It’s hard tellin’ who will come out victorious late tonight after the Washington Redskins and the New York Giants do battle on Monday Night Football.

The Giants (7-4), of course, are the current leaders of the NFC East Division and are the reigning Super Bowl champions. The Redskins (5-6), meanwhile, are winners of two straight, and appear to have some momentum on their side.

The computers at AccuScore also appear to be indecisive about tonight’s game, as they have the Giants as just 51-percent favorites.

But if Robert Griffin III and Alfred Morris find success running the ball against the Giants — much like they did in their Week 7 matchup — then the Redskins are considered overwhelming favorites.

Here’s the highlights of today’s AccuScore predictions for Redskins-Giants, according to ESPN:

- Morris and Griffin III are each projected to rush for 60-plus yards on four yards per carry. If they reach those marks tonight, then the Redskins are 76-percent favorites.
- If the Giants hold the Redskins to less than 120 rushing yards, then New York is 77-percent favorites.
- If Giants quarterback Eli Manning completes 60 percent of his passes, then the Giants are 55-percent favorites.
- AccuScore lists the Giants as 51-percent (5,100) favorites out of 10,000 simulations.
