Packers open as 4.5-point road favorites over Bears in Week 6

For the second straight week and the third time in six weeks, the Green Bay Packers are betting favorites on the road.

According to Tipico Sportsbook, the Packers are 4.5-point favorites over the Chicago Bears in Week 6.

The Packers, now 4-1 after five weeks, were previously road favorites against the New Orleans Saints in Week 1 (loss) and Cincinnati Bengals in Week 5 (win).

The Bears have won two straight games (vs. Lions, at Raiders) after starting 1-2. This week is the first time Matt Nagy’s team will be a home underdog this season.

The Packers beat the Bears twice last season, including a 35-16 win at Soldier Field on Jan. 3. Green Bay is 2-0 in Chicago and 4-0 overall since hiring Matt LaFleur in 2019.

Overall, the Packers have won nine of the last 10 games in the rivalry. Since 2011, the Packers are 19-3 against the Bears.

Rookie quarterback Justin Fields will make his first career start against the Packers. Can he start a new chapter in this one-sided matchup, or will the Packers continue their dominance?
