Arizona Cardinals Chances to Win vs. L.A. Rams
The Cardinals have a 51.73% chance to beat the Rams in Week 2. Their chances are calculated using implied probability based on odds from DraftKings. Here is how it is calculated for each team using -118 odds for the Cardinals and -102 odds for the Rams:
Cardinals chances: 118 ÷ (118 + 100) * 100 = 54.13%
Rams chances: 102 ÷ (102 + 100) * 100 = 50.5%
However, the above percentages add up to 104.63%. This is due to the vig, which is the house edge for the sportsbook which allows them to profit off the bet. To remove the vig, we simply divide each team's chance by 104.63.
Cardinals chances (after vig): 54.13 ÷ 104.63 = 51.73%
Rams chances (after vig): 50.5 ÷ 104.63 = 48.27%
Note that both of the final team chances above finally equal 100%. Hence, the 51.73% chance to win for the Cardinals.
How Arizona Wins vs. L.A.
On offense, this game will be dependent on how quickly Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray and receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. can establish a strong rapport. On defense, it will come down to the Arizona D containing the Rams' explosive pass-catchers, which is easier said than done.
