Bears vs Lions Prediction

The Bears’ defense is coming off a strong performance, giving up just 213 yards of offense and should build on this vs. the Lions. Despite entering as 10-point underdogs on the road, I like them to cover the spread.

For this matchup, I’m going to be hammering the under, as our model has the Bears and Lions combining for 42 points. Right now the over/under line is sitting at 46.5, so I’d recommend getting some action on the under.
