Green Bay Packers Seattle Seahawks Betting Odds

Green Bay Packers Seattle Seahawks betting odds have the Packers as strong favourites at 5/18 with UK online bookmakers Bet365 to win what promises to be a fascinating match up in the first of the NFC Divisional Play Off games on Saturday.

The Packers, with home field advantage and a week off last week, will fancy their chances against the Seattle Seahawks who won last weekend’s wild card game against the Washington Redskins 35-14. The Packers who finished the regular season 13-3, have been something of dark horses entering the play-offs and currently 10/1 to win Superbowl. However, with Quarter Back Brett Favre having found something of a renaissance this season along with first season Running Back Ryan Grant making an instant impact, the Packers should not be underestimated and will surely have a point to when Mike Holmgren, the coach who lead the Packers to Superbowl victory in 1997 returns to Lambeau with his Seahawks.

Green Bay Packers Seattle Seahawks Betting Odds

The current handicap line for this games gives the Seahawks a +7.5 start which would require Green Bay to win by more than a touchdown and whilst the Packers offense is more than capable of getting points on the scoreboard but so are the Seahawks, making for a closer game than the line suggests. However, the 10/11 at Bet365 on total points scored in the game being over 43 looks like a good bet and would be Betting Directory’s pick for this game, with the Packers averaging 27 points per game and the Seahawks 24.

One of the most popular betting markets on NFL matches is the first touchdown scorer bets. The favourite to be the first player in the end zone during the Packers Seahawks game is Game Green bay’s Ryan Grant, a 6/1 shot, whilst Shaun Alexander is 7/1 second favourite to open the scoring for Seattle. Greg Jennings is the Packers top touchdown scorer this season and is 15/2 to add to his already impressive tally of twelve so far the year.
