Vikings at Packers picks and predictions

Prediction

Packers 27, Vikings 21

Moneyline

PASS.

The spread holds better value on the Packers (-150).

Against the spread

BET PACKERS -2.5 (-115).

Whether QB Jordan Love is able to return Sunday or not, the Packers hold the advantage. They have won and covered in back-to-back weeks while playing as an underdog with their defense leading the way. In what is sure to be a highly touted matchup between Jefferson and Alexander, expect the Packers defense, combined with the home field advantage, to be the difference maker.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 43.5 (-110).

Both the Packers and Vikings have demonstrated their offensive capabilities early in the season with the Vikings scoring 23 or more points in each game this season and the packers scoring 29 or more in 2 of their 3 games. While both teams also perform well defensively, expect points on both ends in this divisional rivalry. The Vikings are also getting WR Jordan Addison (ankle) back.

Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Minnesota Vikings (3-4) rekindle their divisional rivalry with the Green Bay Packers (2-4) when they meet at 1 p.m. ET Sunday at Lambeau Field in a game broadcast on FOX. Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Vikings vs. Packers odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Vikings were left for dead at 0-3, but have won 3 of their last 4 games and, if the playoffs started today, Minnesota would be the last Wild Card team in the NFC. The Vikings got themselves back in the playoff conversation Monday night with a 22-17 upset win over the San Francisco 49ers.

The Packers are on the other side of the coin. After starting 2-1, Green Bay has lost 3 straight – the most recent being a 19-17 loss to the Broncos. Key injuries on both sides of the ball have taken a toll on the NFL’s youngest team, and the Packers’ record reflects its lack of depth.

Vikings at Packers picks and predictions

Prediction

Vikings 20, Packers 16

Moneyline

PASS

This is insurance in the event of a tie (these two tied at Lambeau Field in 2018). The Vikings have played more 1-score games since the start of 2022 (18) than any team in the league.

1.5 points isn’t a lot to give away, and it’s cheaper to take the spread.

Against the spread

TAKE VIKINGS -1.5 (-110)

The Vikings are 3-3-1 against the spread and the Packers are 3-3 ATS, so there isn’t a clear indicator here.

When this line opened Monday, the Packers were favored despite losing to the struggling Broncos. That changed after the Vikings beat the 49ers and vaulted themselves back into playoff contention.

The Vikings have played their best defensively when facing young quarterbacks and defensive coordinator Brian Flores unleashing blitz pressure. Their 3 wins have all come against young QBs (Bryce Young, Justin Fields and Brock Purdy). Jordan Love will have to play extremely well not to be the next victim.

Over/Under

TAKE UNDER 42 (-110)

The Vikings haven’t scored more than 22 points in their last 4 games, which includes all 3 of their wins this season. The Packers have just 68 points in their last 4 games with weekly totals of 18, 20, 13 and 17.

Hitting Over 42 points is going to require both teams to approach or surpass 20 points. Given the status of both of these offenses, for this game not to stay Under will likely require at least 1 defensive or special teams touchdown.

Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Sunday’s Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Minnesota Vikings (7-8) have their playoff hopes hanging in the balance when they travel to meet the Green Bay Packers (12-3) for Sunday Night Football. Kickoff from Lambeau field is set for 8:20 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Vikings vs. Packers odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Vikings have not been above .500 all season, but have numerous tie-breaker advantages in their favor. However, the line jumped by six points when it was learned that QB Kirk Cousins had tested positive for COVID-19 Friday and won’t be available for Sunday’s game.

Minnesota is in a huge hole since it doesn’t have a quality backup and will turn to QB Sean Mannion with its season on the line.

The Vikings are one of only three teams to beat Green Bay this season despite the Packers going 12-2 since a humbling loss to New Orleans in Week 1.

Green Bay controls its own destiny to earn the No. 1 seed in the NFC and make any Super Bowl run go through Lambeau Field in late January — a huge advantage for the Packers since the only teams that can catch them are all warm-weather squads.

Vikings at Packers odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Packers 34, Vikings 10

Money line

Since the announcement that Cousins won’t be playing the money line has exploded. Nobody should ever make a bet when your investment is seven times the return and throwing money at Minnesota is simply wasting it.

AVOID.

Against the spread

The team with the best record in the league is going up against a team that prepared all week that it would have Cousins and now have to turn to Mannion, who was on the practice squad until Friday morning.

The spread is big at 12.5 points, but I’m convinced the Packers can double that number. TAKE the PACKERS -12.5 (-117).

Over/Under

The hardest part about this line is whether Minnesota can score enough points to hold up its end of the bargain. RB Dalvin Cook and WR Justin Jefferson will likely do enough to get the Vikings in scoring position a couple of times, but Green Bay is more than capable of scoring the 34 points we’re projecting. BET the OVER 42.5 points (-112)
