Here we have a San Francisco team that had only 3 losses last year getting 5 points in Green Bay. Dating back to 1999. Green Bay has won 8 of its games against San Francisco including two in the last three seasons (they did not play one another last year).
The Packers are 18-7-1 Against The Spread in their last 26 home games and are 15-6 ATS in their last 21 games overall. They are also 11-5 ATS in their last 16 vs. NFC.
The 49ers are 14-4-1 ATS in their last 19 games overall.
The Sagarin Ratings suggest this line should be -2.5 to possibly -3, although we would tack on another point for Green Bay’s home field advantage coupled with San Francisco’s potential jet lag. Still, even with the other variables in place, the -5 point line does appear to be somewhat inflated.
These are two teams that are in high demand within the futures market where Green Bay had odds of 4/1 to win the 2013 Super Bowl and San Francisco had odds of 7/1 to do the same.
