NFL – Green Bay Packers vs Arizona Cardinals

Sunday 17 January, 11.15 am, University of Phoenix Stadium 

Weather Partly Cloudy 15 Degrees– Indoor / outdoor stadium

Game rating – Packers 23 v Cardinals 29

The Packers were back to their playoff best last week, dismantling the Redskins with ease (35-18) but they now must travel again to take on a most formidable opponent in the Arizona Cardinals.  They met back in week 16 at this venue with the Cardinals crunching the Packers (8-38).  This is looming as a battle of the quarterbacks with Aaron Rogers coming off his brilliant game last week and the inform Carson Palmer who has never won a playoff game.

Prediction

With grave injury concerns for star WR Davante Adams after injuring his knee last week against the Redskins this is another of the Divisional finals that will favour the home side, coming off the bye.  The Cardinals have been resting players for weeks now and come into this match in good shape.  Expecting the Cardinals to add to their home ground record of 13-3 and defeat the Packers.

Suggested Bets

Arizona Cardinals to win at $1.32 and cover the -7 spread at $1.90.
