Goodbye home strength – home crisis incoming? The Cowboys have already lost their first two home games and if everything goes as expected, they will also lose their third in a row. Because in our Cowboys vs. Lions tip they are considered the underdogs.
Of course, this is mainly due to the strong Lions and their outstanding running game. This matchup suits them very well, as Dallas has one of the weaker run defenses and, for example, allowed 274 rushing yards against Baltimore.

The Boys also have to cope with some prominent losses, especially their two best pass rushers Micah Parsons and Demarcus Lawrence. We just see here There is hardly a scenario in which Dallas will be able to stop the Lions’ power offense.
So our prediction for Dallas vs. Detroit is an away win for the Lions, in which they will also put up a few points. In their first two home games, the boys conceded 44 and 28 points, which can now also happen against Detroit.

Dallas Cowboys – Statistics & Current Form
Where are the Cowboys headed this season? This is one of the most difficult questions to answer right now. Another major defeat and head coach Mike McCarthy could be history. A convincing win against the Lions and the Boys are suddenly considered contenders again.
So they’re at a crossroads and it’s a bad thing that their three best pass rushers, Micah Parsons, Demarcus Lawrence and now Marshawn Kneeland, are out – Lawrence and Kneeland even longer.
Cowboys walk on the gums
This was somehow compensated for against the Steelers by Golston, Odighizuwa and Co. playing a surprisingly strong game, but the backups probably won’t be strong enough to maintain this level in the long term.
So the Lions should have a lot of time offensively to use their weapons like Montgomery, Gibbs and St. Brown profitably. So the worst possible scenario for Dallas. They’re also really weak against the run.
Their defense allows an impressive 135.0 rushing yards per game – the ninth weakest value in the entire NFL. Now they face a rushing offense that runs 152.3 rushing yards per game. It could be very bitter for Dallas on Sunday.
Tips on cowboys should be avoided
This means there is a good chance that the Lions will break through the boys’ ranks time and time again and score a lot of points. We would be very surprised if the Lions stay below the 27 point mark here.
We don’t trust Dallas to score that many points, which makes the odds at Detroit -3 the first viable option for Cowboys vs. Lions. We would even combine a tip on Detroit with over points, as we expect a high scoring game here.
Key Players:
QB: That’s Prescott
RB: Ezekiel Elliott
WR: CeeDeeLamb
TE: Jake Ferguson
K: Brandon Aubrey

Detroit Lions – Statistics & Current Form
The Lions are back. For a few game days we wondered when they would finally be able to turn on the turbo, and against the Seahawks the time had come. They put up 42 points and pretty much all of their playmakers impressed with fantastic plays.
Gibbs scored two touchdowns, Montgomery one and Amon-Ra St. Brown even caught and threw one touchdown each. How is this porous Cowboys defense supposed to stop all the Lions’ weapons? It appears It’s almost impossible that Detroit won’t be able to score over 27 points again.

Lions with next point explosion?
The Lions point line in this matchup is 27.5 points and we clearly see an over coming here. So for Dallas vs. Detroit, a tip on over 27, 5 Lions points is another nice betting alternative.
However, we would be a little cautious with general over-points, as the Cowboys could stay under the 20 point mark on a bad day. However, since the line here is set extremely high at 52.0 total points, this doesn’t necessarily play into the tip’s hands.
Combination tips playable
However, over 45 total points should be achieved here in any case, which also makes a combination bet of the Lions win + over 41.5 points at great odds attractive. Here we can even increase the number to over 44.5, with outstanding odds.
Another bet for Detroit is on a touchdown from David Montgomery. He has found the end zone in all four games so far and is still at 100% for the season. As the only player in the entire NFL.
Key Players:
QB: Jared Goff
RB: Jahmyr Gibbs
WR: Amon-Ra St.Brown
TE: Sam Laporta
K: Jake Bates

Dallas Cowboys – Detroit Lions Direct comparison / H2H balance
The head-to-head comparison is pretty much the only element working in the Cowboys’ favor in this matchup. Dallas has won all six of their last meetings. Last year, after a controversial call in the last minute, the score was 21:20.
But firstly, the Lions will want to get revenge and secondly, they are ahead of Dallas in almost all relevant statistics this year. They score more points (26.0 to 23.5), they allow fewer points (20.5 to 24.2) and they have the better turnover ratio (+1 to -1).
We’ve already talked about the right matchup (top rushing offense also meets weak running defense), so the odds of a Lions win for Dallas against Detroit are our very clear tip recommendation – in whatever combination.

Betting base forecast & Dallas Cowboys – Detroit Lions Tipp
Which of the many betting options do we choose? For us, two stand out: handicap tips for Detroit with a 3-4 point handicap, but also combination tips for a victory for Detroit with over points.
We have each other in the end in Cowboys vs. Lions decided on a tip on Lions + over 41.5 total pointsas this number should easily be reached and we would then have covered a slightly tighter game. Because you should never completely underestimate the Cowboys.
Key-Facts – Dallas Cowboys vs. Detroit Lions Tipp
- The Cowboys allow 135.0 rushing yards per game
- Detroit is the only team that has yet to lose a fumble
- The Cowboys are without Parsons, Lawrence and Cooks
Alternatively, we recommend betting on a touchdown from Montgomery. With his four touchdowns in four games, he has shown that he is in very good form and he often gets the ball in front of the goal line, which also promotes touchdowns.
