Betting on DC to Win the 2023 XFL Championship and the Over to Hit
Jordan Ta’amu has been outstanding for DC, finishing with the third most passing at 1,894 yards in the 10-game regular season. He also was quick on his feet, recording the seventh most rushing yards in the league at 298 and three rushing TDs, and is a big reason that DC is favored at legal sportsbooks for this matchup.
Ta’amu and the Defenders took on the Renegades during week nine of the regular season and escaped with a two point victory in overtime. DC did not struggle in the first round of the XFL Playoffs, beating the Seattle Sea Dragons by 16 points. The Defenders ended the regular season with the highest point differential in the entire XFL at +58.
DC also finished the regular season with the most total touchdowns in the XFL and hit the over in eight of their ten games played. Legal betting sites had the total set at 41.5 for the Defenders and Renegades week nine matchup, and the over hit by 12.5 points.
Does Arlington Have a Chance to Beat the Defenders?
Arlington finished the regular season with a record of 4-6 and a point differential of -48 but has shown resilience at the end of the season. The Renegades were 6.5 point underdogs at XFL betting sites against the Houston Roughnecks in the first game of the playoffs but ended up covering and winning by 15.
The Defenders have been the favorite to win the XFL Championship for the majority of the regular season. While the South Division Championship victory was impressive by Arlington, DC should still win big and cover the six and a half point spread, going 7-4 ATS this season.
