Bettors are expecting Saturday's favorites to cover to begin NFL Super Wild Card Weekend

Saturday is finally here, which can only mean one thing: NFL playoffs. Saturday’s postseason slate features just two games. Both matchups are rematches from the regular season, as the Cincinnati Bengals host the Las Vegas Raiders and the Buffalo Bills host the New England Patriots.

The money coming in suggests that bettors aren’t ready to over-complicate things.

At Tipico Sportsbook, 69 percent of tickets have the Bengals at the moneyline, and 60 percent of tickets have Cincinnati covering the spread (-5.5). Additionally, 60 percent also anticipate the game to cross the 48.5 point total, signaling that bettors don’t foresee the cold temperatures at Paul Brown Stadium — it’s supposed to be about 31 degrees around kickoff — slowing down the offensive production.

Also at Tipico, 63 percent of tickets are with the Bills on the moneyline. Fifty-six percent of tickets have Buffalo covering the spread (-4.5) as the home favorite, despite splitting the season series with its AFC East foe New England Patriots. The forecast is calling for single-digit temperatures with some wind expected by opening kickoff, which could be why 72 percent of tickets are taking the under 43.5 points total.

Bengals-Raiders is set to kickoff at 4:30 p.m. ET on NBC, and Bills-Patriots is slated for 8:15 p.m. ET on CBS.
