49ers vs Eagles Prediction

The current betting odds have the Eagles listed as a 3 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Eagles have looked great in their games all season with their 10-1 record overall and they now have the best record in the NFL. They have looked great in their home games too with their 5-0 home record and they have beaten some really good teams over the last few weeks too. Meanwhile, the 49ers have also looked great with their 8-3 record overall but 2 of their losses were in their road games. The 49ers have looked a lot better since losing 3 games in a row earlier this year but this is the same team that lost to the Eagles in the NFC Championship last season. Brock Purdy didn't get to play that full game but even with him in this one, the Eagles still have a really good defense to stifle the 49ers with. The Eagles also have a very strong home advantage and even if they lose this game, there is no way they get blown out at home by more than a field goal. The best way to place a bet here is on the Eagles to cover the spread in this game. 

49ers Eagles Prediction:  Our NFL Pick for Sunday, December 3, 2023 (4:25 pm ET start time) is Eagles 31 49ers 27.
