The New Orleans Saints (5-8) welcome the Washington Commanders (8-5) to the Caesars Superdome Sunday. Kickoff for this NFL Week 15 matchup is set for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we look at Commanders vs. Saints odds from  before making our expert later in the week.

The Commanders beat the visiting Tennessee Titans 42-19 Dec. 1, covering as 6-point favorites. They had their bye in Week 14. Washington snapped a season-high 3-game skid with the win. Despite that, it is still 4-3-1 against the spread (ATS) over its last 8.

The Saints beat the New York Giants 14-11 Sunday in Week 14, closing as 5.5-point road favorites. They have won 3 of their last 4 games. However, they had lost 7 straight Sept. 22-Nov. 3, which likely doomed their season. New Orleans is just 2-7 ATS in its last 9 games and 3-4 ATS at home on the season.

The Saints and Commanders don’t have a rich history, but have certainly seen each other often over the last decade. Since 2012, they have played 5 times. These teams have yet to meet in the playoffs.

The Saints have won 3 meetings in a row, yet the Commanders lead the all-time series 17-11. Washington had a 6-game win streak from 1980 to 1990, the longest such streak in the history of the series.

That said, both teams are significantly different from when they last played Oct. 10, 2021, which resulted in a 33-22 win for the Saints
