A great NFC North division game on tap between the Detroits Lions (4-1) and undefeated Minnesota Lions.

Detroit has won four of the last five games in this series.

The line on this game has moved from Minnesota -1 to -2.5 and back down to -1.  Sagarin suggests the wrong team is favored. 

“What a test we’re going to have this week,” Lions coach Dan Campbell said. “These guys are playing really good football.”

Lions Player to Watch

DT Alim McNeill. With DE Aidan Hutchinson likely out for the rest of the season with a broken leg, the Lions could use more games from McNeill like his against the Cowboys when he matched a career best with two sacks. The fourth-year pro landed a $97 million, four-year contract extension this week.

Vikings Player to Watch

OLB Jonathan Greenard. One of the most meaningful additions to the lineup from a remarkably productive haul of free agents this year, Greenard’s total of four sacks in five games doesn’t tell the full story of his impact with the pressure he’s been able to generate. The Lions are thriving behind one of the best offensive lines in the league, so Greenard and fellow edge rushers Andrew Van Ginkel, Patrick Jones II and Dallas Turner will have a challenge getting to QB Jared Goff.
