Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Giants Odds, Picks & Predictions
Adam Thompson | 5 mins
Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles, the No. 1 seed in the NFC, host familiar foes in the NFL Divisional Round playoffs: Daniel Jones and the New York Giants. The third-and-final matchup between NFC East rivals is Saturday night at Lincoln Financial Field, with the winner advancing to the NFC Championship Game.
The Eagles took both regular-season meetings, rolling 48-22 in the opener before squeaking by a 22-16 road win in Week 18. They earned a first-round bye, which allowed key players, including Hurts, additional time to heal. The Giants traveled to Minnesota and took care of the Vikings 31-24.
Philly is favored by 7.5 points in the latest Giants vs. Eagles odds, while the total is currently at 48 points on NFL betting sites. New York has covered five straight games.
Bookies.com NFL handicapper Adam Thompson – focused on hitting over 60% of his NFL picks for a fourth-consecutive season – reveals his picks and props for the important rematch.
Giants vs. Eagles Point Spread Pick
Philly steamrolled New York 48-22 in Week 14, but only 22-16 in the season finale that was more important for the Eagles. We’re getting a good number here for a team that seems to have figured it out and has two defeats to pick apart – with the likely Coach of the Year doing the picking.
While the surging Giants have covered the spread in six straight, the Eagles have failed to cover in four straight. They’re just 1-5 ATS when laying more than seven points on sports betting apps. Philly is a great team at home, but the Giants are in a good spot and should feel confident. Back New York getting more than a TD.

Giants vs. Eagles Over/Under Best Bet
These teams combined for 70 points in the first meeting – the Eagles had 48 by themselves. Only 38 was put up the last faceoff in Week 18, but the Giants sat a number of key players. The last two games that mattered, New York managed 38 and 31 points and is humming on the ground and through the air (enough to keep defenses honest, anyway).
Philly ranks No. 3 in scoring and 28.9 ppg when Jalen Hurts plays. Each team should get to at least 21 points, and either or both could get higher. I’m not sure anyone is stopping anyone enough at Lincoln Financial. Lock in the Over as a secondary play for Saturday night.
Giants vs. Eagles Moneyline Pick
The Eagles are -350 on the moneyline, meaning it takes a $350 wager to win $100 in profit on a Philly win. Conversely, the Giants are at +290 (wager $100 to win $290 in profit).
A lot of the trends favor New York overall, but many of them are related to the spread. That, and current trajectories, have us on the Giants with points. Straight up? The Eagles are still the better team with the better defense, but since we think New York sticks close to the end, we’re not backing the Eagles at that price.
Best Giants vs. Eagles Player Props
Saquon Barkley, Over 25.5 Receiving Yards
Odds: -110 at BetMGM ➜
The Eagles sold out in stopping Barkley in the first meeting, and it worked, holding him to 28 yards in a 26-point win. But Philly ranks poorly in covering RBs out of the backfield and receiving has become a bigger part of Saquon’s offense.
He had five catches for 56 yards last weekend vs. the Vikings and has five-plus catches and 33 or more yards in three of the last four games. New York is going to find a way to get their stud touches.
Daniel Jones, Over 44.5 Rushing Yards
Odds: -115 at DraftKings ➜
Jones exploded for a season-high 17 carries and 78 yards in last week’s upset win at Minnesota. That fits a trend: When Jones rushes at least 10 times, the Giants are 6-0-1. When he doesn’t, they’re 4-6. The Eagles rank 28th in rush yards allowed to QBs.
