NFL betting should be popular on the Miami Dolphins this week as they host the hapless Oakland Raiders. The Dolphins have shown a lot of life this season and are actually in the playoff race in the AFC. The Raiders on the other hand are usually a team that gamblers that bet on football want to avoid at all costs.
NFL history tells us that the Dolphins have won 7 of the last 10 games against Oakland. They are also 6-4 against the NFL pointspread in those games. The teams played last year in Miami when the Dolphins were terrible and the Raiders won 35-17 according to NFL betting numbers. The other two meetings in Miami this decade both went to the Dolphins according to NFL betting statistics.
