Giants vs. Eagles Prediction and Odds

There are few rivalries in football that go back as long as this, with these sides first locking horns in 1933. That matchup ended in a very one-sided contest that the Giants ended up winning 56-0.

Things have been a lot closer most of the time in the 181 times the sides have met since then though. It remains amazingly tight, with the all-time series currently being led by the Eagles 91-88-2. After all this time, it still only takes a tiny streak from one side to be at the top of the historical record again!

This rivalry is spurred on by the rivalry that exists outside of sports between Ney Work and Philadelphia and also within other spots, such as in Major League Baseball. There’s plenty of tension that builds up when these cities take each other on the football field, and it’s made from some cracking matches in the past that have kept fans on the edge of their seats.

It’s widely regarded as one of the NFL’s best-ever rivalries that have had very high moments as well as lasting for so long.

Giants vs. Eagles Odds and Statistics

These sides have met each other in the postseason four times, winning two matches apiece. Both sides have also enjoyed glory years around similar times, such as in the early 1980s, early 2000s, and early 2010s.

Both sides have had long win streaks in the series, with the Giants’ record stretch coming all the way back in 1938 in a 9-game stretch that lasted until 1942, which gave them an impressive head start in the series.

The Eagles broke their record by the 1970s though, winning a 12-game streak between 1975 and 1981 that had New York fans in despair for years. Philadelphia will be looking to expand their 2-game streak to 3 during the Giants vs. Eagles 01/08/23 fixture.

Giants vs. Eagles NFL Betting Tips: The Season So Far

Giants

The Giants have had a very solid season and are probably a bit hard done by not already wrapped up better odds of reaching the playoffs already. They know that Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley could be saying their farewells here, so the side will be fighting to make it through to the postseason so they can be potentially sent away on a high.

Wide receiver Darius Slayton has been an unexpected strength in the side this year. Expectations for him weren’t huge going into game week 1, but he’s nailed down the starting spot now, and he’s shown a great attitude to turn around his story. The Giants would likely have been out of the discussion for postseason weeks ago if the offense hadn’t been able to rely on the pleasant surprise that he’s provided.

Eagles

It’s hard to find anyone that disagrees with the Eagles being the best side in the league. Their impressive 12-3 record in their challenging division speaks for itself. They can blow teams away at times but also know how to dig deep to get themselves over the finish line.

We think it’d be a surprise if they didn’t make it to the Super Bowl, with the only negative being Jalen Hurts’ shoulder injury, how quickly the team can adjust and how soon he’ll be back.
