Get our early Packers vs. Lions predictions ahead of their Thanksgiving Day showdown on Thursday, November 27, 2025. Free NFL picks for Week 13.
The Packers and Lions bring similar records into their Turkey Day tilt, but our NFL betting picks believe Detroit brings superior quality to the table.The Week 13 slate opens with an NFC North showdown between the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions at Ford Field on Thursday, November 27.
Here are our early thoughts on the spread and total for this week’s game. We will have a full game preview later in the week.Detroit has averaged 34.7 points per home game while going 11-3 at Ford Field since the beginning of last season, and there’s a notable disparity in the strength of schedules the Lions and Packers have faced through 12 weeks.While I’m anticipating a close contest to open Week 13, the Lions are better on both sides of the ball by DVOA, and Green Bay has only covered the spread in two of its past nine games, in addition to just one of the past seven on the highway.With the highlighted strength of the Detroit offense at Ford Field pairing with a well-rounded Green Bay attack, this game is set to see ample scoring to go Over the number. The Packers have averaged 32.3 points across their past four road games and ranked eighth in offensive DVOA ahead of Week 12. Quarterback Jordan Love has also impressed while pacing the league in adjusted EPA per play and ranking fourth in PFF passing grade. Of course, Detroit QB Jared Goff has thrown for the second-most touchdown passes, and the Over has hit in nine of Detroit’s past 13 home games.: Our team of experts has thoroughly researched and handpicked each product that appears on our website.
