The Jacksonville Jaguars play the Houston Texans on Sunday, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck. We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over/under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet.

The game starts at 1 p.m. ET and can be seen on CBS.

It’s a rematch of a Week 3 meeting when the Texans traveled to EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville and handed the Jaguars a 37-17 loss. Since then, the Jaguars have won six of their last seven games to surge to the top of the AFC South, but the Texans haven’t been far behind with wins in six of their last eight.

The winner Sunday will sit atop the division standings heading into December.

  • Point spread: Jaguars -1
  • Money line: Jaguars -120 / Texans +100
  • Over-under: 48

Jaguars at Texans injury report:

The Jaguars will again be without cornerback Tyson Campbell, who is still working his way back from a nagging hamstring issue. Montaric “Buster” Brown has played well in his absence and will presumably get the start again Sunday. Jacksonville will also be without returner Jamal Agnew, who landed on injured reserve last week.

Houston ruled out three players: wide receiver Noah Brown, safety Jimmie Ward, and linebacker Jake Hansen.

Advice and prediction

Oddsmakers are bearish on the chances of Zay Jones making much of an impact in his second game back from a knee injury. His receptions total is set at just 2.5 (over is -140) and his yardage total is 30.5 (over is -120). He’s been a favorite for Trevor Lawrence when in the lineup, especially in the red zone. Those overs, and even the +300 anytime touchdown scorer prop, are enticing.

Prediction: Jaguars 30, Texans 27
