Best bets for Monday, January 12

The Steelers managed to survive in Week 18 against the Ravens to win the AFC North and will now host a Texans team which enters the postseason on a nine-game winning streak. Houston's defense is among the best in the league and Pittsburgh has been able to field a solid unit at home on that side of the ball, but the SportsLine Projection Model has the Over on 38 hitting in 55% of simulations. The model likes Pittsburgh to cover in 53% of simulations and has the Steelers winning 49% of the time to bring value as +133 underdogs.

The Los Angeles Lakers will try to snap a two-game losing streak when they meet the Sacramento Kings Monday evening. The Kings have been bad this season, winning just two of their last 10 games and nine overall on the year. The Lakers continue to be without Austin Reaves but Luka Doncic and LeBron James should be good to go for this contest. L.A. is a 9.5-point favorite in the latest SportsLine consensus odds and despite Sacramento's struggles, the model has the Kings covering in 54% of simulations.
