The Miami Dolphins head west to face the San Francisco 49ers, in pursuit of their second win of the season. The 49ers look to be getting a bit healthier, as these two teams face off in Week 5 NFL action.

The 49ers are currently 8.5-point home favorites in this game, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. Here is who the experts are favoring to win this game.

Dolphins vs 49ers Picks Week 5

CBS Sports picks are from their panel of experts, numberFire picks are from their NFL game projections, Sporting News picks are from Vinnie Iyer, and betting favorites are from FanDuel Sportsbook's Week 5 NFL odds.

Winner:
CBS Sports: 49ers (7), Dolphins (1)
numberFire: 49ers
Sporting News: 49ers
Betting Favorite: 49ers -8.5

Against the Spread:
CBS Sports: 49ers (2), Dolphins (6)
Sporting News: 49ers

There is quite a bit of disagreement amongst the experts when picking this game. While nine of the 10 believe the 49ers will win straight up, just three of the nine believe they can cover the spread. However, it's possible their feels could change, if Jimmy Garoppolo is ruled active for this game.
