Ali Siddiqui’s Prediction For Vikings-Packers Ali Siddiqui | Published : Nov 13, 2026 Follow Us Facebook Twitter Reddit WhatsApp Email Copy Link Copy Link Link Copied The Minnesota Vikings (6-2) and Green Bay Packers (6-3) are facing off Sunday at Lambeau Field. Minnesota is coming off a very rough 23-6 loss at home to the Buffalo Bills on Monday night, making it their second straight loss. Green Bay won 45-27 on the road against the New England Patriots last week and has won five of their past six games. Predicting the Week 10 Vikings v. Packers Game Green Bay leads the all-time series 67-62-3 . These two teams faced each other in Week 1 at U.S. Bank Stadium. Minnesota won 39-22. Last time these two teams met in Green Bay came during Week 12 of last season. J.J. McCarthy went 12/19 for 87 yards, no touchdowns, and two interceptions. Jordan Mason rushed for 42 yards on eight carries. Justin Jefferson caught four passes for 48 yards. Tough day at the office for a lot of Vikings players. On defense, Blake Cashman recorded a game-high 16 tackles. For Green Bay, Jordan Love went 14/21 for 139 yards. Emanuel Wilson rushed for 107 yards and two touchdowns on 28 carries. Christian Watson caught five passes for 49 yards. On defense, Isaiah McDuffie recorded a team-high eight tackles and also recorded an interception and half a sack. Green Bay won 23-6 to improve to 7-3-1 on the season. They finished the season at 9-7-1 and fell to the Chicago Bears on the road in the first round of the playoffs. The Vikings fell to 4-7 and finished the season at 9-8. It was the fourth time the Vikings missed the playoffs in six years. “We did not play in any way, shape or form the type of (second) half that would give us a chance to compete,” Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell said . The big news this week for the Vikings has been the return of quarterback Kirk Cousins . After spending six seasons in Minnesota from 2018-2023, he is back after a trade with the Las Vegas Raiders for a third-round pick. With Kyler Murray out with a hamstring injury and Carson Wentz having a dreadful game, Minnesota knew they needed to do something and they sure did. Even when Murray was healthy he did not impress. In nine games, Cousins has thrown 20 touchdowns (second best in the league) and eight interceptions. Is it realistic for him to keep playing at this pace at age 38? Maybe not, but if he even comes close it will be very big for the Vikings and would give them a fighting chance to get to the Super Bowl. Not only is Cousins without a doubt an upgrade over Murray and Wentz, but given his familiarity with Kevin O’Connell’s system and previously playing with Justin Jefferson, J0rdan Addison and T.J. Hockenson, it should not take him long to mesh well with the team. He may not look that good this game or the next, but after that he could very well go back to being close to the same Cousins we saw in Minnesota previously and even earlier this season with Las Vegas. The Vikings’ defense has been great all season long, but has had to spend too much time on the field at times due to the offense not moving the ball much. Bringing Cousins back will certainly help keep the defense more rested and give opponents longer fields to deal with. Minnesota does not need to win this game to keep their season alive, but winning this Sunday will certainly get them back on the right track and improve their chances of winning the NFC North as well as fighting for the top seed in the conference. Next week they travel to Mexico City to face the San Francisco 49ers, who are considered by many as the favorites currently to make it to the Super Bowl. This is another tough game for Minnesota, but they still have a good chance to win. Cashman will likely be out (concussion), but this defense should do well enough to win along with the improved offense now with their new and old signal caller under center. Green Bay is playing very well as of late, but Minnesota is still a good team and losing three straight with an even tougher game next week does not sound too likely.
