Bears vs Lions Predictions: What To Expect
Given that the Bears have been unable to find their rhythm and are coming off an eight-game losing streak, it is not easy to predict a win for them. The Lions are supposed to win this game, and the predicted score is Lions 27, Bears 20. Although they almost pulled off a comeback in their Thanksgiving game against Detroit, where they were showing some flashes of promise, the Bears have not done much since the dismissal of head coach Matt Eberflus.
The only hard thing in this one for the Lions is seeing another win through the season; that is tough. Therefore, this is a crucial game for them in a quest to secure a playoff spot.
The last weeks of the season will surely be the games where the Bears are keenly watched; this time for finishing in good terms and in their own soil before their fans at Soldier Field.
