The New York Giants will be hosting for the New England Patriots in Week 10 in a big test for the NFC East-leading Giants.

Coming into Week 10, memories of recent Super Bowl wins by the Giants against the Patriots have been brought up. While the teams are very different, there are a few key pieces that are the same from those two Super Bowls.

The great combination of Bill Belichick and Tom Brady are still together, and the Giants still have their coach/quarterback combination of Tom Coughlin and Eli Manning.

New England presents the Giants with their toughest test of the season, as they are undefeated with arguably the best offense in the NFL. The Patriots are first in the NFL in points per game, as they average a ridiculous 34.3 PPG.

The Giants could certainly use a statement win in 2015 as in the weak NFC East, the Giants really haven’t had an opportunity to prove much. A win or even a close game against the Patriots would instantly give the Giants credibility in the NFC.

New England is more than a touchdown favorites against the Giants, but that hasn’t stopped the Giants from beating them before. Magic tends to happen when Manning faces the Patriots, and the Giants could use that magic again.

Here are five bold predictions for the game between the Giants and the Patriots in MetLife Stadium.
