THE PREDICTION
The Packers and Lions clash at Lambeau in what promises to be a hard-fought divisional matchup and it will be highly entertaining if last year’s games are anything to go by. The Packers won both games by scorelines of 23-20 and 23-22 so there was very little to split the two teams. The Packers and quarterback Aaron Rodgers were in sparkling form last week racking up 43 points in a win over the Vikings and they will hope for more of the same here. The Lions contrived to lose to the Bears after leading 23-6 going into the final quarter, so they will be wounded ahead of this one. They will surely raise their game significantly here and will push the Packers all the way so +6 handicap is tempting. That said, the Packers were sensational last week and with Matt Stafford likely to raise his game, expect over 49 points here.
