The over is 13-5 in the Terriers' previous 18 home games, and they are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games against teams with winning home records and 1-8 ATS in their last nine versus such teams. In this case, support the Terriers.
The Raiders are the favorites in this game, and they will most likely prevail. The Terriers gave the Raiders everything they could handle in their first encounter on the Raiders' home field, and lately, the Raiders have been involved in a number of close games. This seems like it might be another close one; take Terriers ATS in this one.
