49ers vs Eagles Betting Prediction
Philadelphia comes into this game with only one loss on the season and they are on a five game winning streak, but they are a underdog in this matchup. The Eagles have won a bunch of close games lately and every time you think they are done, they find a way to win. San Francisco went through a three game losing streak about a month ago, but they are much healthier now and are on a three game winning streak. The 49ers are destroying teams right now and have out scored their last three opponents by a total of 92-30. This should be a great game between two of the top teams in the NFL, but I am going to side with San Francisco here. The 49ers are playing at an unreal level right now and I think they get the win here.
