Why the Vikings can cover<\/h2>\n

The Vikings went 11-6-0 ATS in 2024, covering in four of their last five regular-season matchups. That included a 30-12 win at home against the Bears where Minnesota was the 7-point betting favorite. Minnesota was also a good road team last year, going 6-2-0 away from home including a 30-27 overtime win at Soldier Field in Week 12.<\/p>\n

J.J. McCarthy<\/a> will finally get his first regular-season start after his entire rookie campaign was delayed due to injury. He will be dealing with a depleted receiving corps in Week 1 — Justin Jefferson<\/a> isn’t 100% healthy and Jordan Addison<\/a> is suspended — which could force him to hand the ball off quite a bit to Aaron Jones<\/a> Sr. and Jordan Mason<\/a>. The Bears defense gave up the fifth-most rushing yards per game last season (136.3).\u00a0See which team to back at SportsLine<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Why the Bears can cover<\/h2>\n

New head coach Ben Johnson will make his highly-anticipated debut on Monday Night Football, and his presence has given fans hope Chicago can start the season off with an upset win. The Bears were 8-7-2 ATS last season, but did keep the Vikings from covering the spread in Week 12.<\/p>\n

Chicago beefed up its offensive line in the offseason, which should give Caleb Williams<\/a> more room to work at home in Week 1. The defense held the opposition to 217.9 receiving yards per game in 2024 and is expected to put a lot of pressure on McCarthy, especially since the young QB didn’t get much gametime in during the preseason.\u00a0See which team to back at SportsLine<\/a>, and new users can also check out the latest\u00a0bet365 bonus code<\/a><\/span> to\u00a0get $300 in bonus bets after placing a $5 bet<\/a>:<\/p>\n
