Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford (#7).

Chip Kelly and the Philadelphia Eagles (1-2) will hope to follow up on their Week 3 win as they clash with division rival Washington Redskins (1-2) at the FedEx Field in Landover on Sunday, October 4.

The Eagles finally gained their first win of the season by beating the New York Jets, 24-17, last Sunday at the MetLife Stadium, via SB Nation.

Philadelphia's defense saved the day for a struggling Sam Bradford while backup running back Darren Sproles scored two touchdowns en route to the low-scoring victory.

Starting RB DeMarco Murray continues to be unavailable in this game versus the Redskins as he is still nursing an injured hamstring.

Meanwhile, the Redskins were dominated by the New York Giants, 32-21, in their Thursday night game also at the MetLife Stadium.

Odell Beckham Jr. caught an Eli Manning pass for a 30-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter to seal the victory for the Giants, as per Yahoo Sports.

As Washington's former starting quarterback Robert Griffin III is still sidelined, expect the Eagles' defense to take advantage of error-prone Kirk Cousins to snatch their second consecutive win.

Prediction: Eagles win, 35-24
