It will be a battle of the birds on Sunday when the Philadelphia Eagles face the Baltimore Ravens from M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. Both of these teams appear headed to the playoffs in their respective conferences, with this game being a possible Super Bowl preview. Baltimore is a three-point favorite going into this highly-anticipated game, while the total is set at 49.5 points. Here, we hold a magnifying glass to this Eagles vs Ravens matchup and make our NFL picks for this avian affair.
Eagles On the Road Again
The Philadelphia Eagles will play their second consecutive road game on Sunday when they face the Ravens. Philadelphia was in Los Angeles in Week 12, facing the LA Rams at SoFi Stadium, and they will need to bring it on the road for a second straight week here. More important than where this game is being held will be the Eagles defense, which will need to find a way to contain Lamar Jackson after facing a more statuesque quarterback in Matt Stafford in their last outing.
Can Ravens Soar On Short Week?
Going into Week 13 of the NFL season, the Baltimore Ravens have less prep time than usual after playing on Monday Night Football against the Los Angeles Chargers. Baltimore is back home for this game after playing at SoFi Stadium the night after the Eagles did against the Rams. And home will be a welcome sight for the Ravens this week, as they enter Week 13 with a 4-1 record at home for the year. With wins over the Bills, Commanders, and Bengals at home already this season, the Ravens are battle-tested on their home-turf and will look to use that to their advantage here.
Eagles vs Ravens Betting Prediction
Both teams in this Eagles vs Ravens matchup are playing spectacular football going into Week 13. But we will take the Baltimore Ravens to win and cover the spread as a home favorite, as they have proven that they can take down some of the best teams in the league on their home turf already in 2024.
