The 8-4 Philadelphia Eagles are visiting the 8-4 Los Angeles Chargers, setting the stage for the final showdown of Week 14. Both teams have a lot on the line, with Los Angeles hoping to keep the AFC West race in range while Philadelphia attempts to keep the 6-6-1 Dallas Cowboys at bay.
Of course, many fantasy football managers see the contest mostly as the final arena of their own Week 14 battle to make the playoffs or solidify their playoff spot. To help those in need (and perhaps cause a little chaos by helping those hoping to play spoiler), Sportskeeda has compiled a fantasy football guide to the contest, including a prediction. Take a look.

With high-stakes games often come low-scoring affairs, and that is what's likely on tap. Nerves will be as high as they've been all season, especially on the Los Angeles' side of things. However, with home-field advantage and Philadelphia forced to travel across the country, Philadelphia's fatigue should cancel out Los Angeles' nerves.
Of course, the biggest question is whether Justin Herbert will play in the contest, as he has been nursing a hand injury that he underwent surgery on in the lead-up to the game. Jim Harbaugh has been playing things close to the vest, based on statements made this week by the head coach via a Monday report by Chargers media. However, the team is acting as if he will play.
If he does, expect a thrilling matchup. If he doesn't, expect Philadelphia to win the game outright. Assuming Herbert plays, expect Los Angeles to win the contest 20-17. If he doesn't play or otherwise looks out of sorts, expect Los Angeles to lose 27-10.
Eagles vs. Chargers fantasy picks

Two Philadelphia players you shouldn't sleep on are A.J. Brown and Jalen Hurts. Hurts, armed with the tush push, is in line for plenty of rushing touchdown points. Even if his arm struggles, his legs will deliver. Brown has been the center of more than enough drama, but the receiver is coming off his second-straight 100-yard performance, and things are looking up.
On the other side, Omarion Hampton is set to return against Philadelphia for the first time since suffering an ankle injury on Oct. 5. As such, it's time to bench Kimani Vidal and embrace the rookie. Additionally, even if Justin Herbert doesn't play, expect plenty of looks for Keenan Allen, who has resurrected his career in Los Angeles this season.
Ladd McConkey is likely to be shadowed heavily, so Allen could see more opportunities, no matter if it's Trey Lance or Herbert on the field.
Where to watch Philadelphia Eagles vs. Los Angeles Chargers on cable

There will be plenty of ways to watch the Philadelphia Eagles face the Los Angeles, with the contest set to be broadcast on ESPN, ABC, and on the Disney Channel. ABC will be accessible by over-the-air antenna, while you will need cable to watch on ESPN and on the Disney Channel.
Keep in mind, the Disney Channel broadcast is done in a live animation style, so don't expect most of the trappings of a traditional broadcast.
