Betting Tip
The Cardinals beat the Rams 37-20 in Los Angeles earlier this season which clearly shows who the better team at the moment is. But if we look at the head-to-head, there has been only one team on the field when these two met in recent years. The Rams can challenge Arizona for the top division spot in this game and they will certainly do that. It is really tough to bet on the Rams since the Cardinals have the best record in the league, therefore placing a bet on under 51.5 points seems like the best option.
