Raiders vs. 49ers prediction & best bet
Over 52.0 (-108 via BetMGM)
It's pretty rare to see an NFL game with a point total hovering in the 50s. That's the case in this matchup between the Raiders and 49ers, primarily due to Las Vegas' porous defense.
The Raiders have allowed opponents to score 30+ points in 5 straight games, going 1-4 during this stretch. Las Vegas is the fifth-worst passing defense by expected points contributed (EXP) at -74.39 and also sit bottom-12 for run defense EXP at -4.85.
Off a bye week, the 49ers' top-5 scoring offense should make quick work of this struggling Raiders defense. San Francisco could break 40 points for the first time this season, especially coming off its only loss of the season with a rest advantage.
Kirk Cousins and the Raiders' offense can score. Despite facing a top-10 defense in this game, Las Vegas has recorded 30-21-38 points in its last 3 outings.
There's a reason why the point total has steamed up from 46.5 to 52.0. Expect a flurry of points from the 49ers, and steady production from the Raiders, in this late afternoon West Coast tilt.
Go to BetMGM and bet Over 52.0 at -108 odds.
📡 SBR Edge: Raidin' the Secondary
The Raiders are allowing the biggest average depth of target (DADOT) at 9.7 in the NFL, while giving up a league-worst 18 passing touchdowns.
Purdy shines in the 49ers' rout of the Raiders
49ers QB Brock Purdy has a ton of arm talent and plays within one of the league's best offensive schemes under head coach Kyle Shanahan. Facing a terrible pass defense like the Raiders, it's safe to expect Purdy to throw for 300 yards and 3-4 touchdowns.
Las Vegas will score enough points to push this total over 52.0. San Francisco's won all 4 of its home games this season by at least a 6-point margin, but this game could turn ugly quick for the Raiders, who will be chasing points early on.
Play to: Over 64.5
Score prediction: 49ers 45, Raiders 20
