Ravens vs. Colts Predictions
If you haven’t bet on the “winning margin” prop at FanDuel, then this is the perfect time to introduce you to this savvy betting technique.
The bet will be on the Ravens’ winning margin to be 1-13 points. In essence, we’re backing the Colts with a spread of +13.5 points, but under the condition that they don’t secure a victory.
The Colts have surprised with their form this season. The possibility of Gardner Minshew taking the helm as the starting quarterback doesn’t seem like a disadvantage to me.
Expect Indianapolis to keep the game competitive, but I predict they won’t manage to clinch a win on the road.
