Official Sports Betting Preview for Super Bowl

Here is the official sports' betting preview of the New York Giants-New England Patriots' Super Bowl.

The Giants come in 13-6 straight up and against the spread, but that’s after starting out 0-2 in each category.

Sportsbooks has New England from an 11.5 to 12-point favorite, with the over/under ranging from 54-55.

New York has also won and covered their last 10 games away from Giants Stadium. The Patriots, as you have probably heard, are 18-0 straight up. However, they have not been as profitable spread wise, failing in seven of their last eight games.

It’s also been a reversal of fortunes as far as the betting total. New England has gone under at a 4-1-1 rate after going over in 10 of its first 12 games.

New York averages more yards-per-rush on offense by a margin of .2. The Patriots' high-powered attack of Tom Brady, Randy Moss, and Wes Welker, though, averages 8.0 yards-per-pass compared to 5.9 for Big Blue.

Defensively, the Giants have huge advantage in stopping the run, allowing 3.8 yards-per-rush compared to 4.4 for the Pats. New York, though, allows .3 more yards per pass than its AFC counterparts.

Sports betting trends (all against the spread): The Giants have covered in seven of their last eight after allowing less than 90 yards rushing last game. 

Totals bettors will note New York has gone under 44-19 after allowing less than 90 yards rushing last game. New England has gone under 9-3-1 as playoff favorites.
