Will the Minnesota Vikings keep ahold of the No. 2 seed in the NFC on Saturday by defeating the New York Giants inside U.S. Bank Stadium?
In their final game of the 2022 regular season inside U.S. Bank Stadium, the Minnesota Vikings will be wearing their white away jerseys on their home field for the first time in team history. The Vikings are calling Saturday’s festivities a “Winter Whiteout” and almost everyone inside the building will be hoping to see a victory over the visiting New York Giants.

Prediction:
Minnesota needed a gigantic comeback to get a win over the Indianapolis Colts last week. It probably won’t be as easy to eliminate a large deficit against a much more talented Giants team, so the Vikings will have to perform a lot better on Saturday than they did last weekend.
With that being said, Minnesota has been finding a different way to win almost every week this season, and we should expect them to leave their home field with a victory over a New York team that only has one win in their last five games.
Prediction: Vikings win
