Carolina Panthers vs Atlanta Falcons Prediction: Falcons are expected to prove their worth

Bank of America Stadium will host the NFL encounter between Carolina Panthers and Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons are well-favored on the road. Can the Panthers, at home, pull off a shocking victory?

The Carolina Panthers are yet to find their rhythm this season and continue struggling. In five matches, the Carolina Panthers have only one win, a 22-39 road victory against the Las Vegas Raiders. However, other encounters ended in defeat to the New Orleans Saints, Los Angeles Chargers, Cincinnati Bengals, and Chicago Bears. This season, the Carolina Panthers have the weakest record, alongside the Los Angeles Rams, leaving them seated in the bottom spot of the National Football Conference Division with a 0.200 PCT. 

The Atlanta Falcons made it consecutive victories against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers the previous weekend and will look to keep things running. In that game, the Atlanta Falcons needed an overtime victory after being held to a 30-30 draw at the end of regular time, thanks to a touchdown pass by Hodge. However, the Atlanta Falcons have three wins in their first five matches this season, the first two being against the Philadelphia Eagles and New Orleans Saints. In the National Football Conference standings, the Atlanta Falcons sit 8th spot. 

The Carolina Panthers have not convinced me this season; week in and week out, this team keeps struggling. On the other side, the Atlanta Falcons have not been dominant in their matches this season, but they were brilliant against the Bucs the previous weekend. With the Carolina Panthers struggling so much defensively, I expect the Atlanta Falcons to penetrate this game and secure a huge margin win.
