2023 XFL odds, line, spread picks: Week 6 predictions from pro football expert includes Vipers among best bets

The top two teams in the XFL collide when the 5-0 D.C. Defenders host the 4-1 Houston Roughnecks in a Week 6 showdown on Monday night at Audi Field in Washington, D.C. The Defenders lead the North division by two games. Meanwhile the Roughnecks sit atop the South division by one game.

Kickoff is 7 p.m. ET. D.C. is a 2.5-point favorite in the latest Defenders vs. Roughnecks odds, while the over/under for total points scored is 42. Elsewhere in the league, the Sea Dragons hit the road to face the Guardians, the Vipers host the Battlehawks and the Renegades and Brahmas conduct a Texas tussle in Arlington. 

Before you make any Roughnecks vs. Defenders picks or XFL predictions of your own, you need to hear what pro football expert R.J. White has to say.

White, a Fantasy and gambling editor for CBS Sports, consistently crushes against-the-spread picks and went 535-450-30 on his ATS picks from 2017-22, which returned more than $3,500 to $100 players. He also closed the 2022 NFL season on an incredible 107-80-6 run on his last 193 against-the-spread and total NFL picks, returning more than $1,800 for $100 bettors.

White has crushed not only the NFL but also the XFL during its abbreviated 2020 season, going 16-4 on XFL ATS picks before the league suspended operations. Anyone who has followed him is WAY UP.

Now, White has locked in four plays for every Week 6 XFL game. We can tell you that he's picking the Vipers (+3) to cover against the Battlehawks. "The Battlehawks are coming off an embarrassing defensive performance in which they surrendered 248 yards and four TDs on the ground, with two of the scores going for 60-plus yards," White told SportsLine.

But he has three other plays, including one on a team with a defense that "should have a field day" in Week 6. You ABSOLUTELY need to see his picks before making any of your own.
