Why Bet on the Indianapolis Colts?
The Colts currently hold second place in the AFC South division. It took a few weeks before the team found its stride. In their last seven games, they managed to secure five wins. However, there’s work to be done if the Colts want to improve their 2-2 road record this season.
The side managed to win by double-digits in their two road wins. It puts less pressure on the team knowing that they can deliver good results in uncharted territory. As a team, they record 371.0 (12th) total yards and allow 367.2 opponent yards (20th) per game.
Despite not having the best passing statistics and only average 233.7 passing yards per game, the Colts manage to find their stride on the rushing side. It is one of the stronger areas of their offense. They average 137.3 rushing yards per game (fifth).
Defensively, the Colts have to improve their numbers if they want to put pressure on the Bills this weekend. The team allows 260.8 passing yards (23rd) per game. Moreover, the Colts have to work on defending rushing plays better as they take on a team that executes rushing plays well. They currently allow 106.4 rushing yards (13th) per game.
We expect the Colts to come in with a healthy starting lineup. Only right cornerback Xavier Rhodes remains out of the list following a calf injury.
Why Bet on the Buffalo Bills?
The Bills demolished the Jets in a 45-17 victory in Week 10. What gives the home team confidence is that they only lost a game in four road contests. A win gives more breathing room from a Patriots team breathing down their necks in the AFC East division.
The hosts have one of the most impressive statistics in the league right now. They feature a well-balanced offense and defense. The side averages 390.1 yards (eighth) and 270.4 passing yards (seventh) per game. Rushing is not the team’s forte, but they do enough to record 119.8 rushing yards (11th) in nine games.
Defense is where the Bills shine the most. We can argue that they are the best defensive team in the league right now. The team limits opponents to 262.6 yards (first) and 177.0 passing yards (first) per game. On top of that, they hold teams to 85.6 rushing yards per game (fourth).
Two defensive players will sit the game out. Right defensive tackle Star Lotuleilei and middle linebacker Tremaine Edmunds are out with injuries.

Colts vs. Bills Expert Betting Predictions
The Bills hold a significant advantage over the two in this matchup. Having the home-field advantage and a better overall record makes them favorites in the game. There’s no arguing that head coach Sean McDermott does an excellent job making the team Super Bowl LVI contenders.
On the other hand, the Colts can put pressure on the home team. This is their chance to gain some momentum on the road before Week 12. Covering the spread should be doable for the team. If everything falls in place for the Bills, we might even see the team go for the win this Sunday.
