Saints vs. Chiefs Preview and Free Pick

Saints vs. Chiefs

The preseason is a great time for the teams to get back into gear as the matches do not affect the regular season.

This allows the teams to do things differently and focus on putting the team out to get ready, instead of simply focusing on getting the victory.

It is the reason that we are excited about this match, as we are going to watch the defending champions, the Chiefs, and the Saints go at it. This match is coming our way on Sunday, taking place in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.

We are expecting to see a lot of talented players, as the rotations usually done by the Chiefs on their preseason matches should allow for the spotlight to be shared, but it can also allow the Saints to get a step forward over them.

When: 

Sunday, August 13th at noon ET in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome

Moneyline odds: 

New Orleans Saints -155 

Kansas City Chiefs +130

Why Bet on the New Orleans Saints?

The Saints wrapped up their season holding a 7-10 mark. When they last took the field, they suffered a loss by a final score of 10-7 against the Panthers.

We are expecting them to go all out in the preseason to carry momentum for the regular season start. The players don’t want to underperform anymore and need to reach the postseason.

The Saints come into the clash as the favorites, which is due to the Chiefs’ regular preseason strategy.

Why Bet on Kansas City Chiefs?

The last time they stepped on the football field, the Chiefs played the Eagles and notched a win by a score of 38-35.

This allowed them to become the NFL Champions. Now they come into the preseason getting ready to show the reason behind it.

A lot of fans are eager to watch them come into the field for this first match but we are also kind of mindful of how they do not focus on just winning in pre-season, but getting all players into gear.

Free Betting Pick: Saints vs. Chiefs

Historically, head coach Andy Reid will let his starters have a drive or two in the first preseason game. Then the second team will come in and there will be several names that fans know and are still excited to watch.

Let’s be honest here, as hyped as we all are to watch the Chiefs play a game for the first time this season, when that second half kicks off, the quality of football can be hard to watch. 

We understand why the Saints are the betting odds favorites, but in the end, we expect the Chiefs to do just what is needed to get the victory in this clash.

Go for a victory for the champions at +130. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $130 for a total payout of $230.
