    Prediction:

    Minnesota was almost unbeatable on their home field during the regular season (8-1 record) and Sunday’s playoff game will take place inside U.S. Bank Stadium in front of a deafening crowd.

    The Giants will have some confidence this weekend after they only lost by three points to Minnesota less than a month ago. But the Vikings had control for most of that matchup, and we should expect them to come out on top in Sunday’s rematch as well.

    Prediction: Vikings win
