Will the Chiefs get their Super Bowl revenge?
Super Bowl Reloaded – this headline is above our Chiefs vs. Eagles tip for Saturday night. At prime time at 10:25 p.m., there will be a rematch of February’s game, and the question will be whether Patrick Mahomes and Co. can get their revenge.
Not much has changed in this matchup compared to the Super Bowl in the spring. The Eagles have lost a few regular players, but the Chiefs are missing numerous players due to suspension (Rice) or injury (Worthy, Royals). The Chiefs’ thin wide receiver corps could prove to be particularly important in this duel – to the detriment of Kansas City.
For this reason, our prediction for Chiefs vs. Eagles is another triumph for Philadelphia. They also got off to a slightly better start to the season with their win against the Cowboys. The Chiefs, on the other hand, suffered a surprising defeat against the Chargers in Brazil.
It was already apparent that their defense is not yet running smoothly. 397 yards allowed speak for themselves, and the Eagles will certainly not score much less with Barkley, Hurts, and Brown.
Kick-off for the Super Bowl rematch is on Sunday at 10:25 p.m. in Kansas City. The game will be broadcast live on TV on RTL or DAZN.
Kansas City Chiefs – Philadelphia Eagles Head-to-head comparison / H2H record
As already mentioned, the last head-to-head comparison was not so long ago. Super Bowl 59 went to the Eagles quite clearly at the beginning of February with a score of 40:22, and this superiority should have continued into the new season. Even though the game is taking place at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.
Philly has won three of the last four games there, something that hardly any other team in the NFL has managed to do. With their outstanding running game, the Eagles can perfectly pull apart the Chiefs’ defense, which then leads to space. In February’s game, they had 21-12 first downs – a very clear superiority.
And their own defense allowed over 700 yards less than the Chiefs’ in the preseason. Even though not everything worked out in the first half against Dallas, last Friday’s second half was once again a declaration of war on all other teams. So in Eagles vs. Chiefs, the odds on Philly are definitely playable, both for the win and for player bets (e.g., touchdown hurts).
Kansas City Chiefs – Philadelphia Eagles Tip
For the Eagles, Dallas Goedert’s participation is questionable, while the Chiefs are missing two key receivers in Rice and Worthy. Who can compensate for this better? The Eagles, because their game is built around the running game anyway. That’s exactly where the Chiefs are still struggling – they didn’t even break 100 yards against LA.
So, for Philly against Kansas City, a bet on the Philadelphia Eagles is once again our clear betting recommendation. This is supported by a direct comparison of recent performances, the start of the season, and the personnel situation. Only home advantage could give the Chiefs a boost here – but that’s unlikely to be enough in the end.
As the game kicks off at prime time at 10:25 p.m., live betting is also an option here. After early Chiefs points, the betting odds on Philadelphia should improve slightly, although they are still very playable even then. After all, Philly often came back from behind last year.
As a player bet, we recommend betting on a touchdown by Jalen Hurts in this matchup. He already found his way into the end zone twice against the Cowboys, and he also did so in last year’s Super Bowl. As long as the tush push remains allowed, this betting option is a great alternative in almost every game.
