Free NFL Picks and Predictions on this Christmas Day game between the Minnesota Vikings vs New Orleans Saints. This matchup is set to kickoff on December 25, 2020 at 4:30pm et at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana.

The NFL odds currently have the Saints listed as -7 point favorites and the over/under at 50.5 total points.
The betting public has 68% of their money behind the Saints as the home favorite.

The Minnesota Vikings come into this game 6-8 overall and can keep their small chance of making the playoff alive if they can pull off a win here, but a loss would eliminate them from playoff contention. They dropped their last two games against the Bucs, then last Sunday 33-27 against the Chicago Bears. In that game Dalvin Cook continues to be a monster in the back field. He had 24 carries for 132 total yards and a touchdown, but seemed to get a bit banged up at that end of the game. He should be good to go in this game, but it’s something to pay attention to. The Vikings need to get their defense on track if they want any shot in winning this game. To give up 33 points to the Bears in your house, that’s just embarrassing. New Orleans is ranked ninth in the league, putting up an average of 28.4 points per game, so Minnesota’s defense will need to step up and the offense led by Quarterback Kirk Cousins will also need to have a huge game. The Vikings are fifth in the NFL putting up 387 total yards per game.

Minnesota is 0-5 against the spread in their last 5 games and the total has gone over in 6 of the Vikings last 9 games this season.

The New Orleans Saints come into this game 10-4 overall this season. They’ll clinch the NFC South with a win here. They got Drew Brees back last Sunday, but ended up losing 32-29 against the Kansas City Chiefs. Drew Brees didn’t play impressive at all, he went 15 of 34 for 234 total yards for 3 touchdowns and an interception, but that completion rate makes sense sine he’s without his main target, pro bowl receiver, Michael Thomas, who should be back come playoff time. Expect Brees to have a much better game through the air going up against this Vikings defense who are just 24th against the pass. The Saints defense has been red hot this season, now ranked sixth in the league, only giving up an average of 21.2 points per game.

New Orleans is 1-6 against the spread in their last 7 games when playing at home against Minnesota and the total has gone under in 4 of the Saints last 5 games against an opponent in the NFC.

Our numbers show the best opportunity to make money on this Christmas Day NFL Game between the Minnesota Vikings vs New Orleans Saints is to lay that juice and roll with the Vikings First Quarter Over -0.5 Points at the -150 price.
