The Arizona Cardinals are set to face the Seattle Seahawks this Sunday at Lumen Field. The game, scheduled for 2:25 p.m., sees the Cardinals as slight favorites with a one-point advantage according to BetMGM's online sportsbook.

Arizona's defense has been formidable recently, particularly in preventing touchdown passes. Over the past month, they have not allowed any TD passes against top receivers like Tyreek Hill and Davante Adams. This weekend, they will face another challenge from Seattle's strong receiving lineup, including DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.

Paul Calvisi noted that the Cardinals' secondary will be tested by Seattle's second-ranked passing offense. "Simply put, can the young Arizona secondary make this weekend one of the worst times to fly for Seattle's No. 2-ranked passing offense?" he asked.

Both teams have shown resilience in close games this season. Zach Gershman highlighted that both teams have orchestrated several game-winning drives recently. He stated, "The Cardinals defense must emphasize playing a full 60-minute game."

After a bye week that interrupted their four-game winning streak, the Cardinals are looking to bounce back strong. Dani Sureck mentioned that rest could be beneficial if utilized properly. "Rest always comes at a good time for players," she said.

As divisional rivals in a tight NFC West race, Sunday's matchup holds significant playoff implications for both teams.
