The Detroit Lions are set to face the Green Bay Packers at Ford Field, aiming for a season sweep against their NFC North rivals. A victory would extend their franchise-record winning streak to 11 games and improve their divisional record to 4-0 this season.
The Packers, led by Jordan Love, have rebounded with three consecutive wins since their earlier loss to Detroit. They’ve tightened their defense, allowing no more than 19 points in any game during this streak.
Despite a strong performance in their previous matchup, where they out-gained the Lions in rushing and passing yards, Green Bay's mistakes cost them the game. However, they have since improved their efficiency, particularly in the red zone, scoring touchdowns on 73.3% of their recent attempts.
With several key injuries affecting the Lions, including to linebackers Alex Anzalone and Malcolm Rodriguez, the Packers may exploit their fourth-ranked run game, led by Josh Jacobs. Currently, Detroit holds a 55% chance of winning at home in this crucial divisional clash.
