Patriots vs Giants Preseason Betting Prediction
The Week 3 preseason clash between the New England Patriots and New York Giants is set to bring plenty of betting intrigue, given the recent history between these two franchises. While preseason results don’t always translate to the regular season, patterns and trends matter greatly for bettors. New England has struggled to find consistency, particularly against NFC opponents, while the Giants have also been a tough team to trust when it comes to covering spreads. What makes this matchup intriguing is the total, as both teams have a strong record of hitting the over when playing against each other, especially in preseason contests.

Patriots vs Giants Preseason Betting Prediction: New England
The Patriots offense has been among the league’s weakest, ranking 30th in points scored, dead last in passing yards, and struggling badly with turnovers. On the flip side, the Giants’ defense has been middle of the pack in most areas, ranking ninth against the pass but struggling to stop the run. That dynamic could actually play into the Patriots’ one relative strength: rushing offense, where they rank 14th in the league. Expect New England to test the Giants’ 26th-ranked run defense heavily, especially in a preseason setting where quarterbacks may not be asked to throw often.

Patriots vs Giants Preseason Betting Prediction: New York
