Steelers at Colts picks and predictions

Prediction

Colts 17, Steelers 13

Moneyline

PASS.

While not by much, there are better odds betting on the Colts (-120) spread compared to the ML.

Against the spread

BET COLTS -1.5 (-110).

The Steelers have covered the spread just once in the past 4 weeks and once in their last 3 games playing as an underdog. The Colts have been favorites in 4 games this season and have covered the spread in all 4. They have also covered the spread in 3 of their last 4 home games.

Indianapolis is 8-5 ATS this season, while Pittsburgh is 7-6 ATS.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 42.5 (-110).

The Colts have a 9-4 Over record this season. However, the Steelers have a 3-10 Over record. The Steelers have notoriously failed to stimulate offense this season and have struggled more in the absence of Pickett. Pittsburgh has not scored more than 18 points in each of its last 4 games. It has only scored more than 20 points in 5 games this season, and its season high was 26 back in Week 2. Expect points to come at a premium in this matchup.
