Jacksonville are tipped to cover as they make it back-to-back wins in London.

Houston arrive on the back of a morale-boosting win, but the Jaguars have been in good form all season, delivering in all three phases of the game.

They also have the advantage of having been in London for almost two weeks now.

  • Jacksonville Jaguars have covered in 3 of their 4 wins
  • Houston Texans have failed to cover in their 4 defeats

Houston Texans Snapped Four-Game Skid Last Sunday

Houston make the long trip to London having finally registered their first win of the season last weekend.

The Texans kicked off the campaign with back-to-back home games, but failed to make the most of that as they lost both matchups.

They lost 36-31 to Buffalo, before suffering a 20-6 defeat at the hands of Cincinnati.

Houston then dropped their road opener at division rivals Indianapolis, 19-17, before falling to 0-4 as they were beaten 34-30 at home by Dallas.

The Texans finally got off the mark last weekend though, as they went out on the road to knock off Tennessee, 26-3.

Jacksonville Jaguars 4-1 Following Dramatic London Win

Jacksonville enter this matchup on the back of a thrilling win at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which took their record to 4-1.

The Jaguars opened with a 34-10 blowout of Cleveland at home, only to then lose 20-13 when they paid a visit to Denver.

They have not lost since though, sparking this three-game win streak with a 35-6 blowout of New England at home.

Jacksonville followed that up a week later with a 22-17 success in Cincinnati, before making it three-in-a-row in London last weekend.

In the final seconds of the game, the Jaguars returned a kickoff 53 yards and then converted a walk-off 57-yard field goal to snatch a 19-17 win over Philadelphia.

Verdict

Houston are off the mark and Marvin Harrison Jr has joined the fold, but we need to see a lot more from the Texans before we have confidence in them.

Jacksonville have impressed through the first five weeks and have not face a transatlantic flight this week, so we are backing the Jags to back up that jaw-dropping win over Philly.
