Key storylines
The Vikings (6-2) visit the Packers (6-3) in Week 10. The Vikings won the first meeting 39-22, so the Packers are the ones looking to even things up. It is an NFC North game, which makes it worth a little extra in the tiebreakers.
Form check: the Vikings are on a 2-game losing streak and sit 3rd in the NFC North, 0.5 games behind the Bears. The Packers are on a 2-game winning streak and are 4th in the NFC North.
Minnesota traded a 2027 third-round pick to the Raiders on Nov 10 for quarterback Kirk Cousins, two days after Carson Wentz started in place of Kyler Murray.

Who's favored
Both ESPN's predictor and the line lean Packers.
We don't make our own pick. These are ESPN's and the sportsbook's published numbers.
What is the win chance?
ESPN's matchup predictor, built on its Football Power Index. It simulates the game many times, and the percentage is how often each team wins. It is ESPN's number, not ours.
How do I read the line?
The point spread from a sportsbook. "GB -3" means the Packers are expected to win by about 3 points. The total (over/under) is the expected combined score of both teams.
