Houston travels to Nissan Stadium for an AFC South game between two teams that have been rivals since the Texans joined the league in 2002. Check the latest NFL odds as you follow along. The all-time series is tied 24-24 across 48 meetings, and the teams have never met in the playoffs. Houston has won the last three meetings: 23-14 in the 2024 regular-season finale, 26-0 in September 2025, and 16-13 in November 2025.
The rivalry carries extra history because the Titans are the former Houston Oilers, who left for Nashville in 1997. This year’s game also marks the Titans’ final season at the current Nissan Stadium. Houston’s official site noted before last season’s trip that Tennessee hadn’t beaten the Texans in Nashville since 2020, and the Texans won there again. The teams meet a second time in Week 18, on January 10, 2027, in Houston.

Spread Analysis
Houston’s three-game streak came by margins of nine, 26, and three points, so the series has produced both lopsided and tight results. With the all-time record dead even and two meetings on this year’s schedule, each staff will be preparing for a rematch as well as this game.
Total Betting Trends
The last two meetings produced 26 and 29 combined points, both low-scoring games decided by defense. For anyone following the over/under conversation, that recent pattern is worth weighing alongside how each offense has performed so far this season.
