Online football betting takes center stage on Sunday night as the Minnesota Vikings host the Chicago Bears in a nationally televised game on NBC. This is a key game in the NFC North as both teams are fighting to make the playoffs. Gamblers making an NFL bet have some excellent options for this game.
Online betting numbers show that the Bears have won six of the last ten meetings against the Vikings. Chicago is 6-3-1 against the online betting number in those games. Earlier this season in Chicago the Bears won a high scoring shootout, 48-41 against the Vikings according to online betting results. At Minnesota, the Vikings have won three of the last four games against Chicago but they are only 1-3 against the online football betting pointspread in those games.
Making a choice on which team to take with your NFL bet in this game is tough. The Vikings are usually solid at home but the Bears have shown the ability to win anywhere in online betting.
