N.Y. Giants vs Dallas Cowboys Betting Trends

Updated:Dec 30, 2025 1:23 AM EST

The upcoming clash on January 4, 2026, between the Dallas Cowboys and the N.Y. Giants Giants at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ, promises an exciting conclusion to the 2025-26 NFL season. This Sunday football game will be broadcast on FOX, offering fans and bettors alike a thrilling viewing experience.

The Cowboys come in as favorites with a -5 point spread and a total points line set at 52.5, indicating expectations of a high-scoring affair. Dallas boasts a robust offensive lineup led by starting quarterback Dak Prescott, who is fully healthy and supported by a strong passing offense averaging 274 yards per game. Their pass protection and run game are solid, making them a formidable challenge for the Giants' defense.

On the other side, the Giants, starting quarterback Russell Wilson, face a tough defensive matchup but have shown resilience with an 8-8 ATS record this season. Despite some key injuries, including the questionable status of cornerbacks and defensive tackles, the Giants' defense has managed to limit opponents to an average of 218 passing yards and 145 rushing yards per game. Their offense, however, averages only 203 passing yards and 127 rushing yards, which may struggle against Dallas' aggressive pass rush and solid defensive front.

Recent form favors Dallas, who have won four of their last six games, while the Giants have struggled with a 3-7 record over the same span. The Cowboys' home advantage at MetLife Stadium, coupled with their superior stats in passing and rushing offense, makes them a strong contender. Betting trends suggest taking Dallas to cover the spread and considering the over on total points given the offensive firepower on display.
