Team Recent Performance

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers have shown quite a performance recently as they managed to claim the victory in four out of their last five games demonstrating a good mix of offense and toughness. Besides, they had important wins over the 49ers and the Seahawks and at the same time, they were part of a close defeat against the Eagles. The Bucs have been involved in four out of their five games hitting the over and this is confirming that their offense is able to perform under pressure and keep up with the pace in the games with a lot of points.

Detroit Lions

The Detroit Lions are still performing well even though they had a little slip-up. Losing badly 30-17 to Kansas City was their turning point but then the Lions managed to get back on track with very convincing victories against Cincinnati, Cleveland, Baltimore, and Chicago. Their attack has been incredibly dynamic, scoring more than 30 points in four out of five games and often going over the total. The Lions have shown that they are really getting to grips with the game by being able to cover the spread whether they are the favorites or the underdogs.

Team Head-to-Head Matchup

Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Detroit Lions are going to play with different offensive momentum. Bucs’ offense has not performed well, scoring only an average of 16.3 points and gaining 291.7 yards per game, whereas Lions with their balanced front are scoring 22.3 points and getting more than 410 yards. Lions have been better in passing with a completions rate of 66.4% while the Bucs have only 58.8% and they are also more effective in running they are not that good at passing though. Moreover, turnovers might be game changers, as the Tigers lose the ball on average 0.7 times a game and the Bucs 1.3 times a game, hence a bit of the Lions’ favor.
