What are the three keys to victory for the Green Bay Packers in Week 13?

Last week’s loss aside, the Green Bay Packers still find themselves in a strong position, leading the NFC North and able to secure the division title by winning out. They might not even need to do so depending on other results with the Minnesota Vikings. The next challenge for Matt LaFleur’s team is a trip to MetLife Stadium against the New York Giants.

It’s quite the contrast from last week. Instead of facing a team that had only lost once all season, the Packers now take on the team with the second-worst record in the NFC and a losing streak of seven, the second-longest in the league.

LaFleur won’t be taking anything for granted, though. While this is a game the Packers will be expected to win, the moment they believe that, they’re in trouble. They’ll need to play well to avoid slipping up and opening the door for the Vikings to move into first place of the division on Monday night at CenturyLink Field.

Considering Minnesota’s tough matchup against the Seattle Seahawks this week, there’s an opportunity to reestablish a one-game advantage at the top.

But the Packers must win for that to happen. Here are three keys to getting the win at MetLife Stadium.
