Oddsmakers from online sportsbook Sportsbook.com currently have the Packers as a 3.5-point favorite against the Bears on Sunday. The over/under total has been set at 43 points. (View Matchup)
Opening odds had the Packers as a 3-point favorite since the matchup developed. Despite being the road team and losing at Chicago already this season, the dominance Green Bay has shown in two playoff games have made oddsmakers jump on their bandwagon.
The spread held at 3 points early on before moving up to 3.5 points, where it has remained for the rest of the week. The hook is a big addition as you could have at least earned a push with a late field-goal victory.
A few sportsbooks have Green Bay listed at -3, but the wagering odds are a little higher, while a few also have the Packers at -4, so if you like the Bears, be sure to shop around for the best odds.
In terms of the over/under total, that opened at 44 points and has slowly worked its way down to 43. With two strong defenses squaring off in poor conditions, many feel the point total will be low, which is why it has dropped a point during the week.
