Why bet on Green Bay versus Arizona?

Not only has Green Bay won 6 straight after the tough 38-3 loss to the New Orleans Saints in the first week, but the Packers have also covered in all 6 wins. A couple of the covers were downright electric, handing San Francisco their lunch in a nice 30-28 road win in Week 3 and an overtime road win versus top AFC team Cincinnati. Green Bay has no problem beating good teams in their opponents’ stadiums.

Why bet on Arizona versus Green Bay?

Like Green Bay, undefeated on the moneyline Arizona is 6-1 against the spread. Zona has been so dominant that they blasted the Houston Texans 31-5 in their last after spotting their opponents 5 points. Almost as impressive? The line opened Cardinals -17 and rose by 3 ½ to Arizona -20 ½. The Desert Birds allows the Texans to score the first 5 and then proceeded to rout overmatched Houston and cover.

Green Bay Packers versus Arizona Cardinals Final Betting Prediction

Arizona is on a roll, but the jury remains out on if the Cards are the best team in the league. In Week 2, Zona struggled to get past the Minnesota Vikings

In fact, it took a missed Vikings field goal for Arizona to win. The victory over the Rams impressed, but Baker Mayfield played hurt, Kareem Hunt left the game, and Nick Chubb didn’t play in the blowout win against the Browns.

The Texans might be the worst team in the league while San Francisco, who fell to the Cards 10-17, started rookie quarterback Trey Lance. 

That doesn’t mean Arizona isn’t a good team. The Cardinals obviously are. But it does mean that even though Aaron Rodgers will be without Davante Adams, the Packers are worth backing to cover and have a big shot of winning this on the moneyline.
