NFL Week 4 Pittsburgh Steelers vs Minnesota Vikings Preview, Prediction and Betting Odds for 2025-26 NFL Season

Pittsburgh Steelers vs Minnesota Vikings Preview, Prediction and Betting Odds – Week 4 2025-26 NFL Season

The Minnesota Vikings are travelling alongside Pittsburgh Steelers to play in Dublin, Ireland, for an international Week 4 showdown on September 28, 2025. Both teams are 2-1 currently and are coming in after wins against their respective opponents. In the Vikings last game, despite missing their QB1 JJ McCarthy, it did not seem to bother them as much as they destroyed the Cincinnati Bengals who were also missing their QB1 in Joe Burrow. Meanwhile, the Steelers are coming off a great win against the New England Patriots despite Drake Maye’s strong performance in the game.

With Rodgers leading the Steelers to a 2-1 record so far, we wonder if the Steelers can push their season to a 3-1 start, going against a injury riddled Vikings team.

Rationale and Analysis

Jordan Mason exploded for 116 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns in the game against the Bengals. Going up against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mason has a great chance to explode yet again, as the Steelers are horrible defensively, ranking 28th in total defense, and 26th in rushing defense, allowing 4 rushing TDs in three weeks. Looking at this, we can confidently say that Mason is bound to score at least one rushing TD today.

Looking at the Steelers’ defense, which ranks 26th in the league, and the fact that Carson Wentz went off in his first start of the 2025 season last game against the Bengals, we believe that the Vikings will look for him to provide the offense that they need, especially since they have arguably the best wide receiver in the game currently in Justin Jefferson.

Both Vikings and Steelers are amongst the bottom teams in terms of total offense rankings, with the Vikings holding the 28th spot and the Steelers holding the 30th. In terms of passing offense, the Vikings rank the third worst in the league at 30th, meanwhile the Steelers are only a couple of spots above at 24th. Both these teams have struggled to score the ball, despite the Vikings’ performance against the Bengals. So therefore it is same to assume that total TDs for this game will be below 4.5.

Steelers vs Vikings Preview

The Pittsburgh Steelers (2-1) host the Minnesota Vikings (2-1) at Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland, for an international Week 4 showdown. Aaron Rodgers seeks rhythm against Brian Flores’ blitz-heavy defense, while the Steelers’ will try to win the game using DK Metcalf’s speed and agility.

The Vikings are currently missing their QB1 in JJ McCarthy, but despite the loss, they still went on to dominate the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 3, putting on a dominant show and handing the Bengals their worst loss in franchise history. Meanwhile, the Steelers are coming off a win as well, after a tough battle against the Patriots in Week 3.

Week 4 Steelers vs Vikings Predictions

We expect the Pittsburgh Steelers to win this contest in Dublin because their defense, despite ranking low amongst other teams, can put a stop to Carson Wentz’ occasional rust and Minnesota’s turnover-prone tendencies. Aaron Rodgers, despite an okay start to this season, thrives in low-scoring affairs and may have the upper hand in this contest.

We expect a low-scoring thriller contest, with the Steelers coming out on top.

Prediction: Steelers win the game 20-17

I cover the National Football League and things cannot get better than that. I always dreamed to play football or basketball professionally since I’m built like a Running Back. But now that I can’t, since I’m technically in the “Unc” age, I thought why not pick a career in sports industry? So here I am, doing what I love, and hoping that the Commanders win the Super Bowl. I give love to players when it’s due, but can be critical about their performances at the same time. Enough about me, now let my articles do all the talking.
