Game preview

Green Bay and Dallas should be reasonably content with three wins from their opening four matches, even though they head into their clash at Arlington following defeats last time out.

Questions surround Dallas's ability to maintain their push as their three victories have come against the Giants, Miami and Washington, so much tougher assignments are around the corner.

They also need to regroup having seen their offence stifled last week in their 12-10 reverse against New Orleans.

The Packers' unbeaten campaign ended when they were sunk by Philadelphia last week, allowing 34 points to the Eagles when they had conceded just 35 in their previous three outings.

The concern for the Wisconsin outfit has been their run defence and they could be severely tested once again as they hunt for only their third away win in their last 12 attempts.

Green Bay have allowed an average of 142.5 rushing yards per game – the seventh worst in the league – and they face a difficult evening against Ezekiel Elliott.

The Dallas running back was restricted to just 35 yards against the Saints last week, but he should bounce back, having reached three figures in the wins against Miami and Washington.
