In Week 7, “Monday Night Football” will be played in the United States. Bank Stadium when the Minnesota Vikings (2-4) host the San Francisco 49ers (5-1).
It was a great start to the season for San Francisco, but their run to perfection ended with a narrow loss to the Cleveland Browns. There were all kinds of mistakes that doomed the 49ers, but injuries to weapons like Deebo Samuel and Christian McCaffrey could raise concerns about what has been accomplished.
Without star receiver Justin Jefferson, the Vikings managed to avoid the bottom of the NFC North by holding off the Chicago Bears 19-13 on the road. There has been a lot of talk about trading Kirk Cousins, but with a big win against a Super Bowl contender, that could be delayed. Vikings vs. 49ers odds, cap, over/under

Lorenzo Reyes: 49ers 33, Vikings 20
Be sure to wait closer to game time for updates on injuries to 49ers stars Deebo Samuel, Christian McCaffrey and Trent Williams, but I think this is a great place for San Francisco to bounce back. The Vikings, on the other hand, were incredible against a weak Bears team.
Tyler Dragon: 49ers 28, Vikings 13
The 49ers are expected to bounce back from a surprising loss to the Browns in Week 6. Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel and Trent Williams are battling injuries. But the 49ers still have enough talent to beat a struggling Vikings team without Justin Jefferson. Minnesota has a league-worst 13 awards. Safid Deen: 49ers 27, Vikings 17
It would have been a better Monday night game if not for the injuries. Running back Christian McCaffrey (oblique/rib), Deebo Samuel (shoulder) and left tackle Trent Williams (right ankle) all appear to miss this game, which would be better for San Francisco’s potential Super Bowl run. The Vikings weren’t doing well before the injury to star receiver Justin Jefferson, and they’re not doing any better with a 49ers team significantly loaded behind injured stars.
Victoria Hernandez: 49ers 24, Vikings 19
Christian McCaffery’s hitting streak could be over after he injured his oblique last week and is a question mark for this game along with Deebo Samuel and Trent Williams. For the Vikings, TJ Hockenson has stepped up in Justin Jefferson’s absence, as he should with the money he’s making. Finally, Brock Purdy will have more tools at his disposal and a strong defense to support.
Jordan Mendoza: 49ers 22, Vikings 13
All eyes will be on whether Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel can suit up for San Francisco, as the offense was without key players in its first loss of the season. But even when they don’t, the 49ers’ defense creates plays against Minnesota’s offense that are nothing short of impressive.
