The Los Angeles Chargers are 7-point favorites over the New Orleans Saints in Week 8 of the 2024 regular season. The over/under is 40.5 points, per BetMGM Sportsbook.

That means oddsmakers are taking bets on whether the two teams will combine to score more than or fewer than 40.5 points.

My score prediction for the game is a 21-16 win for the Chargers, with a combined total of 37 points. So, if I were putting money based on my prediction, I'd bet the under.

As for game picks, analysts believe Los Angeles is going to win.
