Our Minnesota Vikings vs Detroit Lions Prediction
Detroit is more than a touchdown favorite, and while they are clearly the better team, we will be targeting a player prop. More specifically, Jahmyr Gibbs from the Detroit Lions, to score an anytime touchdown.
Gibbs broke out in the Lions’ most recent game, racking up 218 yards from scrimmage. He also scored three times in this game, and now has seven total touchdowns this season.
Additionally, Gibbs has scored in five of the Lions’ seven games this season, while the Vikings have allowed five rushing touchdowns. Further, Minnesota has allowed about 23.1 points per game this season.
The Vikings have plenty of issues offensively as well, with their quarterback, Carson Wentz, recently placed on the Injured Reserve list. With the Vikings showing little offensively, this will give Gibbs and the Lions more chances to score. For that reason, our Detroit Lions vs Minnesota Vikings prediction is: Jahmyr Gibbs Anytime Touchdown.Claim $300+ for your Minnesota Vikings vs Detroit Lions wager!
