The Dallas Cowboys will march into Reliant Stadium, seeking their second win of the season against the struggling Houston Texans.

The Cowboys are a tantalizing +130 underdogs in this match.

Current Form:

Dallas Cowboys have gone 2-1 in their last 3 games. The Cowboys opened the new season with a 20-28 loss to the New York Giants on Week 1 but bounced back with a 37-20 victory over the Washington Commanders on Week 2. Dallas crashed back to earth following a heartbreaking 31-34 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Week 2.

The Houston Texans remain winless after three games. After bowing to the Buffalo Bills in a high-scoring season-opener, 31-36, the Texans got shut down by the Cincinnati Bengals, 6-20, on Week 2 and nipped by the Indianapolis Colts, 17-19, on Week 3.

Our Houston Texans vs Dallas Cowboys Prediction

The Difference Maker: Dak Prescott has covered 730 passing yards with 7 TDs and 1 interception this season. Prescott’s elite passing makes CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens legitimate downfield threats at any point of this match. Also, even if Prescott cannot take the ball all the way to the red zone, elite kicker Brandon Aubrey has been almost automatic point getter outside the 40-yard line.

What to Expect: The Cowboys outgun the Texans in an entertaining, high-scoring match.

It’s almost guaranteed that this match will go over 48.5 games given the scoring pedigree and how poor the defense has been from both squads this season. However, the prospect of cashing in on a +130 payout for a Cowboys upset is too enticing to pass up.

Fearless Forecast: Cowboys 35, Texans 27
