It’s expected to be an evenly matched game between the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers tonight, a battle between two banged-up division rivals at Levi’s Stadium. The spread is only 3 points in favor of the 49ers, but experts are heavily backing one side over the other.
According to Tallysight, 75% of experts are picking the Rams to win outright against the 49ers and 78% are picking them to cover the spread of +3. That’s out of 83 experts who have submitted their picks for the game. Additionally, 61% are picking the score to go over 49 points, so most people believe it’ll be a higher-scoring affair.
The Rams are technically underdogs so it’s somewhat surprising that the majority is picking them to win against a team that’s had their number over the years. But Los Angeles is the healthier group right now and has built some momentum after wins over the Saints and Bills.
If the Rams can keep it up, they’ll be squarely in the mix for a playoff berth come Week 17 and 18.
