Betting Trends Minnesota Vikings vs N.Y. Giants

Updated:Dec 21, 2025 1:21 AM EST

The upcoming NFL Week 16 matchup on December 21, 2025, features the Minnesota Vikings taking on the N.Y. Giants Giants at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ. This Sunday football game promises exciting betting trends and valuable game insights for bettors looking to capitalize on the action.

The Minnesota Vikings come into this game with a strong offensive showing, averaging 20.64 points per game and 279.36 total yards, while their defense allows 21.93 points and 307.93 total yards on average. Quarterback J.J. McCarthy leads the Vikings, with key offensive weapons like Justin Jefferson and Aaron Jones Sr. supporting him. Despite some questionable injury statuses on the offensive line, the Vikings' passing offense (177.07 yards/game) will challenge the Giants' pass defense, which allows 228.93 passing yards per game.

The N.Y. Giants Giants, with quarterback Russell Wilson under center, have struggled this season with a 2-12 record. Their offense scores 21.43 points per game, gaining 343.21 total yards, but their defense has been porous, giving up 28.29 points and 382.5 total yards per game. The Giants' pass offense (218.14 yards/game) will test the Vikings' pass defense (180.36 yards allowed/game), while their run game will face a solid Vikings run defense that allows only 127.57 yards per game.

The betting odds favor the Minnesota Vikings as -2.5 point favorites with a total points line set at 43. The Vikings' strong pass protection will be tested against the Giants' pass rush. Bettors should consider the Vikings' recent form, including a 34-26 win over the Dallas Cowboys, and the Giants' struggles, as well as the impact of injuries on both sides.
