Game: Philadelphia Eagles at Green Bay Packers

Date: November 10th at 8:15 PM ET

Where to Watch: ABC/ESPN

Monday Night Football brings us a high-caliber matchup with major NFC playoff implications, as the Philadelphia Eagles travel to Green Bay, Wisconsin to take on the Packers. Philadelphia comes into this one riding a two-game winning streak and should be well-rested after their bye last week. Statistically, the Eagles haven’t been stellar offensively, ranking 23rd in total yards (304.4 per game), but they’ve made the most of their opportunities, averaging 26 points per game (10th in the NFL). Defensively, they’ve been somewhat underwhelming by their standards, sitting 20th in yards allowed (336.3) and 15th in points allowed (23.1).

On the other side, the Packers are looking to bounce back after a disappointing loss to the Carolina Panthers — a game many expected them to win comfortably. Still, this remains a well-rounded team. Offensively, Green Bay ranks 10th in total yards (360.4 per game) and 11th in scoring (25.8 points per game). Their defense has been a key strength, allowing just 286.4 yards per game (4th) and 20.8 points per game (8th).

With both teams battling for NFC positioning and playoff momentum, expect a physical, tightly contested matchup under the lights at Lambeau Field.

Weather

Much different from last week in Green Bay, this matchup will finally bring true Lambeau Field conditions, with temperatures expected to sit in the mid to high 20s throughout the game. Precipitation shouldn’t be a factor, but winds could play a minor role, averaging around 7 mph with gusts reaching up to 16 mph.

Betting Overview

Preseason, this matchup actually opened with Philadelphia as a slight favorite at -1.5. As the season has progressed and the game approaches, the line has flipped, with Green Bay reaching as high as -2.5 at one point. Most sportsbooks now have the Packers favored by -1 to -1.5. The moneyline has remained tight, with Philadelphia sitting around even odds and Green Bay’s best value at -115. The total has seen minimal movement, opening at 45.5 and now ranging between 44.5 and 45.5 depending on the book.

Position Group & Coaching Comparisons

Coaching: This should be a fun chess match between two offensive-minded head coaches. Both teams have experienced their share of highs and lows this season, but it’s tough to bet against a coaching staff that just won the Super Bowl.

DLs vs. OLs: This matchup could very well be decided in the trenches. Philadelphia has the edge on the offensive line, while Green Bay has been stronger on the defensive front. Overall, the Packers get a slight advantage up front.

QBs: Both quarterbacks have had strong seasons for their teams. Jordan Love came out of the gates hot but has cooled off recently, while Jalen Hurts seems to be hitting his stride after some midseason struggles. With fresh legs coming off the bye, the edge goes to Hurts.

RBs & TEs vs. LBs: Expect a competitive battle over the middle, even with Tucker Kraft sidelined. Saquon Barkley gives the Eagles the edge at running back, and their tight end group is more reliable as well. Both teams, however, boast talented linebacker rooms.

WRs vs. Secondaries: Green Bay’s secondary has been one of the league’s best, while Philadelphia counters with an elite receiving corps. Given how the Eagles’ offense operates, this one slightly favors the Packers.

Betting Trends

Philadelphia enters this matchup with a solid 5-3 record against the spread this season. They’ve been particularly strong on the road, going 3-1, and have performed well in conference play with a 4-2 mark. Totals have also leaned toward the over in Eagles games, hitting in 5 of 8 overall, 3 of 4 on the road, and 5 of 6 within the conference.

Green Bay, on the other hand, has struggled to cover this season with a 3-5 ATS record. At Lambeau Field, they’re an even 2-2, and 2-3 against NFC opponents. Totals have been split evenly at 4-4 overall, but the under has been more common at home, hitting in 3 of 4 games, and in 3 of 5 conference matchups.

Final Thoughts

An exciting Monday night matchup is on deck, and this one has all the makings of a game that comes down to the wire. From a betting standpoint, both the spread and moneyline feel like a true toss-up, so I’d avoid taking a side altogether. Given how physical both of these teams are, I’m leaning toward the under in what could turn into a hard-fought slugfest.
