EAGAN, Minn. — An old division rivalry will be renewed Sunday night with first place on the line.

The Vikings and Bears will meet for the first time in the 2018 season, with the NFC North clash taking place in Chicago on Sunday Night Football. Kickoff is set for 7:20 p.m. from Soldier Field.

Minnesota is 5-3-1 (1-0-1 in division play) and resides in second place in the NFC North after having a bye in Week 10.

The Bears topped the Lions in Week 10 for Chicago's third straight win. The Bears are alone in first place in the NFC North at 6-3 (1-1 in division play).

Here's a look at 10 numbers of note heading into Sunday's matchup:

8 — Adam Thielen already has eight 100-yard games in 2018, which matches Hall of Famer Randy Moss for the most such games by a Viking in a single season. Moss had eight 100-yard games in the 2000 and 2003 seasons.
