Raiders vs Chargers Prediction, Moneyline, NFL Pick Sunday of Week 1

PRO Systems are activated for a bunch of NFL Week 1 late-afternoon games, offering up edges all day.

Scanning our advanced trends, one matchup in particular piqued the interest of our moneyline system, which submitted a Raiders vs. Chargers prediction Sunday.

While neither the Raiders nor the Chargers are widely viewed as contenders in 2024, Sunday’s 4:05 p.m. ET opener in Inglewood features intrigue from a betting perspective.

The Chargers, under first-year head coach Jim Harbaugh, come into the opener as favorites with a moneyline of -160. The Raiders, who stripped the interim tag off head coach Antonio Pierce in the offseason, are the underdogs at +135.

Obviously, other markets exist, such as the spread, over/under and a variety of NFL props to get down on Sunday.

Turning our focus strictly to the moneyline bet, however, a notable aspect emerges through our PRO Systems – and one of the angles specifically seeks out teams in situations such as the Chargers and Raiders.

Harbaugh vs. Pierce is a good one to kick off the season. Which team starts the year off on a high note?

Our advanced NFL models have an inkling.

The Chargers are about three-point favorites in Week 1, but all we care about is which team wins.

The “Early Season Upsets” PRO System, boasting a 50% win rate and a 22% ROI, identifies this as a valuable opportunity to back the underdog Raiders on the moneyline.

Betting on divisional underdogs early in the season, in games featuring tight spreads, produces a chunky edge historically.

Sides like the Raiders usually possess some familiarity with their opponents early in the season, benefitting underdogs at solid prices.

And the Raiders aren’t the only pick fitting the system Sunday! Be sure to see which other NFL moneyline picks fit the Early Season Dogs angle, which is good through Week 3.
