Meeting statistics

The current form of the Seattle Seahawks

The Seahawks (3-1) lost 29-42 on Monday night in Detroit as they were unable to control and keep up with the Lions while missing several defense players, including former Giants Leonard Williams and Julian Love, before and during the game. Lions quarterback Jared Goff set an NFL record by completing 18 of 18 throws for 292 passing yards and two scores in the win against Seattle’s weak defensive line.

After missing two games, Kenneth Walker III made a spectacular comeback against the Lions, rushing 12 times for 80 yards and three touchdowns in addition to adding four receptions. In Week 4, the Giants stopped Dallas’ running game, but we anticipate that Walker will play a significant part on Sunday as well.

The current form of the New York Giants

In Week 5, on Sunday afternoon, the Giants (1-3) travel to the Pacific Northwest for the first time this season. The “Big Blue” is recovering from a lethargic offensive showing last Thursday night against the Cowboys, where they were forced to settle for five field goals instead of scoring a touchdown, losing 15-20.

The more worrying news for the Giants is that wide receiver Malik Nabers, a first-round choice, is now listed as doubtful. He sustained a concussion late in the team’s Week 4 loss. Given that Nabers’ concussion may be a concern for this game, Wan’Dale Robinson ought to be a target hog. Week 4 saw 11 catches on 14 targets for the former second-round pick, who now has 26 catches on 38 targets for the season.

Head-to-head

This week’s game marks the third consecutive regular-season meeting between these two NFC clubs; in their two previous meetings, the Seahawks prevailed 51-16 overall against the Giants. In total, the Seahawks are 9-5 in head-to head.

Match analytics

The Giants must win a game as underdogs on any American football betting site with a good reputation, and a convincing one at that if they hope to salvage this season. For the last two seasons, Geno Smith and the Seahawks have made the “Big Blue” blue. The uncertainty surrounding Nabers’ status in the concussion protocol adds to the difficulty of this task. Can the Giants play a perfect game? Currently, it’s difficult to invest in that, so we predict a comfortable margin in the favor of Seattle.

Tip: Seattle Seahawks -9.50, with odds of 2.36 on PlanetOfBets.
