The Green Bay Packers will face the Minnesota Vikings on 11th September 2022 to kickstart their new NFL season. This is one of the biggest matches of the regular season for both these teams, as the fight to win the title of NFC North could go down till the final game of the season.

Due to it, both teams need to be at their best to start the season against their fierce division rival, and it is going to be a great game between two promising teams. The Packers will begin the new era without star WR Davante Adams, who was traded in the offseason.

On the other hand, the talented team of the Vikings will play their first game under a new head coach, and we can expect good things coming from quarterback Kirk Cousins in the upcoming season.

  • Allen Lazard – Green Bay Packers

This season is a huge one for Allen Lazard and his future with the franchise. He has the opportunity to become the WR1 of this Packers team following the exit of Davante Adams, and if he doesn’t perform well, then rookie WR Christian Watson is ready to take his place. We can expect a big outing for Lazard in this huge game against the Vikings.

Match Prediction & Telecast Details:

This is a very tough game to predict as both the teams are pretty good, and it will interesting to see how the Packers fare without Davante Adams. Despite that, it looks like Aaron Rodgers will continue his dominance in the regular season, and take the Packers to a big win to start the season against division rivals.

  • Green Bay Packers to win the game and will score over 23.5 points against the Minnesota Vikings.
