Spreading the Love for Lions

The popularity that the Lions are holding in the public spread splits is understandable. Detroit is an NFL-leading 14-5 against the spread this season. As an away team, the Lions are 7-2, covering 77.8% of the time. Detroit is 2-1 as an away underdog.

Meanwhile, the 49ers are dismal at covering as home favorites this season, going 3-6 ATS. That’s the worst mark among NFL playoff teams. San Francisco failed to cover in the NFL Division Round as the 10-point home chalk over Green Bay.

The Lions are 4-1 ATS in their last five games and 8-2 ATS over their past 10 road games. San Francisco is 0-6 ATS in the club’s last six home games and 2-4 ATS overall through the past six games played.

Moneyline Splits Are Split

The people are also sticking with the underdog Lions when it comes to moneyline handle action. Public betting splits are displaying 68% of moneyline splits on the handle are going with Detroit at +275.

At 14-5 straight up when you include playoff games, the Lions are actually a touch better than the 13-5 49ers. As a home team and as the home chalk, San Francisco is 6-3 SU. On the road, Detroit is 6-3 SU, but the Lions are just 1-2 SU as an away underdog.

However, the 49ers are pulling 68% of moneyline bets as -350 favorites. That could be because the Lions have lost 13 games in a row at San Francisco. Overall, Detroit is 1-11 SU in the past 12 games facing the 49ers. However, the Lions are 5-1 SU in their past six games this season. They are also 2-5 SU in the last five games against teams from the NFC West.

San Francisco is 8-2 SU through the past 10 games and 7-1 SU in the last eight meetings with an NFC opponent.
