Game Preview

For the second NFL week in a row, the New York Giants are on primetime TV.

This week, they’ll be hoping for a better outcome.

New York visits Lambeau Field for a matchup against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday Night Football, a week after falling 24-10 to the Vikings in Minnesota.

Tonight’s kickoff is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. ET and will be televised by NBC.

In the game against the Vikings, Odell Beckham Jr. totaled a career-low 23 receiving yards (on 3 receptions) and picked up another unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. The Giants are hoping he and Eli Manning can take advantage of a banged-up Packers secondary early and often.

Green Bay is coming off a bye and will get a few starters back on defense, including Morgan Burnett, Clay Matthews and Datone Jones. All three missed Week 3’s game. Green Bay, though, will be without top cornerback Sam Shields, who is out again after suffering a concussion in the season-opener.

The Packers enter the game with a 2-1 record and 1-0 at Lambeau. The Giants are 2-2, including 1-1 on the road.
