The Detroit Lions will travel to Green Bay to face the Packers in a game for first place in the NFC North. The Lions are coming off a dominant win against the Titans where special teams led the Lions to scoring 52 points. The Packers are coming off a win on a game-winning field goal for the second game in a row. The Packers will have Jordan Love this weekend, so they should have a real shot to beat the Detroit Lions if they can stop their offense and pick apart their secondary. This game is expected to be close, and here are 3 bets that I believe have the best chance to hit on Sunday afternoon.
Detroit Lions vs Green Bay Packers
- Fixture: Lambeau Field
- Date: November 3rd
- Time: 4:25
Amon-Ra St. Brown: Over 67.5 Receiving Yards (-113)
St. Brown had a quiet game last week, getting just 2 catches for 7 yards, but I expect him to bounce back this week. The Packers will likely be without cornerback Jaire Alexander, so the Lions will have an easier time throwing the ball. Safety Xavier McKinney has been great for Green Bay this year, leading the league in interceptions, so expect Jared Goff and the Lions to look for short passes and find St. Brown early and often in this game. The current line is 67.5 yards, and despite performing how he did last week, I think he should be able to hit that number easily.
Jordan Love: Over 221.5 Passing Yards (-113)
Jordan Love has been great this year, and the Detroit Lions have recently struggled to rush the passer and in the secondary. Love should have plenty of time to throw, allowing him to find open receivers and make great reads. The Lions secondary has also struggled, giving up 143 yards to Calvin Ridley last week. The weather could affect how much they throw, but I think they still pass a good amount regardless. The current line is 221.5 yards, which he has hit in 4 out of 6 games this year, and I expect him to clear this with ease.
David Montgomery: Over 55.5 Rushing Yards (-113)
David Montgomery has struggled the past few games, but I expect him to bounce back against a struggling Packers run defense. Montgomery has averaged less than 4 yards per carry and under 50 yards in the last two games, allowing Jahmyr Gibbs to go off. I expect the Detroit Lions to lean more on Montgomery this weekend, allowing him to plow through the Packers defensive line and gain plenty of yards. Last year in Green Bay, Montgomery went for over 120 yards and 3 touchdowns, and we could see the Lions use him as much as that again. The current line is 55.5, which despite falling to hit recently, he should be able to hit this weekend with ease.
