Predictions and Betting Preview for the San Francisco 49ers vs Houston Texans NFL Preseason Week 3 Game on August 25, 2022
- Where: NRG Stadium, Houston, Texas
- When: Thursday, August 25, 8:15 PM ET
Betting on the San Francisco 49ers
- Record: 2-0-0
- Spread: -3
- Moneyline: -149
- Over/Under: 42.5
The San Francisco 49ers have had a reasonably good preseason, having defeated the Packers 28-14 in Week 1 and outscored the Vikings 17-7 in Week 2. They will want to maintain this pace once the regular season begins in a tightly contested NFC West division.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan was undoubtedly relieved after the victory, since after the team allowed 437 yards against the Packers, the defense reacted by allowing only 195 yards against the Vikings.They also managed to intercept two fumbles to completely deactivate the opposing offense.
Betting on the Houston Texans
- Record: 2-0-0
- Spread: +3
- Moneyline: +150
- Over/Under: 42.5
The Houston Texans are considered by many to be the weakest team in the entire NFL following the departure of quarterback Deshaun Watson. However, after winning its first two games this preseason, the Texas team has showed that it may be better than many expect, outscoring the Saints 17-13 and the defending Super Bowl champion Rams 24-20 during Week 2.
Still, the numbers from those games show that, while they won, they were not dominant, outgaining their opponents by five yards or fewer; even against the Saints, they had nearly nine fewer minutes of possession.
JefeBet Prediction
Sooner or later the Texans’ luck is going to run out, and we believe this could be the game where they finally lose. As previously noted, while they have produced respectable results, they have not been dominant, and we believe that facing a 49ers club anxious to wrap up their preseason could cause them to lose at home.
Prediction: San Francisco 49ers Moneyline
