Houston Roughnecks at Michigan Panthers Preview & Picks
Houston are tipped to cover as a betting underdog on the road.
Michigan are likely to rest their starters or at least limit their minutes ahead of the playoffs, so a blowout win over the Roughnecks may not be on the cards in this one.
- Michigan Panthers are 1-3-0 ATS at home this season
- 3 of Houston Roughnecks last 4 losses have been by less than 10 points
- Houston Roughnecks’ last 3 games have produced over 44.0 total points
- Each of Michigan Panthers’ last 5 games have gone over 44.0 total points
Head To Head
- Michigan Panthers lead the all-time series 4-1
- Michigan Panthers won 30-18 when the two teams last met on May 17
Houston Roughnecks Form
Houston enter this matchup having already been eliminated from playoff contention, but on the back of their best win of the season.
The Roughnecks dug themselves into an early hole as they were beaten 31-6 by St Louis and 11-9 at Arlington.
They rallied to win 18-17 in Memphis, and then rebounded from a 23-16 loss to Birmingham was a 27-3 victory at San Antonio and a 21-20 win over Memphis.
Houston’s playoff hopes were ended after that though, as they were beaten 33-25 in Birmingham and 30-18 at home to Michigan.
The Roughnecks did avoid a third straight defeat however, as they upset playoff-bound DC last weekend, 24-21.
Michigan Panthers Form
Michigan go into their final regular season game on the back of a loss, but having already secured their place in the postseason.
The Panthers opened with a 26-12 victory in Memphis, only to then suffer a 21-12 defeat when they hosted Birmingham.
They rebounded to beat San Antonio 26-23 and Memphis 27-9, but failed to make it three wins in a row as they were beaten 32-27 in St Louis.
Michigan responded to that loss with a three-game win streak that secured playoff football, following up a 38-14 win at home to DC with road wins over Arlington, 25-24, and Houston, 30-18.
The Panthers failed to make it four-in-a-row as they lost 26-22 at playoff opponents Birmingham last weekend.
Verdict
While this is a ‘dead rubber’ for Michigan, this game matters to a Houston team looking to avoid a losing season and sign off on a high.
The Roughnecks have improved this season, so give us the motivated team with something to play for, and the free points that come with them.
