The San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams are quite familiar with one another. As NFC West rivals, the two teams have faced off twice a year since 1950. Sunday's meeting, though, will have a trip t Super Bowl LVI on the line.
San Francisco has won six straight against the Rams. While L.A. hasn't beaten its bitter rival since the 2018 season, the Rams' odds aren't as bad as one might think.
Since the 1970 merger, teams that have swept their division rival in the regular season have gone 14-8 in postseason meetings. However, this marks only the fifth time in which the regular-season-winner is on the road for Round 3, and in the previous four, the road teams are 2-2.
