Dolphins Look to Continue Winning Ways Against Listless 49ers
The surging Miami Dolphins continue their drive toward a playoff spot on Sunday, when they look to extend their current five-game winning streak against the faltering San Francisco 49ers at Hard Rock Stadium. The 49ers ride a nine-game SU losing streak overall, and are also winless in their past six on the road.
The Dolphins improved their record to 6-4 last weekend with a narrow 14-10 win over the Los Angeles Rams in a game listed as a pick at the sportsbooks. The victory marked Miami's second straight win on the road, and fifth straight overall, both straight up and against the spread. Miami has also won five of six at home, covering in its past three. But the Dolphins have covered just once in 13 while favored by seven or more on home turf.
San Francisco's sole ATS win during its current slide came two weeks ago, covering as 13.5-point road underdogs in a 23-20 loss to Arizona. However, the 49ers are a dismal 1-6 ATS in seven while pegged as road underdogs by more than a touchdown.
Miami posted a 14-9 win as 5.5-point chalk in the 49ers' last visit eight years ago, but has otherwise been dominated in head-to-head matchups, going 2-6 SU, 1-7 ATS, over their past eight meetings.
