This Saturday the first two games of the 2022-23 NFL Divisional Round will be played and the duel in charge of closing the day will be between the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Eagles, two representatives of the NFC East.
Those led by Jalen Hurts come off a rest during the Wild Card Round thanks to having the best record in the conference, while the Giants had to leave the Minnesota Vikings on the road in a close duel in that phase.

For this game, the television broadcast will be in charge of the FOX network at the national level, while its broadcast via streaming will be available on the NFL Game Pass platform both in the United States and in the rest of the world. In Latin America it will be broadcast on ESPN on television and on the internet through Star+.
The only thing in question for the Giants is offensive linebacker Azeez Ojulari, who has a sore quadriceps muscle and practiced on a limited basis throughout the week.
On the part of the Eagles, cornerback Avonte Maddox was ruled out, absent in training due to pain in a toe on his left foot. Both Jalen Hurts and Brandon Graham arrive available for the match despite the physical problems they had at the end of the season.
For this game, the Eagles are favorites, not only because of their remarkable performance throughout the regular season, but also because of the irregularity of the Giants’ defense. The match will be close, but the New Yorkers will give the surprise contrary to what ESPN’s duel predictor suggests, who give the locals the winners with an 80% probability.
