Giants vs Panthers: Key Matchups and Predictions for NFL Munich Game

The New York Giants and the Carolina Panthers are set to face off in the final international game of the NFL‘s Week 10, taking place at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany on Sunday, November 10. Both teams are looking to turn their seasons around, with the Giants aiming to end a four-game losing streak and the Panthers seeking their second consecutive victory after defeating the New Orleans Saints 23-22 last week.

The Giants, currently 2-7, are favored by 6.5 points, with the over/under set at 40.5 points. New York has a strong pass rush, leading the NFL in sacks with 35, and will look to exploit the Panthers’ offensive line. Outside linebacker Brian Burns, who has five sacks in his last seven games, will face off against Brady Christensen, filling in for the injured Ickey Ekwonu at left tackle.

The Panthers, also 2-7, rely heavily on running back Chuba Hubbard, who ranks fifth in the NFL in rushing yards with 665 and has five touchdowns. Hubbard had 72 rushing yards and two touchdowns in the Panthers’ win over the Saints. Receiver Xavier Legette is expected to see increased targets due to injuries and trades affecting the Panthers’ receiving corps.

The Giants are making adjustments to their offensive line, with Jermaine Eluemunor moving to left tackle to protect quarterback Daniel Jones‘s blind side. This move is intended to fortify the pass blocking, which has been a weakness since starting left tackle Andrew Thomas suffered a season-ending foot injury.

Predictions for the game suggest a low-scoring affair, given the Giants’ struggles on offense and the Panthers’ defensive performance. The Giants have the worst scoring offense in the NFL, averaging just 15.4 points per game, while the Panthers’ defense has shown some resilience, particularly against the run.

The game will be broadcast on the NFL Network and streamed on FuboTV, with kickoff set for 9:30 a.m. ET.
