The NFL is wrapping up its international games with a match between the New York Giants and the Carolina Panthers in Munich, Germany. Both teams are facing a critical point in their season, with the loser potentially having a better chance at the No. 1 overall draft pick. Despite the stakes, both teams will be looking to secure a victory. The Panthers are aiming for their second consecutive win, while the Giants are hoping to break a four-game losing streak.

The Giants have a history of starting seasons with a record of 2-7 or worse in six of their last eight seasons. On the other hand, the Panthers are also struggling with a 2-7 record, matching their win total from the previous season. New York has a perfect record of 3-0 in international games, while the Panthers will be playing their second international game after winning their first appearance in 2019.

The Giants’ strong pass rush, leading the NFL in sacks, will be a key factor in the game. Dexter Lawrence, with 9.0 sacks this year, will be looking to add to his impressive tally. However, the Panthers’ offensive line has shown improvement, ranking fifth in pressure rate allowed. Quarterback Bryce Young has struggled under pressure, with a low passer rating when facing it. The Giants will aim to capitalize on this vulnerability.

In terms of prediction, the odds seem to be in favor of the Giants. The Panthers have struggled offensively, averaging just 12.5 points per game in Bryce Young’s four starts this season. Furthermore, Young has yet to secure a win on the road. On the other hand, Daniel Jones of the Giants has performed significantly better away from home, with a higher passer rating and touchdown to interception ratio on the road. With these factors in mind, the prediction leans towards a Giants victory with a score of 27-16.

The game is set to take place on Sunday, November 10th at 9:30 a.m. ET in Munich, Germany. Viewers can catch the action on NFL Network or stream it live on fuboTV. With the Giants favored by 6.5 points, fans can expect an exciting matchup between two teams hungry for a crucial win.
