The Broncos are among the week’s top favorites, sitting at -9, while the total points line is set at 42.5.
Denver holds several key advantages, and my predictions for the Raiders vs. Broncos suggest wide receiver Courtland Sutton will have a significant impact.

Raiders vs Broncos Prediction
Best Bet: Courtland Sutton Over 53.5 receiving yards (-110)
The Las Vegas Raiders are struggling against opposing wide receivers, making it likely that Courtland Sutton and Bo Nix will capitalize.
The Raiders are allowing 165 receiving yards per game to wide receivers, one of the highest in the league.
Sutton has been consistent, exceeding 53.5 receiving yards in six of nine games, including all four home games for the Denver Broncos where he’s averaged 74 yards.
This line is lower than Sutton’s typical range, which often sees it set in the high 50s or 60s, likely due to his recent one catch for 30 yards against a tough Texans defense.
Raiders vs Broncos Same-Game Parlay
This parlay focuses on the Broncos’ passing game.
If Nix surpasses 225 yards passing, Sutton is likely to be a primary target, contributing significant yardage and scoring opportunities.
Sutton has proven to be Nix’s most trusted option in the red zone since last season, making this pairing strong given the Raiders’ defensive vulnerabilities.

Game Predictions
Moneyline Prediction
Unexpected outcomes can occur on Thursday nights, making predictions tricky. However, I believe a solid home team should overpower a struggling opponent.
Spread Prediction
The Raiders have frequently been outmatched by superior teams, suffering significant defeats on the road, while the Broncos enjoy an impressive home streak with eight consecutive victories. Coupled with Denver’s top defense facing a Raiders offense that ranks low, another substantial Broncos win seems likely.
Over/Under Prediction
Both defenses have been impressive recently, with the Raiders ranking fifth in yards allowed per play over the past three games and the Broncos yielding just 18.4 points per game. This consistency may lead to a lower-scoring affair.
Odds
- Spread: Las Vegas +9 (-110) | Denver -9 (-110)
- Moneyline: Las Vegas +375 | Denver -500
- Over/Under: Over 42.5 (-110) | Under 42.5 (-110)
Betting Trend to Know

Weather Conditions
Expect a crisp, dry evening in Denver, with temperatures dipping from the upper 50s°F at kickoff to the low 40s°F by the end of the game. Skies should remain mostly clear after a brief shower earlier in the day, with no additional rain expected.
With dry conditions and slightly cooler temperatures, reliable ball handling and footwork should be achievable, benefiting timing routes and precise passing. The cool will make the football stiffer, reducing hang time and overall kick distance, although the altitude favors extended field goals.
The consistent temperature drop could also test stamina, particularly for rotating defensive fronts, while the thin air can benefit teams that maintain tempo without many substitutions.
