There are some good key matchups Sunday for the Houston Texans and Minnesota Vikings.

Since this is Week 4 of the 2020 NFL season, that means for the Houston Texans they will be hosting the Minnesota Vikings in their second home game at NRG Stadium this season.

The Texans didn’t win on their home field in their one game there back in Week 2, but this is a much better opportunity for a win by facing the Minnesota Vikings, rather than the Week 2 opponent, which was the Baltimore Ravens.

Looking at the Vikings’ roster, they do bring some talented players to the field, and just like the Houston Texans, Minnesota is 0-3 entering the game, and they too are looking to earn their first win of the season.

It is tough to tell what this game will bring for the Texans because the offense this season has been off their game, to say the least. They haven’t been on the field long enough to gain much success for most of the season, leading to the defense being on the field too much.

Minnesota is having the same sort of issues with their offense being on the field less than the Houston Texans offense, which leads one to wonder: what exactly is going to give this week? Whose offense can finally break the poor pattern of play and put together successful drives on a consistent basis?

That brings us to the following part of the Week 4 game which will be of great importance, and that is what are some of the key matchups between the Texans and the Vikings?

Next is a look at three matchups that should take place this Sunday, which will be a key to victory for either the Houston Texans or the Minnesota Vikings, depending on who wins the matchup.
