So far in 2021, "Monday Night Football" has treated viewers to one of the best games of the season (Raiders vs. Ravens) and an 18-point Packers win over the Lions in a divisional clash.

In Week 3, the program is hoping to get something closer to the Week 1 game while adding the flair of a divisional battle.

"Monday Night Football" will be heading to AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas to watch the Cowboys try to move into first place in the NFC East. They'll have a chance to win their second game of the season at the stadium affectionately known as "Jerry World" but they'll have to get past a tough, divisional rival to move above .500 for the first time this season.

Here is everything to know about ESPN's "Monday Night Football" game for Week 3, including the kickoff time and more.

Who plays on 'Monday Night Football' tonight?

  • Matchup: Eagles at Cowboys
  • Location: AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas

The Cowboys are playing host to the Eagles in "Monday Night Football's" Week 3 matchup. Both teams sit at 1-1 and the winner will be in first place in the NFC East.

Dallas and Philadelphia have met 10 times in the last five seasons, and the Cowboys have a 6-4 advantage in the series. However, they have gone 2-2 in their last four. In their two losses, they managed just nine points each time; in each of their wins, they managed exactly 37 points.

Dak Prescott and Co. will look to heat up against an Eagles defense that has allowed just 11.5 points per game through two outings, tied for the second-best mark in the NFL. Jalen Hurts should have success running against Dallas' defense, as he ran for 69 yards against them in a start last season which throwing for 342. Hurts has averaged 72 rush yards per game so far this season.
