Jets vs. Vikings in London: Preview and Free Pick

This year, we return to London for the second game of the NFL International Series season, played by the Minnesota Vikings and the New York Jets.

The Vikings travel to Europe with a perfect record of four wins, in addition to three other wins in preseason.

The Jets have two wins and two losses and recently lost a game in which they did not score a touchdown.

This will be the 40th NFL game to be held in London and the ninth to be played at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. In addition, 42 games have already been played in Europe and 47 outside the United States. This year, the Eagles and Packers played in São Paulo, Brazil.

Why Bet on the Minnesota Vikings?

The Minnesota Vikings have surprised in this early season, being the best team in the entire NFL. Along with the Kansas City Chiefs, they are the only undefeated club with a 4-0 record after beating the New York Giants (6-28), the San Francisco 59ers (23-17), the Houston Texans (34-7) and the Green Bay Packers (29-31).

Considering they had a 7-10 record last season, failed to advance to the postseason, and lost their last four games and six of their last seven, this devastating start is surprising. In addition, they won all three of their preseason games.

Their 59 points against make them the third-best defense, while their 116 points scored is the fifth-best mark in the NFL. However, they allowed 22 points in the last quarter, something they must improve.

Sam Darnold is the quarterback with the most touchdown passes this season (11), while Justin Jefferson has a touchdown per reception in each of the games.

Why Bet on the New York Jets?

The New York Jets have not shown consistency this season. They beat the Tennessee Titans (17-24) and New England Patriots (24-3) and lost to the San Francisco 49ers (32-19) and Denver Broncos (9-10) last weekend in a must-win game.

In their last match against the Broncos, they couldn’t even score a touchdown, and suddenly, that motivated the controversy between coach Robert Saleh and quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who made statements different from what is expected from this team for the future.

Even though they did not score a touchdown in the previous game, one of the biggest deficiencies is in the defensive zone, where they have only been able to throw one interception. Itwas made by a player who is a substitute and only played that game against the Titans due to a teammate’s injury: cornerback Brandin Echols.

Final Betting Analysis: Vikings vs. Jets

The last time these two teams met was on December 4, 2022, and the Vikings won 27-22. In addition, both teams have already played games in the NFL International Series, all in London, and Minnesota has a 3-0 record while New York is 1-1.

Both have already played at Tottenham Stadium: the Vikings beat the Saints in 2022, while the Jets lost to the Falcons in 2021.

The numbers at Gambyl Exchange have the Vikings as favorites. Their Moneyline shows 1.71, while the Jets have 2.20.

The Vikings have shown a great level and are getting the results, contrary to the Jets who have not been consistent and must improve a lot on defense. So, we believe that Minnesota will take the victory at the UNDER.

Go for a win for the Vikings. If you bet $100 at 1.71, you will gain $71 for a total payout of $151.
