Minnesota Vikings Form

Minnesota go into this short week on the back of their first defeat of the season, which dropped them to 5-1.

The Vikings were one of the surprise stories of the NFL through the first few weeks, as they knocked off a couple of contenders in a five-game win streak.

They opened with a 28-6 win at the New York Giants, and then upset San Francisco in their home opener, delighting the US Bank Stadium crowd with a 23-17 victory.

Minnesota then knocked off Houston a week later, 34-7, before recording a big 31-29 win when they visited division rivals Green Bay.

The Vikings made it five-in-a-row with a 23-17 victory over the New York Jets in London, but their perfect start finally came to an end last Sunday as they lost 31-29 at home to Detroit.

Los Angeles Rams Form

Los Angeles go into this matchup looking to kick-start their season after a much-needed win last weekend improved their record to 2-4.

The Rams opened the season with back-to-back road games and were beaten 26-20 in overtime by Detroit and 41-10 in regulation by Arizona.

They finally got off the mark in Week 3 as they upset San Francisco in their opening home game, 27-24, but their joy was short-lived.

Los Angeles went back out on the road a week later to lose 24-18 to Chicago, before returning home for a 24-19 loss to Green Bay.

The Rams did avoid a three-game losing skid however, as they ran out 20-15 winners against Las Vegas on Sunday.

Verdict

Minnesota lost a big game on Sunday and now they face a West Coast trip on a short week.

Brian Flores will have his defense ready for the Rams though, so we are backing the Vikings to get back on track.
