All eyes will be on the Los Angeles Rams when they play host to the New York Giants on Monday Night Football.The Rams return home to SoFi Stadium after an 11‑day break, most of which will have been spent stewing over their bruising 27‑7 Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Melbourne.But they are boosted by the news that three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year Aaron Donald is set to return to the field for the first time since the 2023 season.The Giants make the cross-country trek on the back of upsetting the Dallas Cowboys 28-20 at MetLife Stadium, although they are dealing with injuries that will make life tough in tinseltown.GET UP TO £30 IN FREE BETS ON THE NFL WITH TALKSPORT BET* Los Angeles Rams vs New York Giants tipsRams -6.5 on Spread @ 17/20Kyren Williams Over 0.5 First Half Rushing Touchdowns @17/10Matthew Stafford Over 247.5 Passing Yards – Match @17/20Rams to bounce back from defeat Down Under The Rams’ performance was flat in Australia as their unrealistic travel schedule left them looking jet-lagged and jaded.However, they should be raring to go for this home opener and lifted by Donald at the heart of their defensive line.His presence alone shifts protection schemes, compresses pockets, and forces quarterbacks into quicker decisions. That’s potentially very significant against a Giants offensive line dealing with injuries.New York shone in Week 1 behind Jaxson Dart’s 23 completed passes for 230 yards and three touchdowns, while Cam Skattebo ran for 81 yards.But sustaining that level on the road against a rested, angry Rams team is a different story.Los Angeles may be without Myles Garrett and possibly Puka Nacua (hip), but Matthew Stafford and Davante Adams still give them a far superior offensive ceiling.The Rams were first in points and passing yards last season, scoring 518 total points and throwing 46 touchdowns.If Stafford settles early, Los Angeles should cover.Kyren can come up clutch againThe Giants allowed both a rushing and receiving touchdown to Cowboys RB Javonte Williams in Week 1, and their front seven struggled to contain Dallas’ interior run game.They come up against another Williams with wheels this week as Rams rusher Kyren attempts to extend his four-game touchdown scoring streak.Ten of his 13 regular-season and four postseason scores last year came in the first half, and with Los Angeles expected to operate a balanced attack in the early stages, he looks set to be a strong candidate to carry the load in red-zone situations. If Puka Nacua is unable to shake off a hip issue, Williams becomes an even stronger candidate to score first and looks greater value to get a first-half TD.Stafford to sail past pass yardage spreadMatthew Stafford has thrown for at least 249 yards in 153 of 253 career games with his career average currently sitting at 271.2 yards per game (including playoffs).He struggled to get much going in Week 1 but all the signs point to him bouncing back strongly against a Giants secondary without one starting cornerback and with his replacement questionable to play this week.GET UP TO £30 IN FREE BETS ON THE NFL WITH TALKSPORT BET*All odds correct at time of writingRemember to gamble responsiblyA responsible gambler is someone who:Establishes time and monetary limits before playingOnly gambles with money they can afford to loseNever chase their lossesDoesn’t gamble if they’re upset, angry or depressedGamcare – www.gamcare.org.ukGambleAware – www.gambleaware.orgFind our detailed guide on responsible gambling practices here.For help with a gambling problem, call the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 or go to www.gamstop.co.uk to be excluded from all UK-regulated gambling websites.
