81% of experts picking Vikings to beat Lions

The 2-5 Vikings host the 3-5 Lions in what should be a make-or-break game for either team trying to keep its playoff hopes alive.

The Vikings go into the game as the Vegas favorites. Along with that, 81% of NFL experts are picking the Vikings to win, per NFL Pickwatch.

This is the first matchup between the two teams this season. The Vikings are 76-39-2 all-time against the Lions and have won five-straight games.

To round out the NFC North, the Packers already destroyed the 49ers on Thursday night, while just 9% of experts predict the Bears will beat the Titans in Tennessee.

If the Vikings can win and move to 3-5, they will try to keep their playoff hopes in Week 10 against the Bears in Chicago.
