The Thursday Night Football matchup between the New Orleans Saints and the Los Angeles Rams is not the most intriguing of primetime matchups.

It should garner plenty of viewership, however, as families gather around for the holidays.

If you are going to be tuning in and want to have some skin in the game, here is a trend that you should be paying attention to.

Home teams have struggled during Thursday Night Football games.

Thursday home teams are just 32-36 straight-up and 26-42 against the spread since 2020, including 23-37 ATS in night Thursday games. All other days of the week, home teams are 87-77-3 ATS in night games.

Even if you look away from the spread and focus on the moneyline, the trend remains the same. Since 2020, home teams are only 30-30 SU on Thursday nights. They are 99-68 SU (59%) on all other nights.

The Saints are 4-point underdogs and +165 on the moneyline against the Rams on Thursday night. And this profitable Thursday night trend would point to taking the underdog.
