West Ham has enjoyed an edge in recent h2h play but Villa will be too much for them in this one. Villa has only conceded three goals in its last four matches and has allowed one goal or less in six of its last seven matches. The Hammers gave up 2 goals in their last match and have conceded 6 in their last 4. Villa has been superb at home and will snap a winless streak in the series.
Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.
- Tampa Bay are 7-2 in their last 9 games against an opponent in the National Football Conference South division.
- Atlanta are 1-5 in their last 6 games against Tampa Bay.
- Atlanta are 2-5 in their last 7 games played in week 7.
Atlanta quarterback Desmond Ridder was undefeated at home until last week's 24-16 loss to the Commanders. On the road, the Falcons are winless with Ridder as the starting QB, and this season, they've managed to score a total of only 13 points in their two games away from home.
The Falcons need Ridder to significantly improve his road game to have any chance of winning this one, as they can't rely on their running game against this Tampa Bay defense.
The Bucs will be looking to bounce back from a 20-6 loss to Detroit. After their first loss of the season, they responded with an impressive 26-9 win in New Orleans. Following last week's embarrassing performance, I expect them to bring maximum effort today.
