This evening’s matchup will be the first of two NFC Division round games and the second of four divisional-round games in total, to be played today and tomorrow. The winner of each of the four games will advance to their conference championship game next week to determine the two teams, each to represent their conference in this year's Super Bowl. This evening’s game will feature the San Francisco 49ers, who will travel to Wisconsin this week, and the Green Bay Packers.
The Packers come into this week as the only team from the NFC with a bye week having earned the number one overall seed during the regular season.
