Monday January 25, 4 am, Mile High Stadium

Weather Partly Cloudy 6 Degrees – Outdoor stadium

Game rating –  Patriots 26 v Broncos 19

Super Bowl 50 beckons for the winner of this clash which pits the two best quarterbacks in the league against each other again! Its Tom Brady versus Peyton Manning and the winner of that battle will go a long way in securing victory in this intriguing match-up.  The Patriots had an absorbing battle with the Chiefs last week (20-27) and travel to the high altitude of Denver as favourites to tackle the Broncos who came from behind at three quarter time to wear down the Steelers (16-23).  These sides last met in Week 12 at Denver with the Broncos winning (24-30) without the services of Manning – inflicting the first defeat of the year on the Patriots who were banged up and ready to lose on the Form Graph Indicator.  It is a different story this time with the Patriots ready to play a peak-out game and the Broncos also looking to be positive to their projected game rating.

Prediction

The Patriots have a commanding 5-2 SU record against the Broncos but are only 1-5 ATS on the road.  Broncos are also struggling to beat the spread at home sitting on 1-4-1 ATS at Mile High.  The clash between Brady and Manning favours Brady 11-5 SU and the tally in Playoff games is locked at 2-2.  The Patriots offensive power with an average of 30 points per game will be too much for the Broncos to handle and expect New England to win and cover.

Suggested Bets

Option 1 – New England Patriots to win at $1.63

Option 2 – New England Patriots to cover the -3 spread at $1.90

Option 3 – Game Total Over 44.5 at $1.90
