The Chicago Bears (7-6) are riding a three-game winning streak — and a ton of confidence on offense — heading into an NFC North showdown against their arch rivals Green Bay Packers (10-3).
With the Bears very much “in the hunt” for a Wild Card berth, they essentially need to win out in their final three games, and that starts with getting a win against Green Bay.
The Bears will be facing a Packers team in firm control of their destiny as division leaders in the NFC North. They’ve won three of their last four games with their only loss coming to NFC powerhouse San Francisco.
The last time these two teams met, it was a close affair throughout, which ended in a 10-3 Packers victory. But these aren’t the same teams that faced each other 14 weeks ago.
Even though the Bears have been playing their best football of the season, Vegas still isn’t as confident in Chicago’s chances against rival Green Bay.
The Bears have opened as 4.5-point underdogs against the Packers, according to BetMGM.
Chicago will be looking for redemption following a season-opening loss to Green Bay, although they’ll have to travel to Lambeau Field to do just that. The Bears have won four of their last five games and will be looking to take down their rivals in enemy territory.
