Picks & predictions
Moneyline: Traders favor Detroit at 62.5%, while Minnesota is 37.5% despite its 6-0 record. Detroit is 3-0 at home; Minnesota is 3-0 on the road, making the home favorite’s assignment tougher than the records alone might suggest.
Against the Spread: At the selected Detroit -3.5 line, Kalshi gives the Lions 47.5% and Minnesota +3.5 52.5%. Detroit is 1-4-1 ATS overall, 1-3-1 as a favorite and 0-2-1 at home. Minnesota is 4-2 ATS, 2-0 as an underdog and 3-0 on the road. Pushes are retained in Detroit’s records. Detroit must win by at least four points to cover -3.5.
Over/Under: The selected 46.5-point total leans slightly under at 51.5%. Minnesota games are 5-1 to the under, with all three road games going under. Detroit games are 5-1 to the over, although last week’s 20-17 result stayed under. The season trends pull in opposite directions rather than producing a shared signal.
Form: Both teams won their latest game. Minnesota beat Indianapolis 16-10 with Kyler Murray passing for 150 yards and a touchdown without an interception. Detroit beat Green Bay 20-17 behind Jared Goff’s 303 passing yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions. The Vikings remain unbeaten, while Detroit has won all three home games.
