The Green Bay Packers (12-3) will face the Minnesota Vikings (7-8) in the last regular-season game to be played at Lambeau Field during the 2021 season.
Temperatures at kickoff on Sunday night are expected to be well below freezing.
The Packers, already the champions of the NFC North, are inching closer to the top seed in the conference and can clinch the No. 1 spot without any help by securing wins against the Vikings and Detroit Lions over the final two games. The Vikings need a win to stay alive in the NFC playoff race.
Minnesota has beaten Green Bay in two straight games, including the first meeting this season at U.S. Bank Stadium (34-31). The Packers have won four straight games since that loss, while the Vikings are just 2-3.
At Lambeau Field, the Packers are a perfect 7-0 this season, including last Saturday’s win over the Cleveland Browns.
A win in primetime on Sunday night would ensure Green Bay’s third straight season with at least 13 wins.
