Bears vs. Packers Prediction:
Take the Packers to cover the 9.5 point spread at home on Sunday afternoon. They are still battling for seeding in the playoffs and will look to pick up a big win here. The Packers have the 6th ranked defense in the league and are 7th in sacks per game. They will be going up against an offense that allows the most sacks per game. The Bears defense hasn’t played well giving up 30+ points in 3 of the last 4 games. I imagine they will be more motivated to get this game and this season over with than they would be to put on a good performance especially on the road at Lambeau Field. The Packers also want to head into the playoffs on a positive note so I think they will pick up a big win on Sunday.
Bears vs. Packers Prediction: Packers -9.5
