Teams News & Injury Reports
Raiders Team News
There are some big names on the Raiders final injury report ahead of this Monday Night Football game.
Chief among them is superstar WR Davante Adams (shoulder) who is listed as questionable. Adams is expected to play despite not practicing on Thursday or Friday and only being a limited participant in Saturday’s practice. It will be interesting to see if Adams is on a snap count as he battles through his shoulder injury.
QB Jimmy Garoppolo (concussion) missed last week’s loss to the Chargers but will return for this game after clearing the NFL’s concussion protocol.
Turning to the defensive side of the ball, star DE Maxx Crosby (knee) was another big name on the injury report for Las Vegas. Crosby was a limited participant in practice all week but he is also expected to suit up Monday night in a crucial game for the Raiders.
Starting CB Nate Hobbs (ankle) will miss this game. Second string CB David Long is listed as questionable and likely won’t be 100% if he does play so Las Vegas could be a little thin in the secondary for this game.
Packers Team News
Green Bay has been struggling with injuries early this season but there are some positives going into this game.
Star CB Jaire Alexander (back) is listed as questionable but is expected to return for this game which is good news for a Green Bay secondary which struggled against the Lions last Thursday night. CB Eric Stokes remains on the PUP list so won’t make his return tonight. Starting S Rudy Ford (oblique) is also questionable to play.
Sticking with defense, LB De’Vondre Campbell (ankle) will be inactive again after picking up that ankle injury in week 3 against the Saints.
On offense, star RB Aaron Jones (hamstring) is listed as questionable but is expected to miss this game which will be a blow to the Packers both on the ground and through the air such is the dynamism of Jones.

Raiders vs Packers Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: Las Vegas Raiders 30 Green Bay Packers 26
I’m predicting that the Las Vegas Raiders will win and cover at home here to get their season back on track after a 1-3 start.
Green Bay should have some success on offense but I don’t think Jordan Love and co. will be able to keep up with this Raiders offense which could be due for a breakout game here as starting QB Jimmy Garoppolo returns to the lineup.
Best Bet: Over 45 -110
Remember to always gamble responsibly.
