XFL Week 8 Predictions and Betting Analysis for the Best 2023 Games

Week 8 of the XFL season is a huge one for several teams, as there are only a few chances left to solidify playoff positioning. The top-two teams in the North and South Divisions will advance to the postseason after the 10-week regular season is done, and there are still plenty of questions as to who those final four teams will be. After these four games, we could have a much better idea.

Then once XFL football odds land, decide on which teams you wish to back to win straight up, cover the spread, or both in Week 8 of the season.

2023 XFL Week 8: When: Saturday, April 8 – Sunday, April 9

When: Saturday, April 8 at 4:00 pm ET
Where: The Dome at America’s Center, St.Louis, MO
TV / Streaming: ESPN / ESPN+

A North Division matchup will kick off the weekend in the XFL, as the Vegas Vipers take on the St. Louis BattleHawks. This is a huge game for the BattleHawks, as they are tied for second in the North with the Seattle Sea Dragons, and need to take advantage of being the heaviest favorite of the weekend against the North’s last place squad. St. Louis’ two losses have both come against the 6-1 D.C. Defenders, and the BattleHawks should like their chances to pick up a huge win here at home.

Arlington Renegades vs Orlando Guardians

Where: Camping World Stadium, Orlando, FL
TV / Streaming: ESPN / ESPN+

In the South Division, the Orlando Guardians are slight favorites against the Arlington Renegades despite the Guardians entering with a 1-6 record. That status as a favorite has a lot to do with the spark that they have found from switching to Quinten Dormady as their starting quarterback. Dormady is averaging 8.0 yards per pass attempt, tops among XFL quarterbacks that have played in more than one game, in a huge upgrade over opening week starter Paxton Lynch.

Houston Roughnecks vs San Antonio Brahmas

When: Sunday, April 9 at 3:00 pm ET
Where: Alamodome, San Antonio, TX
TV / Streaming: ABC / ESPN+

Speaking of Paxton Lynch, the San Antonio Brahmas have acquired him before their South Division matchup with the first place Houston Roughnecks. With quarterbacks Jack Coan and Reid Sinnett both out due to injuries, Lynch was a necessary addition to save the Brahmas from having to play a combination of Kurt Benkert and Juwon Pass. The question now is whether Lynch can play better than he did against Houston as a member of the Guardians, when he was not effective until things were more or less out of reach in their second meeting.

D.C. Defenders vs Seattle Sea Dragons

D.C. vs Seattle Game Info | Updated XFL Odds
When: Sunday, April 9 at 7:00 pm ET
Where: Lumen Field, Seattle, WA
TV / Streaming: ESPN2 / ESPN+

The final game of the XFL Week 8 schedule comes on Sunday, and could be the best game of the week in the league. The D.C. Defenders are coming off of their first loss of the season last week in a shootout with the previously winless Orlando Guardians. Here, they take on the Seattle Sea Dragons in Seattle, in a game with huge implications in the North Division title race.

These teams are a combined 11-3 so far this season, and the winner of this game will boost their chances of winning their division. That is incredibly important in the North Division, as the winner of this division will get to host the runner up in the division championship round. These teams also are both in need of a win to make sure that they are not overtaken by the St. Louis BattleHawks and left out of the playoffs entirely.
