*Ravens vs Eagles – Preseason Game Prediction*
*Sat Aug 15, 2026 – 4:00 PM PDT | M&T Bank Stadium, Baltimore* e0cc
This is a _preseason_ matchup, not a regular season game. But it’s still a big one – 2 Super Bowl contenders with Lamar Jackson vs Jalen Hurts.
*Betting Lines Right Now*
– *Spread*: Ravens -3
– *Moneyline*: Ravens -162, Eagles +136
– *Total*: O/U 50 13a3
Ravens are favored at home, but Eagles have been getting more moneyline bets.
*What the experts are saying*
Most recent pundit picks from last time these teams met in regular season:
*For Ravens:*
– *Ravens 27, Eagles 21* – “Lamar Jackson’s quest to solve Vic Fangio’s defense will determine the flow”
– *Ravens 24, Eagles 17* – “The Eagles haven’t faced a team of Baltimore’s caliber”
– *Ravens 30, Eagles 13* – Ravens D should harass the Eagles b99febf5
*For Eagles:*
– *Eagles 24, Ravens 21* – “Philadelphia is No. 1 in yards allowed per game”
– *Eagles 29, Ravens 23* – “I think the wrong team is favored here”
– *Eagles 27, Ravens 26* – “Philly’s defense should make the difference” b99f4502
*Key matchups to watch*
1. *Running backs*: Saquon Barkley vs Derrick Henry
Both teams are 7-0 when their RB goes over 100 yards. NFL’s #1 rushing offense vs #2
2. *QBs*: Lamar Jackson is 23-1 vs NFC. Hurts + AJ Brown are the most productive deep-ball duo
3. *Defense*: Eagles have the NFL’s top defense – least yards and points allowed. Ravens struggle vs pass – 31st in NFL but are #2 vs run 21ad56adaa8cd4d1
*My take*
This should be close. Both teams have elite run games + mobile QBs. 6a7d
– *Ravens edge*: Home field. They’re 97-38 at home under Harbaugh and rarely lose there.
– *Eagles edge*: More complete roster right now. #1 defense and 7-game win streak last time they met 6a7daa8c21ad
*Prediction: Ravens 24, Eagles 23*
But I wouldn’t be shocked by Eagles +3 covering. 6a7d
Preseason caveat: starters might only play 1-2 series. Keep an eye on depth QBs and rookies.
