LAS VEGAS - The Minnesota Vikings and the New Orleans Saints are set to face off in the late set of games on Sunday.

The game features the Saints looking to lock up the division, which they can do with a win and a Buccaneers loss. The Vikings, meanwhile, are playing for pride at this point, and looking to see if they can knock off one of the top teams in the NFC.

Minnesota Vikings vs. New Orleans Saints

  • Minnesota Vikings +7.0 (-105)
  • New Orleans Saints -7.0 (-115)

The Vikings are underdogs by seven points on the spread, which means that this is a line that is ripe for line shopping.

Saints bettors will want to try to find this at Saints -6.5, while Vikings bettors will want to look for Vikings +7.5

That extra half point either way could define the game in terms of winning your wagers if the game ends in a touchdown victory for the Saints.

As an example of this, let’s look at the odds from Bovada, BetOnline and MyBookie.

Minnesota Vikings vs. New Orleans Saints - Bovada:

  • Minnesota Vikings +7.0 (-105)
  • New Orleans Saints -7.0 (-115)

  • New Orleans Saints -7.5 (+105)

Minnesota Vikings vs. New Orleans Saints - MyBookie:

  • New Orleans Saints -7.0 (-115)

These are all mostly in the same range, although the BetOnline odds have the Saints as a 7.5-point favorite.

The MyBookie and Bovada odds are identical at the time of writing.

The real choice is between those odds and the odds offered at BetOnline, which effectively is buying the hook at a cheap price.

A bettor will end up paying an extra 20 points on their bet to take the Vikings at +7.5 by using this line shopping method, which is generally cheaper than actually buying the hook.

Now, let’s take a look at the moneyline odds from Bovada, BetOnline and MyBookie and see if there are any actionable differences.

The best NFL odds for those who want to wager on the Saints will be found at MyBookie or BetOnline, who offer the Saints at -330. Meanwhile, Vikings bettors will want to stick to Bovada and BetOnline, where the Vikings are +275 underdogs.

NFL bettors should understand the value of line shopping by this point, but just in case anyone didn’t, edges like this are invaluable.
