When the Lions host the Packers in Week 9, both clubs will be seeking to end long losing streaks.
Green Bay started the season 3-1 but has lost four consecutive games. Despite losing, 27-17, on Sunday Night Football to the Bills, the Packers snapped a four-game losing skid against the spread (ATS) by covering as 11-point road underdogs.
On Sunday, Aaron Rodgers and the Packers encounter a Lions squad that has failed to live up to preseason hype, dropping five straight games. Detroit began the season 4-0 ATS but has burned its backers with a 0-4 ATS skid since the hot start.
After sweeping the season series in 2017 and 2018 (4-0 straight-up), the Lions have lost five of the last six meetings against the Packers. However, Detroit has posted a highly lucrative 8-2 ATS mark over that span.

Odds and Betting Insights
With D’Andre Swift now healthy, the Lions now possess a solid one-two punch with Jamaal Williams. The two backs, who combined for three touchdowns last week against the Dolphins, find a very favorable matchup against a Green Bay defense that is surrendering the fourth-most rushing yards (141.3) per game.
As bad as Green Bay has played, losing four consecutive games, Rodgers has posted a solid 7:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio over that span. The veteran signal-caller has been much maligned this season but should find success against a Lions’ secondary allowing the sixth-most passing yards (266.4).
Despite a solid showing against the Bills, early wagering has strongly backed the Lions. Detroit opened as 3.5-point home underdog but has lost the ‘hook and is now only getting a field goal from oddsmakers.
