Packers vs. Steelers Prediction & Odds for Sunday Night Football: NFL Week 8 Betting Preview
My best Packers vs. Steelers prediction for the 8:20 p.m. ET (NBC) Sunday Night Football matchup at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh focuses on the Packers' struggles on the road this season. Green Bay is favored by 3 points, per the latest Sunday Night Football odds, but my best NFL picks highlight where the Steelers may have advantages.
Aaron Rodgers has never faced his former team, but his revenge against the Packers isnβt the only reason that the Steelers winning is one of my best NFL predictions for Week 8.

π Sunday Night Football preview & score prediction
At home, the Packers have won by an average of 10.3 points, defeating the Lions, Commanders, and Bengals. However, on the road, the Packers have an average scoring margin of just plus-0.3 points, despite not playing a team with a winning record.
Capitalizing on opportunities will be the difference
The Steelers have allowed the second-most passing yards per game, but the defense has forced 10 turnovers this season, tied for the fifth-most in the league. Meanwhile, the Packers have only forced three, tied for the second-fewest in the NFL.
Itβs unlikely the Packers force a turnover in this game, as the Steelers have just five giveaways all year, tied for the sixth-fewest in the league.
The Steelers have allowed just 47.83% of red-zone trips to result in touchdowns, while the Packers have allowed 61.11%. And on the road, that number jumps up to 63.64%.
Caesars' price of -113 implies a 53.05% chance the Steelers cover. A $10 bet would pay $8.85.
β Score prediction: Steelers 24, Packers 21
