Minnesota Vikings at Philadelphia Eagles Preview & Picks
Philadelphia are tipped to cover as they win their home opener.
The pass rush will be in Kirk Cousins’ face all game, which is likely to result in misses and turnovers.
And on offense, Jalen Hurts’ mobility will be a problem for a Vikings defense who let Baker Mayfield scramble on them last week.
- Philadelphia are 8-3-0 ATS in their last 11 home games
- Philadelphia beat Minnesota by 17 points when they met last season
- Minnesota are 1-3-0 ATS in their last 4 games as a betting underdog
- The Under has hit in 4 of Philadelphia’s last 5 home games
Head To Head
- The all-time series is tied 15-15
- Philadelphia Eagles won 24-7 when the teams last met in September 2022
Minnesota Vikings Form
Minnesota are looking to bounce back from a season-opening defeat as they head out on the road.
The Vikings went 13-4 last season, winning a string of one-score games as they took the NFC North and made the postseason.
They fell at the first hurdle in the playoffs, losing to the New York Giants, and the overwhelming belief coming into this season is that there would be a drop-off in 2023.
Minnesota’s pre-season doubters saw that belief get backed up last weekend, as they lost their season-opener at home.
The Vikings suffered a surprise 20-17 home defeat at the hands to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Philadelphia Eagles Form
Philadelphia go into their home opener seeking improvement, despite running out winners in Week 1.
The Eagles came into the season with lofty expectations after making it all the way to the Super Bowl last season.
They came up short against the Kansas City Chiefs, but having added to an already loaded roster in the offseason, they were considered a front-runner going into opening weekend.
Philadelphia did get off to a winning start, although it was an underwhelming performance from them.
The Eagles needed three-second half field goals from 48 yards or longer to fend off the New England Patriots in a 25-20 win.
Verdict
Philadelphia stumbled through their season-opener, but there is no reason to panic.
Week 1 is about getting win and they did just that, and we are expecting improvement from the Eagles on Thursday.
