Vikings vs Titans Preseason Betting Prediction
The Week 3 preseason clash between the Minnesota Vikings and Tennessee Titans presents an intriguing betting matchup with contrasting trends. From a betting perspective, the Vikings bring much stronger value, not only because of their ATS success but also because they’ve been far more efficient and balanced on both sides of the ball. Tennessee may find ways to slow down Minnesota’s passing game, but their weaknesses against the run and struggles covering spreads at home remain glaring issues. With the Vikings’ depth showing early in the preseason, the edge clearly goes to Minnesota, both straight up and against the spread. For bettors, the safest angles appear to be backing Minnesota ATS and considering the total, where recent history suggests the UNDER has been the more reliable outcome when the Vikings are involved.
