Vegas Vipers at DC Defenders Preview & Picks

Vegas are tipped to cover as a road betting underdog.

This is likely to be much different than the Week 2 clash, which was played in terrible conditions.

The Vipers have found their offense with Brett Hundley starting, so they are backed to run DC close.

  • DC are winning by an average of 4.0 points per game at home
  • Vegas scored 26 points in Hundley’s 1st start (scored 26 across first 2 games)
  • The Over has cashed in 2 of DC’s first 3 games
  • The Over has hit in 2 of Vegas’ first 3 games of the season

Head To Head

  • The all-time series is tied 1-1
  • DC Defenders won 17-6 when the teams last met on February 25

Vegas Vipers Form

Vegas head to DC still seeking their first win but buoyed by their Week 3 showing.

The Vipers opened the season with a 22-20 loss to Arlington as a second-half meltdown allowed the Renegades to fightback.

They then suffered an 18-6 defeat when they hosted the DC Defenders in appalling conditions.

Brett Hundley then replaced Luis Perez as starting quarterback for the Week 3 game against Seattle, and he breathed new life into the offense.

The Vipers produced their best offensive display of the season, but fell to a 30-26 defeat after the defense gave up a late touchdown.

DC Defenders Form

DC are one of just two teams still boasting a perfect record after three weeks.

The Defenders made hard work of their season opener as they had to fight back to beat Seattle 22-18 at home.

They then made it back-to-back wins as they rode their run game to an 18-6 win at Vegas, which was played out in terrible weather.

DC then made it 3-0 last weekend, beating St Louis in a battle of two unbeaten North Division teams.

The Defenders out-scored the Battlehawks 20-14 in the second half to run out 34-28 winners at Audi Field.
