1. Home Sweet Home

The Vikings aren’t dominant at home this year. They have managed to defeat the 49ers, Cardinals, and Lions at U.S. Bank Stadium, but failed to get a win against the Bills and Saints. Still, 3-2 is a winning record at home.

However, this advantage is less about the home field the Vikings have and more about Green Bay being on the road.

The Packers are a shocking 0-5 when away from Lambeau Field this year, losing to the Redskins, Lions, Rams, Patriots, and Seahawks with only the Vikings, Bears, and Jets left as their road opponents this year.

If the fans in attendance can be loud and rowdy, this will help Minnesota not only continue to have their advantage at U.S. Bank Stadium but it could keep Green Bay from getting their first win away from Wisconsin.
