Minnesota had won two in a row with great defense before losing 27-24 at Cincinnati last week and that makes this game against the Lions almost a must win for the Vikings if they want to stay in the playoff race. The Vikings are 6-1-2 ATS their past nine games and 9-3 UNDER their past 12. Nick Mullens passed for 303 yards and two TDs against the Bengals and Ty Chandler ran for 132 yards and a touchdown. Detroit took advantage of Denver playing its third road game in three weeks and defeated the Broncos 42-17. These teams split the two meetings in 2022-23, but the Vikings have won eight of the past 10 meetings. Minnesota is 21-8 ATS as a home underdog and 5-1-2 ATS after allowing more than 350 total yards its previous game. Detroit is 1-4 ATS following a win and 4-1 UNDER after winning by more than 14 points its previous game. The Vikings are 10-2-3 ATS and after yielding fewer than 90 yards rushing their previous game and 5-0 UNDER following a loss. Minnesota has stayed UNDER five of its past six home games. Take the Vikings and the UNDER.
