Arizona Cardinals vs. San Francisco 49ers Preview, Prediction Odds | NFL Week 5

cardinals

The 1-3 Arizona Cardinals travel to San Francisco to take on the 2-2 49ers in a big NFC West matchup in Week 5. Arizona is off to a disappointing start this season and none more evident than last week’s home loss to the Commanders. Arizona lost 42-14 as a 3.5-point favorite and never was able to exploit a very beatable Commander’s secondary.

San Francisco bounced back from their Week 3 defeat to the Vikings with a strong 30-13 home win against the New England Patriots. Divisional battles are always tough-fought games and we expect the same in this week five clash.

Key Stats

Arizona Cardinals

The sharps are backing the Cardinals, the opening line has dropped from 9.5 down to the current 7.5 with a majority of the spread bets being on the 49ers. We find the reverse line movement we look for every week. Arizona comes in 2-2 ATS and their games have been close most of the season. The Cardinals are 3-2 ATS last five and 6-4 ATS last ten as an underdog. By the time kickoff rolls around Vegas will likely need Arizona to cover, so this is a nice spot to fade the public in the late afternoon slate. Arizona is also a play we are using in our NFL week five parlay.

San Francisco 49ers

San Francisco is 2-2 SU and 2-2 ATS this season with an average margin of victory of five points per game. Therefore, the 49ers laying that many points are a bit too much. The 49ers are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 home games, the last 10 as a favorite, and the last 10 games overall. Finally, San Francisco is 4-6 SU in their last 10 home games versus Arizona. We expect a much closer game than expected and we see evidence of that with the line drop. The 7.5-point spread is the underdog number that we talked about in our wagering series.

Prediction

San Francisco has beaten the Cardinals four straight times and by the time kickoff rolls around Vegas will likely need Arizona to cover. However, if betting were as easy as playing the favorites the Vegas books would be bankrupt. We feel this is a nice spot to fade the public in the late afternoon slate. The Cardinal’s average score margin is 24-26.5 and as previously stated, they are 3-2 ATS in the last five and 6-4 ATS last ten as an underdog. We will take the Arizona Cardinals and the points in this week’s NFC West divisional battle.

Final Pick: Arizona Cardinals +7.5
