The Green Bay Packers are on course for a third consecutive victory having gone into the break of their NFC North clash against the Minnesota Vikings with a 14-10 lead.

The deadlock was not broken until the final two minutes of the opening quarter, and it was the Packers who struck first as Eddie Lacy leapt over from a yard out to maintain his record of scoring in every match he has played against the Vikings.

Minnesota responded early in the second quarter to level things up once again, Teddy Bridgewater floating a 22-yard pass over to a wide-open Charles Johnson inside the endzone.

However, Green Bay were back ahead soon enough when Aaron Rodgers peeled off to his right before firing a pass across the field for a wide-open Richard Rodgers to complete a one-yard score.

Blair Walsh added a late field goal for the Vikings to reduce the deficit to four points, which is how it stayed going into the break.
