Our Detroit Lions vs Pittsburgh Steelers Prediction
The Lions are about a touchdown favorite in this matchup; however, the Steelers look to be the best betting option. Detroit is in danger of missing the playoffs as they have a mediocre record. Their offense has been excellent at times this season, but their defense has also allowed a ton of points over the last few weeks.
The Steelers, on the other hand, are fighting for the AFC North division, which they lead by one game as it stands. Pittsburgh has also won back-to-back games and has been improving every week.
As good as the Lions’ offense has been, their defense has let them down on numerous occasions. Because of that, our Detroit Lions vs Pittsburgh Steelers prediction is: Pittsburgh Steelers +7.5 Alternate Spread.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
