One of the marquee games in Week 13 is the New England Patriots hosting the Minnesota Vikings at Gillette Stadium in a matchup many picked for Super Bowl LIII in February.
The Patriots are 4-0 against teams above .500, and all three of their losses have come against sub-.500 opponents. The Vikings are 2-2-1 on the road, while the Patriots are 5-0 at home. New England also is 2-1 against the other three NFC North teams, with its wins coming against the division-leading Chicago Bears as well as the Green Bay Packers.
The Pats are 5-point favorites and many experts expect them not only to win, but also cover that spread.
