Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Giants Prediction: Will the Giants' defense be at full strength?

Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Giants: Prediction for the match on October 26, 2025

On Thursday Night Football, the New York Giants shocked everyone by beating the Philadelphia Eagles by a lot. It seemed like a turning point for the NFC East. The Eagles played the Giants in East Rutherford, New Jersey, just two weeks ago. The two teams will meet again in Week 8 at Lincoln Financial Field. Let's take a closer look at the game and see what the best bets are.

Philadelphia Eagles: Form and Statistics

The Eagles lost a close game at home to the Denver Broncos after a big Super Bowl win where Vic Fangio didn't send a single blitzer after Patrick Mahomes. They then drove up I-95 for Thursday Night Football, where they had a hard time with Jaxson Dart, Cam Skattebo, and the rest of the team. The Eagles threw the ball more than usual because Quinyon Mitchell and Jalen Carter were hurt and the offensive line was hurt. They couldn't get much going, though. This made things harder for the defense, which had a hard time stopping Brian Daboll's offense. Dart and Skattebo, on the other hand, took advantage of Fangio's defense. They ran wild on a defense that is usually good at stopping the run and made just enough plays downfield to win. It was one of the Giants' biggest wins in a long time. Now, everyone was watching the Giants, and the Eagles seemed to be losing steam. Carson Wentz and the Minnesota Vikings were expected to beat the Eagles for the third time in a row. They shocked everyone by beating Minnesota 28-22, which brought their record to 5-2. The Eagles will next play the Packers in Green Bay.

Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Giants Match Prediction 25th October 2025

I like the Giants with the points. The Vikings had more yards than the Eagles, but the Eagles still won. But I don't think that kind of play will work for a long time. The Eagles want to get back at the Giants, who almost beat the Broncos before falling apart in the fourth quarter. In my opinion, the Broncos and Eagles are alike because they both have trouble scoring. I think the Giants will still be a tough team this year, so I expect them to do well here. I'm going with the Giants and the points.
