Vikings Favorites At Green Bay

The Vikings favorites in Green Bay would have been a surprise in the early part of the season, but where things stand now it is not.

Minnesota are 8-point favorites against Green Bay. This rivalry is traditionally a must watch for football fans, but given Aaron Rodgers will not be taking the field for the Packers and both teams sit low in the standings, and you can see why this game has lost some of its shine.

Green Bay is out of contention for the playoffs. The Viking will be looking for a first round bye at best in this game. With that said, they could also secure home field in the first rounds of the playoffs and with the Super Bowl being played in Minnesota, the entire post season could be played on home turf.

When looked at from that perspective, the Viking have a lot of reasons to cover and 8-point spread against the Pacers.

The total for the game is set at 40.5 points. Seven of the last ten game these two they have played in Lambeau have cashed OVER tickets. The Vikings have had four of their last five outings hit the OVER and are also on a 4-1 OVER/UNDER run on road trips.

Green Bay is also favoring the OVER in the latter part of the season. They have hit the OVER in six of their last seven games, including a 3-0 OVER run when playing at home.
