. 

Saints vs. Ravens Prediction and Pick

I’m taking the Ravens to not only beat the Saints, but also cover. The Ravens have a lot of issues at wide receiver, but they haven’t relied on wide receiver depth for wins since Jackson has become the quarterback. 

The odds point to Jameis Winston being the starter, which means Taysom Hill will likely finish the game. Hill’s style -- power run, methodical offense -- is exactly what the Ravens do. This game is set to play out in a Baltimore-style game so I’m rolling with John Harbaugh.
