Eagles open as slight road underdogs for Week 6 matchup with Vikings

The Philadelphia Eagles and Minnesota Vikings are set to rekindle their intense rivalry on Sunday and for the second time this season, the Birds will break out the underdog mask. The Vikings will enter Sunday’s contest as three-point favorites for the matchup at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis on Sunday afternoon according to BetMGM.

The Eagles were underdogs two weeks ago when they scored the 34-27 upset win over the Green Bay Packers. The Eagles have a banged up secondary that will be tested by Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs. Dalvin Cook will also be a tough cover, as he’s currently second in the NFL with 92 carries for 592 yards and five touchdowns.
