The Green Bay Packers (13-4) will host the San Francisco 49ers (11-7) in the NFC Divisional Round at Lambeau Field on Saturday night.
The Packers had a first-round bye as the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs, while the sixth-seeded 49ers advanced by upsetting the third-seeded Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium during the wild-card round.
The Packers previously beat the 49ers this season, using a late drive engineered by Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams to set up Mason Crosby’s game-winning 51-yard field goal as time expired in Santa Clara in Week 3.
With a win on Saturday night, the Packers would advance to the NFC Championship Game for the third straight season. No team since the 49ers in 2011-13 has been to three-straight NFC title games. This 49ers team is attempting to get back to the NFC Championship Game for the first time since beating the Packers there in 2019.
