When the numbers and the odds line up this closely, it's usually a sign the gap between these two teams is real, not just a betting-market quirk.

Betting lines, like win probabilities, are a snapshot, not a forecast set in stone, and they can shift right up until the 9/27 - 1:00 PM EDT start time as injury news, weather, and public money move the market.
