Rushing: Each team was missing its top running back in the most-recent games.
Dalvin Cook did not play in Week 6 with a groin injury, and his status for Sunday will be determined as the week goes.
Cook ranks fifth in the NFL with 489 rushing yards and is tied for the league lead with seven rushing touchdowns. Alexander Mattison has 245 rushing yards and a score.
That duo has helped Minnesota rank sixth in the league at 139.2 rushing yards per game. Green Bay is 10th at 132.2 rushing yards per game.
Packers running back Aaron Jones has 389 yards and five scores, but he did not play in Week 7 due to a calf injury.
Jamaal Williams had 77 yards and a score in Jones' place against the Texans.
Receiving: The Vikings once again have one of the top receiving duos in the league, as Adam Thielen and Justin Jefferson have both performed well through six games.
Thielen is tied for the league lead with seven touchdown catches and has 415 yards on a team-high 32 receptions.
Jefferson, a first-round pick in 2020, ranks 10th in the league with 537 receiving yards. He has 28 receptions (19.2 yards per catch) with a trio of touchdowns.
Tight ends Kyle Rudolph (123 yards and a score) and Irv Smith, Jr., (133 yards) both have 10 receptions in 2020.
Packers wide receiver Davante Adams dominated against the Vikings in the season opener, hauling in 14 receptions for 156 yards and two scores. Adams has a team-high 36 catches for 449 yards and four scores.
Tight end Robert Tonyan leads Green Bay with five touchdown catches, while Jones and Allen Lazard have two apiece.
