NFC Championship Preview & Free Betting Pick

This conference title game features one team riding a miracle victory in what it hopes to be a Super Bowl run against a team that was cast aside by the Oddsmakers even though it was the top seed coming into the NFL postseason. Only one team can win and right now the Minnesota Vikings come into Lincoln Financial Field for Sunday's NFC Championship against the Philadelphia Eagles as three-point road favorites. The consensus betting on this game slightly favors the Vikings at 52 percent in a matchup that has become too close to call from a betting standpoint.

Minnesota opened as a 3.5-point favorite coming off its improbable 29-24 victory against New Orleans on a 61-yard passing touchdown with no time left on the clock. That initial number was bet down to three points as the week progressed and with most of the online books taking action on this game you actually have to pay some extra juice for a play on Philadelphia. BetAnySports' current betting line is set at three points with no juice on the Vikings at +100 moving to -110 for the Eagles.

The betting action on the total line at BetAnySports has taken this number from 38 points to 39 points with a lean towards the OVER at 53 percent with the current betting consensus. Both of these teams boast stingy defenses and a pair of quarterbacks that have never started an NFL game on this big of a stage. While the line at 39 points is still rather low by NFL betting standards, points could be hard to come by all game long.
