Football Preview: Willingboro Chimeras vs. Eastside Tigers

Suggested Video

Willingboro is on a four-game streak of home wins (dating back to last season), while Eastside is on a three-game streak of away wins (also dating back to last season): one of those streaks is about to end. The Willingboro Chimeras will host the Eastside Tigers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Eastside took a loss in their last contest and will be looking to turn the tables on Willingboro, who comes in off a win.

Willingboro's defense heads into the matchup hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Saturday. They simply couldn't be stopped as they easily beat Salem 35-0 on the road. Given the Chimeras' advantage in MaxPreps' New Jersey football rankings (they are ranked 20th, while the Rams are ranked 201st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Meanwhile, Eastside unfortunately witnessed the end of their four-game winning streak dating back to last season on Saturday. The game between them and Cedar Creek wasn't particularly close, with Eastside falling 20-6.

Willingboro didn't have too much breathing room in their match against Eastside in their previous meeting back in September of 2023, but they still walked away with a 24-20 win. Will Willingboro repeat their success, or does Eastside have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
