With all of the data and statistics on hand around elite sports, working your way through the numbers can feel daunting. Pro football contains a wealth of stats around every aspect of the game, from the effectiveness of offensive line blockers to punting accuracy and how often each team gives away penalties, and for how much yardage. That information is there to aid the selection of your betting picks, and can make a huge difference towards the accuracy of your wagers; but it can also be difficult to correctly analyze. The key is knowing just how to use it most effectively. We pore over the available stats and trends ahead of each game, looking at how the teams match up on the gridiron. StatSalt tipsters also have access to the latest technology, including Artificial Intelligence tools, to project the outcome of an upcoming matchup. Using these different strands of information we build a strong betting model that informs every prediction we make on NFL - but the final call is always ours, with all our picks come from human writers.
When it comes to NFL matchups, StatSalt concentrates on two betting markets. These are straight side picks, and totals.
When we pick sides, we are choosing who we think will cover the spread. For example, if we are backing Mahomes and Kansas City to cover at -8.5 against Pittsburgh, we believe that the Chiefs are strong enough to beat their opponents by more than 8.5 points at full time. Conversely, if we like the Steelers at +8.5, we are backing them to finish closer than 8.5 points behind Kansas by the end or win the game.
Total bets hang on the scoring potential of both teams combined. Before the game sportsbooks will set a price on the number of points which will be scored, and bettors must decide whether the real total will be above or below that number. Again, to take the example of Kansas vs Pittsburgh, if the over/under is set at 42.5, an over bet will cash in if there are more than 42.5 points scored by the two teams, and an under bet if 42 or fewer are scored.
