Baltimore Ravens vs Green Bay Packers Monday Night Football Odds: The Baltimore Ravens are in Green Bay, Wisconsin tonight to take on the Packers at historic Lambeau Field. The two squads are in both locked in tightly contested playoff chases in their respective conferences and can ill afford a loss this evening. Kickoff in this inter-conference showdown is set for 8:30pm ET on ESPN's Monday Night Football. Monday Night Football Odds at online bookmaker SPORTSBETTING.com have the Packers listed as a -3.5 against the spread home favorite; the over/under has been set at 42.5.
Ravens Breakdown: Baltimore got a huge win last Sunday night, beating the Steelers at M&T Bank Stadium 20-17 in
overtime. The victory tied John Harbaugh's club with Pittsburgh in the AFC North standings at 6-5 and maintained their relevance in the AFC playoff picture. If they can get by Green Bay this evening, the Ravens would move into a tie with the Jaguars for the final AFC Wild Card spot.
A loss this evening would be a definite setback; however, Baltimore would still be in the mix as it has a favorable stretch of games to close out the season. After the Packers, the Ravens host Detroit and Chicago before taking to the road to face the Steelers and Raiders.
The Ravens are 2-3 away from home this year where they have averaged 21.2 points per game and yielded 20.6 in return.
Packers Breakdown: Green Bay, which is riding a three game win streak, enters tonight's contest with a 7-4 record. The Packers last played on Thanksgiving Day when they easily dispatched NFC North rival Detroit 34-12 at Ford Field. That win currently has Mike McCarthy's squad in the playoffs, but a loss to Baltimore this evening would put them in a tie with the Giants for the final spot. A setback could be potentially devastating too as Green Bay plays three of its final four games on the road (Chicago, Pittsburgh, Arizona).
"Our margin for error is going to need to be a lot less than it has been in the first 11 games because it's December football now," McCarthy said. "This is the most important football that we'll play all season."
Monday Night Football Odds Betting Trend: Over the last five years, teams playing as a home favorite on a Monday night, coming off a win, are 6-1 straight up and 5-2 against the spread. Going back to 1983, teams in that situation are 102-42-1 straight up and 77-59-9 against the spread.
