The Vikings are coming off a close win against the Bears in their first game without star receiver Justin Jefferson who is still out with a hamstring injury. While the 49ers are coming off their first loss of the season last week against the Browns. Deebo Samuel will be out for a few weeks with a shoulder injury.
Kirk Cousin will be in constant distress this week going up against the 49ers tough defense. In last weeks win against the Bears Kirk passed for one touchdown with 181 yards and fumbled twice. Kirk will have to play a perfect game if he and the Vikings want to stay in this game.
Brock Purdy suffered his first loss as a starter in the NFL last week in a nail biting game to the Browns, he only passed for 125 yards with one touchdown and one interception and fumbled once. If the 49ers can continue their strong defensive scheme the Vikings should struggle early on and give them the advantage to run up the score.
Score Prediction: Vikings 17 – 49ers 38
