Jaguars and Eagles Set for NFL London Game in Week 5
The Jacksonville Jaguars will host the Philadelphia Eagles in a Week 5 NFL London Game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with kickoff scheduled for 9:30 a.m. ET. The Jaguars, holding a 3-1 record, are coming off consecutive victories, including a 22-17 win against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 4. In contrast, the Eagles, currently at 2-2, have lost their last two games and are facing several player absences, including Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith due to hamstring injuries, along with the recent retirement of offensive tackle Lane Johnson.
In terms of betting odds, the Jaguars are favored by 7.5 points, with an over/under set at 41.5 points. Historically, Jacksonville has a 7-7 record in international games, while Philadelphia remains undefeated in two previous outings. The SportsLine model, which has successfully predicted NFL outcomes, suggests that the total points will likely go under 41.5, given the Jaguars' strong defensive performance and the Eagles' offensive struggles.
The model has shown a profitable track record, having generated over $7,000 for $100 players since its inception. It has also indicated that the under has been a common outcome in recent games for both teams, particularly for the Eagles against AFC opponents.
