Washington at Philadelphia Eagles
When: Monday, October 23, 8:30 p.m. ET
Where: Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Betting Line / Total: Philadelphia -4.5 / 49 Points
In an NFL season where no team has looked all that dominant, the Eagles have emerged as a legitimate Super Bowl contender. Philadelphia has the best record in the NFL heading into Sunday at 5-1 SU and 4-2 ATS, and the offense ranks third in total yards per game with 383.2 and sixth in scoring with 27.5 points per game.
The Eagles also have the best rushing defense in the NFL allowing only 65.7 rushing yards per game and rank ninth in scoring defense allowing 20.3 points per game.
While this season is off to a successful start, the Eagles would love to earn a season sweep over Washington. Philadelphia is 1-5 SU and ATS in its last six games against Washington per the OddsShark NFL Database.
Since losing to Philadelphia, Washington has bounced back with a 3-1 SU and 2-2 ATS record that includes two outright wins as underdogs. Washington has flourished as a small underdog in recent years going 12-3-1 SU and 13-3 ATS in its last 16 games as an underdog of 4.5 points or less. Washington has struggled in night games however with just seven wins in their last 29 games played in prime time.
Monday night’s total is set at 49 points. The OVER is 5-2 in Philadelphia’s last seven games with a total of 48.5 or higher.
With Dallas and New York both reeling, the Eagles could take a stranglehold over the NFC East with a win on Monday. Conversely, a Washington win would potentially set the stage for a pretty tight divisional race over the second half of the season.
