The Minnesota Vikings will beat the San Francisco 49s in Week 12. Here are three reasons the purple and gold will win on Sunday, Nov. 28.

Week 12 has arrived and the Minnesota Vikings are hoping to get their third consecutive win and get to a 6-5 record on the season. That won’t be an easy task, since the team hits the road to take on the San Francisco 49ers this week.

The 49ers are a 5-5 team who have only won one game at home this year. It is more than possible for the Vikings to win on the road, especially since Minnesota fans seem to travel well and take over opposing stadiums.

A win over the 49ers could move the Vikings to two games behind the Packers in the NFC North if Green Bay loses to the Rams this week. Considering the frustrating way the season began, it is impressive how this team clawed back into the playoff picture quite well.

But, before looking too far ahead to the NFC North divisional race and the playoffs, the Minnesota Vikings need to focus on Week 12 and the San Francisco 49ers. The Vikings should win this game, and here are three reasons Minnesota will come out ahead.
