Bears vs Vikings Betting Prediction
Now, we have the Bears vs Vikings Betting prediction for both teams.
Bears vs Vikings Betting Prediction: Chicago
This is the Bears vs Vikings Betting prediction for Chicago.
The Chicago Bears enter this contest after a subpar performance in a 13-38 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. It was their seventh consecutive loss following a strong 4-2 start to the season. The team encountered difficulty in generating offense during the final contest, as quarterback Caleb Williams was unable to throw the ball for an extended period of time. Williams has struggled with his protection throughout the season, and the Bears have not had the opportunity to fully flourish, despite the abundance of playmakers on the offensive side of the ball.
The Bears’ defense is the fourth-best in the league in terms of turnover differential, which means they will be forced to pass the ball against a Vikings’ offense that is known for its high-flying style. The primary objective of this game is to force the Vikings to run the ball while keying Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, as they allowed 330 passing yards to Minnesota in their initial encounter. If they are able to limit them to a modest total through the air, they may be able to maintain the game’s closeness if they are able to force another shootout.

Bears vs Vikings Betting Prediction: Minnesota
This is the Bears vs Vikings Betting prediction for Minnesota.
For their sixth consecutive victory, the Minnesota Vikings most recently dismantled the Atlanta Falcons 42-21. This remaining schedule will be essential for their seeding in the Wild Card race, as they are on the brink of a playoff berth and the No. 2 seed in the NFC North. During their most recent encounter with the Bears, there were instances in which Sam Darnold was able to effortlessly advance the ball down the field. They are fully confident in their capacity to penetrate this Bears’ defense through the air, and we should anticipate a comparable performance with their receiving corps in good health and prepared to perform.
The Minnesota Vikings are presently ranked in the top 10 of the NFL in terms of passing yards (3,097); however, they are further down the list in terms of rushing yards (1,471). However, it has yielded 26.1 PPG, and they have been one of the more difficult offenses to contain this season. The Vikings should be able to secure another victory if they are able to manage the ball and advance down the field at home, despite the Bears’ propensity to turnover the ball.
