Two unbeaten teams the Philadelphia Eagles and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will clash at the Raymond James Stadium on Monday (Tues 00:15 BST).
Eagles @ Buccaneers game pick
There’s no doubt this is a great game. The Eagles are 7/1 to win the Superbowl but the Buccs have started the season strong, also going 2-0.
Although Tampa Bay are just 3-8ATS in their last 11 home games, the Eagles have posted the same record through their last 11 road trips.
Since the start of last season, just three of the Eagles’ nine road games have been decided by more than five points in their favour.
They began this season with a five-point win on the road against the Patriots and slipped past the Vikings by a single score back at home.
The Bucs also won a close one against the Vikings before Baker Mayfield threw for 317 yards in a 10-point win over the Bears.
His blossoming partnership with Mike Evans and the overall level of Tampa Bay’s offence this season should be enough to keep this one close.
Bet: Tampa Bay Buccaneers +5.5
Eagles @ Buccaneers prop bets
Jalen Hurts threw for a combined 363 yards against the Vikings and Patriots. However, with their run game less likely to beat fruit against Tampa, expect him to feature more on Monday.
Prop: Jalen Hurts Over 30.5 passing attempts
Having mentioned the partnership that Baker Mayfield and Mike Evans are building, it’s worth noting he’s pulled in six catches in each of his first two games.
Prop: Mike Evans Over 4.5 receptions
Another player receiving plenty of the ball is AJ Brown. Even though Philadelphia destroyed the Vikings with their run game, Brown had six completions in that game and 16 this season.
Prop: AJ Brown Over 5.5 receptions
The Eagles picked up 275 rushing yards last week, 175 of which belonged to D’Andrew Swift. It won’t be so easy this week against the Bucs who have allowed 108 this season.
