The Arizona Cardinals kick off 2021 opening up preseason play on Friday night as favorites and hosts of the Dallas Cowboys, according to oddsmakers in Vegas.

Per FanDuel, the Cardinals are 2-point favorites against America’s team as they open up preseason play.

It will be the Cowboys’ second game of the preseason, after playing in the Hall of Fame Game last week.

Don’t think the Cardinals can cover the spread and win by three points? That’s okay, the money line for the game is even between both teams at -110.

Vegas is expecting a decent amount of points between the two teams, setting the total points line at 38.5.

Only one preseason game this week has a higher total points line, the Chiefs and 49ers at 39.

Kickoff for the Cards’ preseason opener against the Cowboys is scheduled for 7 p.m.

You can listen to coverage live right here on 98.7 FM Arizona’s Sports Station.
