<p>Things looked grim for the Vikings in Week 3 before a fourth-quarter comeback helped them defeat the Detroit Lions, 28-24. It wasn’t all good news for Minnesota, though, as starting running back Dalvin Cook <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/34664297/minnesota-vikings-lose-dalvin-cook-shoulder-injury-vs-detroit-lions" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">dislocated his shoulder in the victory</a>, making him day-to-day going forward. </p>
<p>Meanwhile, the Saints have now dropped back-to-back losses following their 22-14 loss to the Carolina Panthers. There wasn’t too much for New Orleans fans to cheer about aside from rookie wideout Chris Olave turning nine receptions into 147 yards. </p>

<p><strong>Vikings vs Saints Prediction:</strong> Vikings 23, Saints 19</p>
<p><strong>Vikings vs Saints Picks:</strong> Vikings -2.5 (Best Value: -110 at <a href="https://affiliates.bettingnews.com/register/betonline/">BetOnline</a>) &amp; Under 43 Points (Best Value: -110 at BetOnline)</p>
<p>Whenever an NFL game takes place in London, it can be tough to predict. The atmosphere is different, players are dealing with the time change and there’s no telling what’ll happen on a field that traditionally isn’t used for American football.</p>
<p>Having said that, it’s still hard to trust the Saints this week. While losing to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is acceptable, there’s no excuse for how bad New Orleans looked at times against Carolina last week. </p>
<p>For starters, the Saints didn’t score a single point on the Panthers until the fourth quarter. That strategy won’t work against a Vikings team that has playmakers like Justin Jefferson, Adam Thielen and, potentially, Cook. </p>
<p>Even if Minnesota’s lead rusher doesn’t play, Alexander Mattison is one of the best backup RBs in the league and won’t miss a beat.  </p>

<p>Cook has an unrepaired labral tear and wasn&#39;t wearing a harness. As <a href="https://twitter.com/ProFootballTalk?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@ProFootballTalk</a> said, the hope is Cook will harness up and play next Sunday vs. the <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Saints?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Saints</a>.</p>

<p>The Saints have also been turnover prone this season. They currently lead the NFL with nine turnovers through three games, composed of five interceptions thrown by Jameis Winston and four fumbles lost by other players. </p>
<p>Fortunately for the Vikings, they’re tied for the 12th-most takeaways this season with four thus far. The play can be sloppy in London at times and Minnesota’s defense needs to be ready to take advantage of New Orleans’ mistake-prone offense when possible. </p>
<p>Three of the Saints’ top receivers — Tre’Quan Smith, Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry — are all question for Sunday’s game. Those statuses could change as the week goes on, but missing any of these players would hurt an aerial offense that’s averaging the eighth-most passing yards (261.3) in the league. </p>
<p>At the end of the day, the Saints still have a lot to prove for bettors to trust them. A loss to the Panthers did anything but that, while the Vikings have already scored wins over solid teams like the Lions and Green Bay Packers. </p>
<p>I do expect this to be a back-and-forth game due to the unpredictability that London games bring. Having said that, the Vikings should be able to cover the 2.5-point spread as long as the Saints struggle with turnovers and generating offense at the right time. </p>
<p>I’m also siding with the under on the total. Again, overseas contests can bring unpredictable results and with how banged up both rosters potentially are, I could see this game ending up with a lower final score. </p>
