Vikings and Lions Clash in NFC North Showdown

The undefeated Vikings face the surging Lions in a pivotal divisional matchup at U.S. Bank Stadium.

The Detroit Lions, with a 4-1 record, are coming off a dominating 47-9 victory over the Dallas Cowboys and aim to defend their NFC North title.
The Minnesota Vikings, currently the only undefeated team in the NFC at 5-0, lead the division and have a plus-63 scoring differential, the best in the NFL.
Detroit's offensive strength is highlighted by their high-scoring performances and balanced attack, led by quarterback Jared Goff and running backs David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs.
Key injuries for the Lions include the loss of defensive end Aidan Hutchinson to a broken leg, while the Vikings will be without tight end T.J. Hockenson due to knee injuries.
The Lions have won their last three meetings against the Vikings, but Minnesota's defense, led by OLB Jonathan Greenard, poses a significant challenge.
