Denver are tipped to cover as a home betting underdog.

The Broncos have had their issues on offense this season, but they do have that ‘Mile High’ home advantage on a short week.

They also posses a defense that can capitalise on Seattle’s sloppiness with the football to at least keep this one close.

Key Numbers – Can Broncos Go 3-0 At Home?

Denver Broncos won their 2 previous home games this season
Denver Broncos have covered in 3 of their last 4 games
Seattle Seahawks have lost 2 of their previous 3 games
The Under has cashed in 4 of Denver’s 5 games so far

Broncos Lead All-Time Head-To-Head; Seahawks Won Last Meeting

Denver Broncos lead the all-time series 35-23
Seattle Seahawks won 26-20 when the two teams last met in September 2024

Seattle Seahawks Suffered Second Loss Last Weekend

Seattle head out on the road on a short week looking to rebound from a big division defeat – their second loss of the season.

The Seahawks began their defence of the Vince Lombardi Trophy with a 13-10 win over New England in a rematch from last season’s Super Bowl.

They backed that up in Arizona with a 31-7 blowout of the Cardinals, only to then suffer a surprise 33-31 defeat when they visited Washington.

Seattle rebounded a week later with a 30-23 victory against the Los Angeles Chargers, but they failed to follow that up.

The Seahawks go into this matchup on the back for a 32-29 defeat to division rivals San Francisco.

Denver Broncos Looking To Build On Third Win

Denver return home looking to build on last weekend’s win over a division rival, which improved their record to 3-2.

The Broncos opened the season on the road and suffered a 31-10 defeat at the hands of Kansas City.

They bounced back from that loss over the next couple of weeks, recording back-to-back home wins over Jacksonville, 20-13, and the Los Angeles Rams, 30-26.

Denver failed to make it three-in-a-row as they were beaten 24-14 at San Francisco, but they did issue an immediate response.

The Broncos went back to the West Coast last Sunday to record a 23-17 win against division rivals, the Los Angeles Chargers.

Verdict

SEA Seahawks @ DEN Broncos

Both teams have had their issues through five weeks, but we are leaning towards Denver with the points.

Home advantage is huge for the Broncos, especially on a shortened week, and that defense can help them at least stay within a field goal on Thursday night.
