Guardians vs. Roughnecks Predictions
These teams met each other in Week 1, and the Roughnecks ran away with a 33-12 victory. At this stage in the season, it appears that the Roughnecks are the best team in the XFL and the Guardians are the worst. Will that trend continue in Week 4, or will Orlando figure things out enough to cover the 8.5 point spread?
The answer to that question is still a resounding “no”. The Guardians have issues on both the offensive and defensive lines, and that’s where the Roughnecks strength lies. Expect Houston to get plenty of pressure on Orlando QB Paxton Lynch (similar to Week 1) in order to run away with this game.
Sure, this is a large spread for an XFL game, but Houston has the upper hand to win by double-digits yet again.
The Pick: Roughnecks -8.5 | -110 at FanDuel Sportsbook
