Two teams with rich playoff histories will face each other on Saturday night when the Green Bay Packers travel to Santa Clara, California to face the San Francisco 49ers at Levi’s Stadium with the game scheduled to start at 8:15 PM ET and will air on Fox.

The Green Bay Packers became the first 7 seed to win a playoff game and were also the youngest team in NFL history to win a playoff game by upsetting the Dallas Cowboys on the road in the Wild Card round by a score of 48-32 and a game that they controlled from start to finish and handed the Cowboys their first home loss of the season. Jordan Love was nearly perfect in his first playoff game as he completed 16 of 21 attempts for 272 yards and three touchdowns while Romeo Doubs had six receptions for 151 yards and a touchdown.

The 49ers enter this game averaging the 2nd most points per game with an average of 28.88 points per game while allowing the 3rd fewest with an average of 17.53 points per game.
