Detroit Lions Odds

Detroit Lions Odds, Bet Types, and Team History

The Lions enter the 2025 season with plenty of hype. They set a franchise record with 15 wins in 2024 and earned the NFC’s No. 1 seed. However, their season ended in the divisional round with a home loss to the Washington Commanders. Now, the Lions have their eyes on a Super Bowl run.

Optimism surrounds Detroit everywhere. Dan Campbell stands as the “it” coach of the moment, Aidan Hutchinson has delivered on his high draft status, Amon-Ra St. Brown has become the new receptions star, and Jared Goff has won over the city.

Detroit featured an electrifying offense last season, but the defense suffered a barrage of late-season injuries. Hutchinson missed more than half the year with a broken leg, and his return should deliver a massive boost to the team.

The biggest losses this offseason came on the coaching staff. Offensive coordinator Ben Johnson left to become the Chicago Bears’ head coach, while defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn took over the New York Jets. The question now is whether the Lions can remain one of the league’s elite teams without them.

Detroit opens the season on Sept. 7 on the road against the Packers. Oddsmakers set the Lions’ over/under for wins at 10.5.

Betting on the Detroit Lions

Detroit Lions Point Spreads

Betting point spreads mean you wager on whether a team wins or loses by a specific number of points. Here’s an example:

• Vikings +4.5 (+110)
• Lions -4.5 (-110)

In this situation, the Vikings enter as 4.5-point underdogs against the Lions. If Detroit wins by five or more points, a $100 wager on the Lions pays $90.91. If Minnesota wins outright or loses by four points or fewer, a $100 wager pays $110 plus the original $100, for a total return of $210.

Lions Over/Unders

Over/under, also called the point total, is a wager on the combined scoring of a single game. Bookmakers set a number, and you can bet either the over or — you guessed it — the under. Here’s how it works:

Suppose the Packers play the Lions and the over/under is 45 points. A bet on the over wins if Green Bay and Detroit score 46 or more total points. A bet on the under wins if the two teams score 44 or fewer points. The wager can also push if the game ends with exactly 45 points scored.

Detroit Lions Moneylines

Betting on the moneyline is simple—here’s an example:

• Lions -125
• Bears +105

The minus (-) and plus (+) signs show the favorite and the underdog, making Detroit the favorite in this matchup. You can better understand odds by thinking in $10 or $100 increments. A $125 wager on the Lions nets $100 in profit. For underdogs, it works the opposite way: with the Bears at +105, a $100 wager profits $105.

Bettors also use moneylines in parlays, which combine multiple bets into one. For example, if you bet the Lions moneyline and a -2.5 point spread, Detroit must win by at least three points for the bet to cash. The risk increases, but so does the reward with boosted odds. Use our Odds Calculator to figure out any bet amount or conversion.

Detroit Lions Props

Player props let you wager on a single player and tie the bet to one stat from the box score of a game or even the entire season. Many bettors find these wagers especially fun, especially if you already play fantasy football and enjoy the player-specific focus. Check out a hypothetical example below:

Jared Goff passing yards: 3,900.5

FAQ: How prop betting works

Lions Futures

• Detroit Lions odds to win the NFC North (+160)
• Detroit Lions odds to win the NFC (+500)
• Detroit Lions odds to win the Super Bowl (+1100)
• Jared Goff’s odds to win MVP (+3000)
