Russell Wilson and the 5-1 Seahawks will host Lamar Jackson and the 4-2 Ravens on Sunday afternoon in what should be one of the best matchups on the Week 7 schedule. With Seattle laying 3 points as a home favorite, what is the best value for bettors?

Baltimore Ravens Fantasy Spin
Marquise Brown (ankle) is questionable for Week 7 against the Seahawks. Brown is closer to doubtful after missing practice all week. He’ll likely miss his second straight game with an ankle sprain that’s been more serious than initially thought. It’s a missed opportunity against Seattle’s burnable secondary. Willie Snead and Miles Boykin are in line for increased targets.
Seattle Seahawks Fantasy Spin
Seahawks add DT Jarran Reed to the active roster. Reed missed the first six games of the season due to suspension, but is fully expected to suit up Sunday against the Ravens. The six-foot-three and 307-pound DT started 31 of a potential 32 games with the Seahawks over the past two seasons.
NFL Betting Trends
Baltimore
The Ravens are 0-3-1 against the spread in their last four games versus the Seahawks and they have failed to cover in all five of their last five games overall.
Seattle
The Seahawks are 0-4 against the number in their last four home games but are 8-1-1 ATS in their last 10 games played in Week 7.
Prediction
The Seahawks have pulled out four of their five wins by a combined eight points, none of which have come against teams better than .500. And if it weren’t for some Wilson magic in each of those wins, they could easily be 1-5 instead of 5-1. The Seahawks have some issues along their offensive line because of injuries. They could be without three straight O-lineman and while the Ravens have not played well defensively at times this season, I like them to put some heat on Wilson. This should be a fun, back-and-forth game and I like the potential of a Ravens upset. Thus, I’ll take the field goal with a flaw but talented Baltimore squad.
