The Los Angeles Chargers enter Week 1 as the second-largest favourites of the round with a –9.5 point spread (per FOX Sports/Covers.com, as of 8 Sep 2026). The Arizona Cardinals are among the weaker NFC West sides and travel as significant underdogs. Moneyline odds imply approximately –380 to –400 for the Chargers, equating to a ~79% implied win probability. The forecast accounts for the standard NFL upset factor (~20–25% of large-spread home favourites still lose).

Verdict: Miss

Die Arizona Cardinals besiegten die Los Angeles Chargers auswärts mit 26:14 (SoFi Stadium, 13. September 2026) – entgegen der Vorhersage. Obwohl die Chargers mit –9,5 Punkten Spread als klare Favoriten galten, litten sie das gesamte Spiel über und erzielten nur 268 Gesamtyards gegenüber 393 der Cardinals. Kicker Chad Ryland trug vier Field Goals bei; es war Arizonas erster Auswärtssieg in Los Angeles seit 2001 und der größte Upset von Week 1 2026 laut NBC Sports.

Borussia Dortmund defeats SV 07 Elversberg — Bundesliga Matchday 9 (Signal Iduna Park, 7 November 2026, confirmed via bundesliga.com or DFL by 7 November 2026, 18:00 CET)

BVB sits 2nd in the Bundesliga after 8 matchdays (18 pts) with the best defence in the league (6 goals conceded). Bookmaker odds for a Dortmund home win imply ~79% (quote ~1.26); statistical models put BVB at 74.96%. Expected Goals: BVB 2.47 xG vs. Elversberg 0.81 xG. Elversberg failed to score in three consecutive away fixtures — no other club in the division is currently as barren on the road. Probability set slightly below market implied to account for Elversberg's proven giant-killing capacity this season.

RB Leipzig defeats FC Augsburg — Bundesliga Matchday 9 (Red Bull Arena, Leipzig, 7 November 2026, confirmed via bundesliga.com or DFL by 7 November 2026, 18:00 CET)

RB Leipzig have never lost a Bundesliga home fixture against FC Augsburg (10 games: 9 wins, 1 draw). Augsburg are currently on a 6-match winless run (3 draws, 3 losses) — the longest such drought in the top flight right now. Winger Antonio Nusa is in excellent form; a Leipzig win would set a Bundesliga record against Augsburg. Bookmaker odds imply ~60% (quote ~1.65); the unblemished home record and Augsburg's poor form justify raising the estimate to 65%.
