Green Bay Packers vs. Detroit Lions Betting Preview
The Detroit Lions, under head coach Dan Campbell have turned into one of the toughest teams to beat in the league. After beating the Chiefs in Kansas City to start the season, this Lions team has shown its toughness. The two losses this season came at home to the Seahawks and on the road at Baltimore.
The Lions are scoring 27.2 points per game, and allowing 22.9 per game. The Lions offense ranks fifth in both passing yards per game, and rushing yards per game. The running back by committee with David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs has been great, with the veteran Montgomery leading with 577 yards and 8 touchdowns.
The Lions have this game at home, and then go back out on the road for games at the New Orleans Saints, and then at the Chicago Bears. The Detroit Lions score results this season have been higher scoring than many Lions teams.
Green Bay’s Road to Recovery
For the Green Bay Packers, the time is now. The Packers still have an outside chance at the postseason in the NFC, but will need to go on a win streak. The Packers need to be better on the road, with just one win in five games. Green Bay’s lone road win was in Week 1 at the Chicago Bears.
The Packers are looking to avenge the NFL Week 4 loss to the Lions at home. In that game, the Packers gave up 34 points, which was a season-high. On the season, the Packers are scoring 20.2 points per game, and allowing 20.2. In the win on Sunday, Kenny Clark came up with a huge deflection to seal the deal.
The Packers have a home game against the Chiefs following this game, and then will go on the road to take on the New York Giants. Green Bay Packers games are interesting this season with a first-year quarterback that seems to be improving.
Green Bay Packers vs. Detroit Lions Betting Prediction
The Packers are going to be better prepared in this game, and compete. Green Bay knows it is now or never. The Packers have some winnable games on their schedule, with the Giants, Buccaneers and Panthers upcoming.
This is a big game. Look for the Packers to actually move the ball well with Jordan Love under center. He threw for over 300 yards last week, and his receivers continue to get better. The status of Aaron Jones is doubtful, but they will have to find a way with AJ Dillon and the pass game. Look for the Packers to be pretty pass-heavy.
In the end, in a shocker, we are going with the Green Bay Packers to win this game. Taking the Packers at +290 is our bet here! Hope you enjoyed our Packers vs Lions prediction!
