Green Bay Packers at Baltimore Ravens Betting Analysis and Predictions

The Best Bets for Sunday, December 19th

The Green Bay Packers (10-3) travel to Baltimore to take on the Ravens (8-5) on Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, Maryland. Kickoff is scheduled for 4:25 P.M. EST.

Both teams are leaders in the North divisions. Green Bay leads the NFC North, and Baltimore is in first place in the AFC North.

However, the Ravens are clinging to a one-game lead with both Cleveland and Cincinnati on their tail. Baltimore is currently on a two-game win streak after back-to-back defeats against division rivals in the Steelers and Browns.

The Packers already have their division wrapped up and have won two consecutive games heading into Sunday. Aaron Rodgers and the offense led an offensive explosion last week against the Bears that saw Green Bay end up with a 45-30 victory.

The Packers are still playing for the best record in the NFC. They are currently tied with Tampa Bay and Arizona at 10-3 for that honor.

However, Sunday represents a must-win game for the Ravens as they try to not let the division slip away. Winning this game will prove to be even more difficult if LaMar Jackson is unable to play. He is listed as questionable and is likely to be a game-time decision.

Although Jackson has not been perfect this year, he has been the Ravens’ best offensive player. He has thrown for 2,882 yards to go along with a team-leading 767 rushing yards on the season. But he has thrown 13 interceptions compared to just 16 touchdown passes.

Nonetheless, this was a Baltimore team that was written off due to their looming questions at running back after they had multiple injuries at the position prior to the season and even more during the season. But Jackson has shouldered the load without question.

The Raven defense will need to be nearly perfect if they hope to win without Jackson. But for now, the team will hope that he can be on the field in this crucial matchup.

The Packers have their own injury concerns at quarterback. Fortunately for them, it has not seemed to affect their success at all.

Despite having a fractured toe and missing multiple practices, Aaron Rodgers has continued to play and perform well. Rodgers had an astounding game last week with over 340 yards passing to go along with four touchdowns and no interceptions.

So despite not practicing this week, Rodgers is expected to be good to go on Sunday.

These two division leaders prepare to face off on Sunday. Let’s take a look at this cross-conference matchup.

NFL – Packers at Ravens Betting Trends

Green Bay has a league-leading 11-2 record ATS this season. The Packers are 5-1 ATS on the road this year. They are 4-2 SU away from home in 2021.

The Ravens are 6-7 ATS in 2021. Baltimore is 3-3 ATS on their home field this season. They are 5-1 at home so far this year.

Betting Odds

The odds in this game will ultimately come to true fruition once the status of LaMar Jackson is determined. For now, Green Bay is a fairly heavy favorite. Even if Jackson plays, the Packers will remain the favorites on the road.

As for upsetting the odds, the Ravens will need Jackson under center. Anything is possible, and Baltimore technically could win without their star QB, but the odds of that happening are highly unlikely.

However, make sure to continuously check the status of Jackson before locking in your final bets on this game.

How To Bet On: Packers at Ravens Betting lines

So do we pick Baltimore and hope for an upset?

If LaMar Jackson plays, possibly. The Ravens have more to play for, and the home crowd should provide them with plenty of fuel.

At the same time, the Ravens are the second-worst team against the pass. They rank 31st in the NFL in passing yards allowed per game with a mark of 266.08. But they are the best team against the run with just 85.46 rushing yards allowed per contest.

Nonetheless, Aaron Rodgers should be able to carve up this secondary in this game. So the Ravens will need to score a lot of points if they have any desire of pulling off the upset. Even with Jackson, I think the Packers will be able to emerge victorious in this one.

But expect a hard-fought game between these two teams.
