49ers vs. Eagles odds analysis

With just hours remaining before kickoff, the Eagles are now trading at -3 at Caesars, after spending much of the week at -2.5 with increased juice on their side of the spread. Are other sportsbooks likely to follow suit or are they more comfortable keeping the line at Eagles -2.5 with increased juice? 

As for the total, the number opened at 45, and despite 60% of bets on the Under, it has gone up to as high as 45.5 at all of the major sportsbooks. We’ve seen this type of movement often this postseason, such as last weekend when the Cincinnati Bengals were a popular pick, but the spread kept growing in favor of the Buffalo Bills. Ultimately, the public was right.

49ers vs. Eagles pick

Eagles -2.5 (-115 via Caesars Sportsbook) vs. 49ers ⭐⭐⭐

This is a tough game to pick whether looking at player props, the spread, or the total. The 49ers are the hottest team in football, and they have the best-scoring defense in the league. They have allowed just two teams to score 30 or more against them this year. That’s been a recipe for success, as they’re averaging 26.8 points per game, tied for fourth most in the NFL, and they have scored more than 30 in four of their last five games.

Yet, the Eagles’ numbers are just as impressive. Despite being without Hurts for two games at the end of the season, the Eagles still averaged the second-most points in the league, and their defense has been one of the most underrated units in all of football this season. We’ve seen both of these teams win by scoring in the 20s, but we’ve also seen them win shootouts. Therefore, it’s hard to know exactly what kind of game we’re going to get on Sunday.

However, we’re taking the Eagles for two reasons. First, they have been fantastic at home this season. They're 8-2 and though their only loss with Hurts under center did come at Lincoln Financial Field, they outscored their opponents by an average of 12.5 points in their home victories. Five of their 10 home games were against playoff teams. Second, they have Hurts who has been the most dynamic player in the NFL all season.

The 49ers are allowing just 79 yards rushing per game, which makes it hard to trust Hurts’ prop, but if he can add to his 794 rushing yards, it could take the 49ers out of their game plan. This is a tough game to pick, but the Eagles have the slight edge and should probably be favored by more than three.

The five major sportsbooks are all in agreement on the line for this game, but DraftKings is offering a slightly inflated price for the Eagles. Therefore, if you're on the 49ers, the best place to bet is DraftKings, but if you are on the Eagles, any of the other four major sportsbooks are fine to bet at. 

Interestingly, DraftKings is offering the best Eagles’ moneyline, so if you’re looking to parlay their outright win with other props, then DraftKings is the best place to do so. And finally, Caesars is offering the lowest total, so if you like the Eagles and the Over, then Caesars is the place to go.
