The New Orleans Saints visit the New York Giants this Sunday, October 18, 2026. The Saints hold a 1-4 record, while the Giants are at 3-1. This suggests the Giants have been the stronger team so far in the season. That’s reflected in the betting odds, where the Giants are favored by 1.5 points at home.
The spread tells us the Giants need to win by at least two points for a bet on them to pay off. The Saints are slight underdogs, and taking them with the points could be tempting given their motivation to improve. The odds for the spread are close: -122 on the Giants and +102 on the Saints. The negative number means you’d have to bet $122 to win $100 on the Giants, while a $100 bet on the Saints would win $102 if they cover the spread.
The moneyline is even at -110 both ways, meaning a straight bet on either team to win pays about the same, regardless of the margin. This shows the matchup is expected to be close.
The total is set at 46.5 points. The under is slightly favored at -115, so betting on fewer than 47 points might be a bit safer than the over at -105. Given the teams’ records and the close spread, a tighter, lower-scoring game is a reasonable expectation.
In sum, the Giants are slight favorites at home in a close game. The under looks appealing if you expect a defensive battle or slower pace.
