Prediction published on 15/11/2019, 10:27  by Steve Ashfield | Modified on 15/11/2019 at 11:27 in NFL Predictions

The New Orleans Saints look to strengthen their position at the top of the NFC South. They have a 7-2 record for the season and travel to Tampa Bay Buccaneers who are third in that division with a 3-6 record. New Orleans are ranked third overall in the NFC  as they bid to reach the NFC Championship final for the second season in a row. Their opponents 13th and looking very unlikely to get anywhere near a wild card position. The Saints are 1-1 for the season against other sides in the NFC South with Tampa Bay at 1-2.  Only one of their first eight games of the season were lost, that was against the LA Rams in week 2. They lost their second match last week when being beaten at home by Atalanta Falcons. They have already beaten Tampa Bay once this season, a 31-24 home win in week five.

Tampa Bay have had a 5-11 record for the last two seasons and it's 12 years since they made it to the play-offs. Another unsuccessful season looks on the cards this season with six of their first nine matches being lost. They didn't make that bad a start to the season though and were 2-2 at one stage. Then they lost four games in a row before beating Arizona Cardinals last week 30-27. That game was level after the first three quarters but the Buccaneers won the final quarter 10-7. Go for the Saints to get another win over the Buccaneers.
