Minnesota is beginning to come unraveled having lost 3 of their last 4 after a solid start.  They are now at 5-4.  Detroit, on the other hand, has begun to look a little more sharp, winning 3 of their last 4 after a very slow start to the season.

Detroit has won three of the last four in this series although Minnesota beat them earlier in the season the last time these two teams met.  The “revenge” factor is very much in play here.

In games where the line is +3 to -3, Detroit has gone 9-2 Straight Up and 7-2 Against The Spread over the past three seasons.  Minnesota, on the other hand, has gone just 4-11 ATS when the spread has fallen within this same range. 

When playing division opponents over the last three seasons, Minnesota is just 2-11 Straight Up and 4-8 Against The Spread.

The Vikings are just 2-6-1 ATS in their last 9 home games.

Detroit is 13-6-2 ATS in their last 21 games following a Straight Up win.

Not all trends favor Detroit, however.  They are just 1-9 ATS as a road favorite of -3 or less since 1993!

The Lions are also 4-11 ATS in their last 15 vs. NFC.
