NFL · 2026 Season · Odds via DraftKings
As of now, this game hasn't started yet. It's scheduled for 9/27 - 4:05 PM EDT at Raymond James Stadium. Check back once the game is underway for live score updates.
Heading into this NFL matchup, DraftKings lists the Minnesota Vikings as the favorite at MIN -1.5, with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers sitting as the underdog on the moneyline. The point spread currently sits at 1.5, and the over/under total for the game is set at 42.5, giving an early read on how competitive, and how high-scoring, oddsmakers expect this game to be.
Season-series history between the Minnesota Vikings and Tampa Bay Buccaneers isn't available for this matchup yet, so there's no head-to-head trend to lean on heading into game day.
Interestingly, the betting market and ESPN's statistical Matchup Predictor are in agreement here, both point to the Minnesota Vikings as the side more likely to come out on top, with the model putting their win probability at 54%. When the numbers and the odds line up this closely, it's usually a sign the gap between these two teams is real, not just a betting-market quirk.
That betting line lines up with what the standings show. The Minnesota Vikings currently carry a 1.000 win percentage on the season, compared to .000 for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Whether that gap on paper translates to the scoreboard is a different question entirely, standings measure a whole season, while a single game can turn on one swing, one drive, or one bad quarter.
Betting lines, like win probabilities, are a snapshot, not a forecast set in stone, and they can shift right up until the 9/27 - 4:05 PM EDT start time as injury news, weather, and public money move the market. This page will keep reflecting the latest numbers as they update, so it's worth a final check before Minnesota Vikings and Tampa Bay Buccaneers actually take the field.
