Lions vs. Packers tip, forecast & odds December 5th, 2024

Here we go again with an evergreen in the NFL and an extremely important one in the NFC North. The Detroit Lions are still leading with 11:1 wins, but the Packers are only two wins behind in our Lions vs. Packers tip.

However, Detroit is no longer as superior as it was a few weeks ago and against the Bears they barely escaped with a black eye. The Packers want to take advantage of that and it doesn’t seem impossible with their good offense.

Table of contents

Nevertheless, we see their defense as the key to success on Thursday. If they manage to keep the Lions to under 25 points, then at least a close game is possible. If they keep the game as a one-score game, then their chances increase as they have advantages over the Lions in the fourth quarter this season.

All in all, our prediction for Detroit vs. Green Bay is a closer duel than the first meeting at the beginning of November. We see Detroit with advantages at the front, but then the Packers in the last quarter.

Detroit Lions – Statistics & Current Form

It will be tighter for the Lions, because against the Bears the entire Bears coaching staff needed a mental breakdown in order to avoid having to go into overtime. However, the second half against Chicago in particular could provide slight cause for concern.

They even lost 7:20 against the previously catastrophic Bears. In general, the Lions are not necessarily the team that has the most power left in the fourth quarter. Of course, this is partly because they were already leading – but also because of their strenuous running game from the start.

Lions with problems in the 4th quarter

This weakness is also reflected statistically. The Lions have only won four of the fourth quarters this season – In contrast, there are eight who ended in a draw or who even lost. The last time against the Bears was 0:13.

As much as we trust Detroit to beat the Packers at home, this fact is exciting for a first tip option. For Lions against Packers, the odds on Green Bay in the 4th quarter are absolutely playable. Especially since the Packers have only lost one of their last seven fourth quarters.

Tips on Lions also possible

Win tips, on the other hand, are more likely to be played on Detroit. Since the handicap is currently only -3.5, we can still get started here. If the Lions win even more clearly, this will also benefit our 4th quarter tip.

Because then the Lions rely heavily on the running game there to milk the clock and they no longer go for points. This happened, among other things, against the Bears, Titans and in the last duel with the Packers, where the last quarter went to Green Bay 8-0.

Green Bay Packers – Statistics & Current Form

The Packers have won all three games since that last loss to the Lions. That makes them an unpleasant opponent for Detroit. They also averaged 34.0 points in their last two games.

That’s an average of 10.5 points more than the Lions over this period. Of course, this is only a small sample of the entire season, but it shows that Green Bay is not in bad shape. By the way, defensively, both teams didn’t take anything away from each other in the last two games (13.5 points conceded by Packers, 13.0 by Lions).

Which defense holds up better?

We know that both offenses can score. But which defense will leave its mark on Thursday’s game? The Lions are allowing 3.1 points and 5.2 yards less per game so far. When it comes to takeaways, however, the Packers are ahead with four ball wins.

They have already secured eleven interceptions and twelve fumbles, and the Lions have only won 19 balls. So the defenses are certainly comparable and a very good day from Green Bay’s defense could put them in the game.

Sub-points also an option

Until a few weeks ago, over points were generally the better option in Lions games. However, in their last five games, the 50-point mark has only been exceeded once. This only happened once in Packers games.

We therefore consider the estimated 51.5 total points to be a bit high. This means that for Detroit vs. Green Bay, a tip on under 51.5 points is a viable option, even if this is of course always associated with a slight risk for the Lions.

Key Players:

QB: Jordan Love
RB: Josh Jacobs
WR: Jayden Reed
TE: Tucker Kraft
K: Brandon McManus

Detroit Lions – Green Bay Packers Direct comparison / H2H balance

Four of the last five duels went to the Lions. However, the Packers won their last duel in Detroit in November of the previous year with 29:22. Jordan Love impressed with a passer rating of 125.5 points.

A Lions success here is not set in stone. Betting on the Packers is difficult, but we found an option that is more playable. Because the fourth quarter is a strength for Green Bay this season and, on the other hand, a weakness for the Lions.

So with Detroit vs. Green Bay, the odds on the Packers in quarter number 4 are an exciting alternative without having to commit to a winner. However, we can also imagine that the Packers win this quarter because the leading Lions simply run down the clock.

Statistics highlights for Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers

Betting base forecast & Detroit Lions – Green Bay Packers Tipp

It was already obvious against the Bears that the Lions are currently in a difficult phase. Everything no longer goes without resistance and the other teams have adjusted to their style of play. That should now also apply to the Packers.

So, for once, tips on the Lions are not our preferred option. This one is for Lions vs. Packers a tip to Green Bay in the fourth quarter. Detroit was only able to win this in four games this season – but not in eight.

Key-Facts – Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers Tipp

• Both teams are in the top 7 in turnover ratio
• The Lions average 31.9 points (NFL best)
• Both teams allow an average of 20 or fewer points

Alternatively, we have already brought sub-points into play, but we would also like to mention a player bet here. Amon-Ra St. Brown has already scored nine touchdowns this season and after two scoreless games it could be his turn again on Thursday.
