Lions Bills Betting Insights: Take Small Margins On Alternate Lines

This matchup is predicted to be the closest game of Week 15 having the shortest odds (+450) to have the smallest margin of victory on Sunday. Playing alternate lines like the Bills to win by -3.5 comes with enticing +205 odds. However, this isn’t the game to get overly aggressive with alternate spreads—based on the odds, legal sports betting sites expect a nail-biter.

Use The Over To Be Risky On Early Points

The team totals align with the expectation of a high-scoring affair.

Bet Bills Lions
Over 26.5 (125) 27.5 (115)
Under 26.5 (105) 27.5 (115)

Given that both totals exceed the projected over under for the game, consider wagering on anytime touchdown scorers in the first quarter. Bovada offers enticing odds for early action touchdown action.

  • David Montgomery +380
  • Jahmyr Gibbs +400
  • James Cook +550
  • Amon-Ra St. Brown +550
  • Josh Allen +750

The first quarter could set the tone for a game where early touchdowns drive the total points over the posted line of 53.5, which is where early public money is.

MVP Odds Implications: Allen vs. Goff

Quarterback play will be pivotal in this game, and both Josh Allen and Jared Goff are in the MVP conversation. Allen, the current favorite at -500, leads the Bills with his dual-threat dominance, while Goff (+1700) has propelled the Lions to the NFC’s top spot with consistent play and controlled performances in clutch moments.

With the Lions and Bills both chasing the Lombardi Trophy, this Week 15 clash is one of the most critical matchups of the season for more than just Super Bowl LIX odds.
