The hosts are 4-4 and sit second in the NFC West, while Arizona have won three of their eight games and trail Seattle in the standings.

Head-to-head statistics Seattle Seahawks - Arizona Cardinals

Seattle Seahawks Team Overview
The Seattle Seahawks lost 34-17 to the Chicago Bears last time out. Starting quarterback Sam Darnold will miss the upcoming game with a thigh injury, forcing Seattle to reshape their offense. His likely replacement, Drew Lock, has also been dealing with an elbow issue, adding to the uncertainty. The Seahawksβ defense remains one of the leagueβs best, allowing just 276.3 yards per game. A strong performance from their defensive front could be the hostsβ biggest advantage.

Arizona Cardinals Team Overview
Arizona Cardinals head into the game after an emotional 33-30 overtime win over Dallas Cowboys. They rallied from a 17-3 deficit, showing resilience and an ability to turn the game around. Gardner Minshew played a key role after coming on, completing 17 of 23 passes for 188 yards and three touchdowns. Tyler Allgeier also made a major contribution, rushing for 147 yards. Their offence now face a far more organised Seattle Seahawks defence.

β Editorβs prediction
We expect a relatively low-scoring game, with both teams likely to adjust their approach to this matchup. The Seattle Seahawks have a strong defence that can limit opponentsβ progress and force them to punt. Without Darnold, the hosts may also play more cautiously and lean on their running game. The Arizona Cardinals have shown recently that they can put points on the board, but repeating that against one of the leagueβs best defences will be difficult. Our prediction: under 39.5 total points.
