Two teams in the hunt for the NFC’s top spot will face off under the lights in tonight’s Sunday Night Football matchup.

The Philadelphia Eagles currently lead the NFC East and the NFC as a whole thanks to a 7-3 record. Last week, the Eagles were in action during Monday Night Football, where they beat the Packers in a low-scoring 10-7 affair.

Tonight, they can extend their three-game winning streak further against the Detroit Lions.

The Lions, at 6-3, are at the top of the NFC North, and they’re entering tonight’s game following a huge 44-22 victory over Washington last week.
