Houston Texans have an ideal opportunity to win AFC South when they host the Jacksonville Jaguars. They have a 10-5 record for the season and have already made it through to the play-offs. Winning the division will guarantee them home games in the play-offs and they will be confident of a win here. Last week saw them lose 32-30 to Philadelphia Eagles but a win for New Orleans Saints over Pittsburgh Steelers guaranteed their play-off spot. The loss to Philadelphia was their second in the last three but had won their last five home games before that. They won the reverse fixture with Jacksonville 20-7.

The visitors are 5-10 for the season and have only won one of their five games against other teams in the division. They won at Miami last week but before that had seen their play-off hopes perish in Week 14 after eight game out of the last nine. Jacksonville have only won two away games all season and with Houston having so much to play for, this looks booked for a home win.
