Minnesota Vikings at Seattle Seahawks Preview & Picks

Minnesota are backed to cover as they win on the road in Seattle.

The Vikings offense continues to roll and this defense can be a huge headache for a Seattle team that could be without starting quarterback Geno Smith.

  • Minnesota Vikings are 12-2 this season
  • Minnesota Vikings are 9-4-1 ATS this season
  • The Under has hit in 9 of Minnesota’s 15 games
  • The Under has cashed in 6 of Seattle’s last 8 games

Head To Head

  • Seattle Seahawks lead the all-time series 13-6
  • Minnesota Vikings won 30-17 when the two teams last met in September 2021

Minnesota Vikings Form

Minnesota head out on the road riding a seven-game win streak that has propelled them to a 12-2 record.

The Vikings opened the season with five consecutive wins, before seeing their momentum stall briefly in late October.

They lost a big division game at home to Detroit, 31-29, before heading to Los Angeles for a 30-20 defeat to the Rams.

Minnesota rebounded at home though, beating Indianapolis 21-13, and backed that up on the road by beating Jacksonville 12-7, Tennessee 23-13 and Chicago 30-27.

The Vikings then reeled off three consecutive victories at home, beating Arizona 23-22, Atlanta 42-21 and Chicago 30-12.

Seattle Seahawks Form

Seattle go into this matchup looking to bounce back from a home defeat to Green Bay that ended a four-game win streak.

The Seahawks opened the season with three straight wins, only for their form to collapse between late September and early November as they lost five times in six games.

They snapped that skid with an important 20-17 win at division rivals San Francisco, and backed that up a week later by beating another NFC West opponent, Arizona, 16-6.

Seattle’s streak then continued on the road as they beat the New York Jets 26-21 and Arizona 30-18.

The Seahawks failed to make it five wins in a row though, as they were beaten 30-13 by the Packers last time out.

Verdict

Minnesota are one of the hottest teams in football, playing well in all phases.

Seattle, on the other hand, have dropped a bunch of games at home and may be without their starting quarterback here, so we like the Vikings in this one.
