The Minnesota Vikings are looking to build on their week-four win over the Texans tonight when they face the Seattle Seahawks at CenturyLink Field.

Tonight's game in Seattle will be played at an empty stadium due to coronavirus restrictions. The Vikings have announced that next Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons at U.S. Bank Stadium will also be fan-less.

The Seahawks lead the all-time series against the Vikings with a 12-5 record. Seattle has defeated Minnesota in the last six meetings, including the NFC Wildcard game at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis on January 10th, 2016. It's been eleven years since the Vikings last beat the Seahawks.

Last Sunday the Vikings earned their first win of the season, by the topping the Texans in Houston 31-23. The Seahawks beat the Dolphins in Miami by that same 31-23 score.

For the Seahawks, safety Jamal Adams is listed as 'out.' Linebacker Jordyn Brooks, cornerback Quinton Dunbar, safety Lano Hill, running back Carlos Hyde, and offensive lineman Mike Iupati are all listed as 'questionable.'
