49ers vs Eagles Prediction

In this 49ers vs Eagles Prediction, the Eagles are coming as -4.5-point home favorites. Both teams have almost identical overall records this season but the 49ers have been a much better road team and are 6-1 in their last 7 games and 5-2 against the spread. On the flip side, the Eagles are 3-4 in their last 7 games and 3-4 against the spread and have a weaker offense than the 49ers, so I think that they are being overvalued in this spot. The 49ers are also 3-2 in their last 5 visits in Philly and I expect them to keep this one close. Take the 49ers and get the +4.5 points in this one.
