The Oakland Raiders (4-5) are set to visit upset-minded team Detroit Lions (2-7) at the Ford Field on Sunday, November 22 for a Week 11 match in the 2015 NFL season.
Oakland dropped its fifth game of the season with a lopsided 30-14 loss to the Minnesota Vikings at the O.co Coliseum last Sunday, as per CBS Local Minnesota.
Former league MVP Adrian Peterson had 26 carries and rushed for 203 yards with a touchdown to help defeat the Raiders in their home stadium.
Raiders quarterback Derek Carr had a decent night, throwing 29-of-43 for 302 yards with two touchdowns, but he also had two interceptions and two sacks to end up with a 42.0 QBR and 83.7 rating.
The Lions are the talk of the town lately as they handed reeling powerhouse Green Bay Packers their third straight loss of the season with an 18-16 escape at the Lambeau Field also last Sunday, via Yahoo Sports.
It was Detroit's first win at the Lambeau Field in 24 years as it also stopped their losing skid to two games.
While Jim Caldwell's boys are definitely motivated after such a huge win, they are predicted to fall short once more against the Raiders in their home field on Sunday.
Prediction: Raiders win, 24-17.
