For the first of the two matches in the NFC, the Los Angeles Rams will welcome the Dallas Cowboys. Fresh from their wildcard win, the Texas-based Cowboys faces a daunting challenge in the form of the conference’s second seed, the Rams. Bookie bet365 has the Cowboys at 3.65 while the Rams are priced at 1.3.

Meanwhile, odds suggest that defending champions Philadelphia Eagles will be unable to replicate its Cinderella run last season. On Sky Bet, the Super Bowl LIII winners and NFC sixth seed have the odds of 4 to win, far larger than the 1.25 of their rivals, the conference-best New Orleans Saints. The disparity made sense, after the Saints dismantled the Eagles 48-7 during Week 11.

AFC Division Odds

On the other side of the bracket, the storied New England Patriots aims for their fourth SB appearance in five years. First, the Boston-based club needs to overcome the fifth seed Los Angeles Chargers. Despite showing uncharacteristic cracks to their overall play, the Patriots are still favorites to win this battle, leading on Betway with the odds of 1.46 compared with the Chargers’ 2.75.

AFC’s top seed, the red-hot Kansas City Chiefs, are also favored to win their home tie versus the Indianapolis Colts. While the Colts are no pushovers, bookmakers predict NFL’s most exciting offense in the Chiefs to prevail. On William Hill, for one, the Chiefs are priced to win at 1.41 while Colts are at 3.05 only.

Fans can catch their favorite teams struggle along the way to the prized Vince Lombardi trophy in the NFL Divisional Round on January 12 and 13, 2019.
