Chicago Bears at Minnesota Vikings Predictions & Tips

Minnesota are tipped to cover as they win this Monday night matchup.

The Vikings offense is rolling and should have plenty of success against a Bears defense that continues to regress and seemingly quit in the blowout loss to San Francisco.

Chicago Bears Form

Chicago go into this Monday night matchup having now lost seven straight games to fall to 4-9.

The Bears opened the season with a come-from-behind win over Houston, only to lose their next two games on the road.

They rebounded with a 24-18 win over the Los Angeles Rams, and then blew out Carolina 36-10 at home before travelling to London for a 35-16 victory over Jacksonville.

The wheels have fallen off since then though, with Chicago’s 18-15 defeat in Washington sparking a collapse that cost Matt Eberflus his job.

The Bears were then embarrassed by Arizona and New England, and after three heart-breaking divisional losses they were then dominated in a 38-13 loss to San Francisco.

Minnesota Vikings Form

Minnesota enter this game on a great run of form, having won six consecutive games to take their record to 11-2.

The Vikings opened the season with five straight wins, before seeing their momentum stall with a 31-29 loss to Detroit and a 30-20 defeat at the Los Angeles Rams.

They rebounded with a 21-13 win over Indianapolis though, and that proved to be the start of this six-game tear they are currently on.

Minnesota went out on the road for three straight games and beat Jacksonville 12-7 and Tennessee 23-13, before fending off Chicago in a 30-27 overtime win.

The Vikings returned home for their next two games, and extended their streak with a 23-22 win over Arizona and a 42-21 victory against Atlanta.

Verdict

CHI Bears @ MIN Vikings

It was a case of different coach, same old Chicago Bears last weekend.

The Bears appeared to wave the white flag in San Francisco, and that spells trouble against an in-form Minnesota team who are looking to stay firmly on course for the playoffs.
