The Baltimore Ravens succeeded across the pond, delivering a 24-15 in London over the Tennessee Titans last Saturday. Lamar Jackson passed for 223 yards and a touchdown with an interception on 21/30 completions and also lead the Ravens with 62 rushing yards on 13 carries. The Raven’s defense has been a little befuddling this season.
Despite being headed a talented double-threat quarterback, the Ravens still average only 22.2 points per game, 15th overall in the NFL. They also 16th with 2.3 touchdowns per game. But, thta makes Baltimore a top candidate for positive TD regression, and the explosion could happen this weekend at home against Detroit.

The Detroit Lions keep proving why they are for real this season. They extended their win streak to four matches when they trashed the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a 20-6 victory on the road last Sunday.
While the Lions did not meet its season scoring average in that campaign, they showed that they can win matches with their defense too, holding the Buccaneers down to just 251 total yards and 2/12 on third downs. Detroit is inside the top 10 in both scoring offense (28.0 PPG) and scoring defense (18.8 points allowed per game) so far this season. The Lions’ ground attack took a hit with David Montgomery suffering a long-term injury, but Detroit’s passing attack can pick up the slack.
MatchPlug Prediction For Baltimore Ravens VS Detroit Lions
The Baltimore Ravens offense rises to occasion, while the Detroit Lions’ attack will be slowed down by the Ravens’ defense. It should be remembered that Baltimore is one of the top-five defense in the NFL.
Final Prediction: Baltimore Ravens Moneyline.
