Betting on the Minnesota Vikings
What will happen on game day for the Minnesota Vikings? The Vikings have been really inconsistent in these first few weeksalternating between a resounding 23-7 win over the Packers and then a 24-7 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. They managed to recover from this beating in Week 3 by defeating the Detroit Lions 28-24 thanks to a touchdown scored on the last play of the game.
That matchup against the Lions saw Minnesota allow more than 400 total yards to its opponents for the second consecutive week, which sees it be the team with the third-highest total yards allowed heading into Week 4, with 427.7.This is an important aspect they’ll need to work on if they want to get good results without suffering too much.
Betting on the New Orleans Saints
For the time being, the New Orleans Saints have proved that their 27-26 Week 1 win over the Atlanta Falcons after an incredible comeback was indeed mere causality and a product of their opponent’s poor performance; since then, they have done nothing but lose. They lost 20-10 to the Buccaneers in Week 2 and 22-14 to the Panthers in Week 3,which is troubling given that they are both divisional rivals.
Both losses saw them rack up more total yards than their opponents, but their inefficiency on offense did not allow them to capitalize on these opportunities, with quarterback Jameis Winston throwing five interceptions in total between the two losses.
JefeBet Prediction
The fact that this match will be played in a neutral stadium means that, in theory, both teams are on an equal footing, as both will have to make the long trip to Europe for this match.
However, the Vikings may not be too pleased about playing away from home, as their only loss of the season has come playing on the road. Furthermore, their defense showed no signs of confidence against the Eagles or the Lions, so we’ll have to be skeptical of their favorite tag for this game.
The Saints may not have capitalized on their offensive opportunities; however, we can argue that they have been their own worst enemies thus far, and allowing opponents an average of only 183.7 yards through the air – the fifth-best average in the NFL – demonstrates how good this team’s defense is. Thus, it would be no surprise to see them return home with a positive result.
Prediction: New Orleans Saints Moneyline (MIN 16 – NO 22)
