Bears vs Vikings Predictions - Early Picks & Odds for Week 11

The visiting Bears can hang with the Vikings, who haven't looked strong. We like Chicago to cover, and perhaps even win outright, while a lot of points are scored in the process.

Bears vs Vikings predictions

Here are our early thoughts on the spread and total for this week’s game. We will have a full game preview (with a best bet and SGP) later in the week.

Early Bears vs Vikings spread pick: Bears +3

-118 at FanDuel

The Chicago Bears have found ways to win in recent weeks, with comeback victories over the Bengals and Giants. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Vikings came back down to Earth last week following an upset win in Detroit.

The Vikings only beat the Bears by three in Week 1, and that was also their margin of victory against the Lions to begin the month.

Chicago should keep it close again, and it wouldn’t surprise me if they win outright.

Early Bears vs Vikings total pick: Over 47.5

-120 at FanDuel

These teams combined for 51 points in their first meeting, and the Vikings have allowed at least 24 points in each of their last four games. The Bears were held to 16 points in Baltimore last month, but that was their only time they've been held to fewer than 24 points since Week 2.

The Vikings have gone Over in seven of nine games this season, and the Bears also trend that way, with five of nine games going Over. I’ll take those trends to continue in this rematch.
