The Washington Commanders (3-4) and the Philadelphia Eagles (6-1) lock horns on Sunday for a Week 8 matchup at the FedEx Field. Going into this NFC East matchup, the Philadelphia Eagles sit first in the division with five wins from six matches, while the Washington Commanders are third. The Washington Commanders enter this matchup after a tough loss in their previous game. Nonetheless, they are banking on their home-field advantage to stage a comeback against the Philadelphia Eagles in this encounter.

Form Washington Commanders

The Washington Commanders were left licking their wounds when the New York Giants handed them a surprise 14-7 defeat in their last match. They now have a 3-4 record for the season and are 3-2 in the last five home games.

The Washington Commanders have scored 20.0 points per game this season, which is pretty average compared to the other NFL offenses. The defense has been nothing to brag about this season.

The Washington Commanders are determined to come back strong and make big improvements this term. Last season, they finished fourth in the NFC East, missing out on the postseason, with an 8-8-1 record.

Form Philadelphia Eagles
