Match preview

Defensive co-ordinator Vance Joseph has done a great job with the Cardinals’ defence this season and Arizona may be involved in a low-scoring contest at Cleveland.

Arizona held the San Francisco 49ers to ten points last week and while Cleveland’s defence had were uncharacteristically poor against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week Five, they had given up only 13 in their previous two matches combined.

Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is dealing with a shoulder injury, while Browns counterpart Baker Mayfield has an injury to his non-throwing shoulder to contend with. The Browns offence has also been weakened by running back Nick Chubb being ruled out.

In any case, Cleveland defensive end Myles Garrett will make life difficult for Murray, and the prospect of blustery day in Ohio is another factor for the Cards to deal with – Arizona aren’t used to such conditions given they play in a dome.

This total-points line has already dropped down from an opening mark in the 50s, but there’s still value at 49.5.

Cleveland will probably to look to run the ball whenever they can – which will keep the clock churning – and neither team may top 24 points.

Key stat

The points total has gone under in ten of Arizona’s last 11 road games.
