NFL London Games betting doesn't have to be as bad as English fries. Remember, International NFL games count just the same in the win-loss column as those played in the USA, and can be a profitable source for bettors looking in the right markets.
Each year since 2007, the NFL has brought America's game to London, England as part of its NFL International Series. The 2024 NFL London campaign has three games on the docket in England, with contests split between the brand-new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and the traditional stomping grounds of Wembley Stadium.
Here are some historical trends from these NFL London games you should keep in mind when playing your wagers this season:
NFL London Games Betting History
| Betting Market | Record |
|---|---|
| Favorites (Moneyline) | 23-12-1 (65.6%) |
| Favorites (Spread) | 19-16 (51.5%) |
| OVER | 16-18 (48.5%) |
There are few notable trends from the last 15 years of NFL London games. However, favorites have been getting it done outright.
If you tweak the market slightly, there is profit to be had betting on the OVER. While the standard OVER is hitting at just above 50%, when that OVER hits the total is averaging out to 54.6 total points – well above any normal line.
So, if you're looking to base your future London picks off some historical NFL trends, I'd keep an eye on the straight up favorites and some alternate line OVERs.
Recent London NFL Results
| Date | Winning Team | Score | Losing Team | Score | Spread | Total | OVER/UNDER |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oct 13,2024 | Bears | 35 | Jaguars | 16 | Bears -1.5 | 44.5 | OVER |
| Oct 6, 2024 | Vikings | 23 | Jets | 17 | MIN -2.5 | 40.5 | UNDER |
| Oct 15, 2023 | Ravens | 24 | Titans | 16 | BAL -5.5 | 42.5 | UNDER |
| Oct 8, 2023 | Jaguars | 25 | Bills | 20 | BUF -4.5 | 48.5 | UNDER |
| Oct. 1, 2023 | Jaguars | 23 | Falcons | 7 | JAC -3.5 | 42.5 | UNDER |
| Oct 30, 2022 | Broncos | 21 | Jaguars | 17 | JAC -1 | 40.5 | UNDER |
After the UNDER hit in five straight NFL London games, the OVER finally came through for bettors who love scoring. Perhaps its the travel, or the terrible food in England causing NFL teams to struggle to score points in the U.K. This is certainly a trend to keep an eye on as the Jaguars vs Patriots NFL London game gets underway on Oct. 20, 2024.
Unfortunately for Jags fans and bettors, Jacksonville hasn't had much success in their 11 NFL London games. The Jaguars are 5-6 straight up and 5-6 against the spread in those 11 contests.
What Are This Year's London Games?
There are actually five international NFL games this season, with three taking place in London:
- (Sept 6): Packers vs Eagles (Corinthians Arena - Sao Paulo, Brazil)
- (Oct 6): Jets vs Vikings (Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - London, England)
New York Jets vs Minnesota Vikings, Oct. 6, 9:30 am ET
| Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
| New York Jets | +2.5 (-105) | +128 | O 40.5 (-115) |
| Minnesota Vikings | -2.5 (-115) | -152 | U 40.5 (-105) |
[fanduel:FanDuel-2399814]
After their 31-29 victory over the Green Bay Packers, the 4-0 Minnesota Vikings enter this Week 5 NFL London game as 2.5-point favorites over the Jets.
Meanwhile, the Jets fell 10-9 in a brutal showing against the Denver Broncos in Week 4. Greg Zuerlein missed a game-winning 50-yard field goal attempt as time expired.
Beware before betting on New York in this one. Per Outlier, the Jets are just 2-7 SU in their last nine games as underdogs.
- (Oct 13): Jaguars vs Bears (Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - London, England)
Jacksonville Jaguars vs Chicago Bears, Oct. 13, 9:30 am ET
| Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
| Jacksonville Jaguars | +1.5 (-105) | +110 | O 44.5 (-115) |
| Chicago Bears | -1.5 (-115) | -130 | U 44.5 (-105) |
The Jags continue to play at least two games per season in London, so they'll be far more adjusted to the traveling quirks than the Chicago Bears. However, bare in mind, the Jaguars are jut 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games. Doug Pederson is one of the favorites to be the next NFL head coach fired, and after Robert Saleh was dismissed following his teams' lost in London, we could be looking at a brand new betting trend.
On top of that, the Chicago Bears are an impressive 8-2-2 ATS in their last 12 games.
- (Oct 20): Patriots vs Jaguars (Wembley Stadium - London, England)
New England Patriots vs Jacksonville Jaguars, Oct. 20, 9:30 am ET
| Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
| New England Patriots | +5.5 (-105) | +198 | O 42.5 (-115) |
| Jacksonville Jaguars | -5.5 (-115) | -240 | U 42.5 (-105) |
The Jags will be favorites over the putrid New England Patriots for their second straight game from London. This is a battle of terrible football teams, both in real life and in the betting landscape. The Patriots are 0-5 SU and 0-4-1 ATS in their last five games, while the Jaguars are just 1-6 SU and 2-5 ATS in their last five. Bet on this one at your own peril.
- (Nov 10): Giants vs Panthers (Allianz Arena - Munich, Germany)
