Preview:
The NFL wasted no time flexing this game to primetime after it was originally scheduled for an afternoon kickoff, and it makes perfect sense.
This could turn out to be a potential NFC Championship Game preview between two of the top teams from the conference. And despite what the odds might suggest, this game should turn out to be very, very close.
The Packers head West fresh from a bye week at 8-2. It took all four quarters for Green Bay to dispose of the Panthers a fortnight ago, but like the defence has been doing all year, the Packers walked away with a win thanks to a gritty red zone stand.
San Francisco also had to dig deep last week in their come from behind win over the Cardinals. The Niners trailed 16-10 at half time before pulling out a 36-26 win, but if you caught a glimpse of the game, you’ll know Jimmy Garoppolo didn’t look so good throwing a pair of picks.
The Packers have won six of their last 10-games over the Niners, but as far as recent history goes, San Francisco has caused Green Bay plenty of heartache in the past.
Only five years ago this was considered a serious NFC rivalry as the two teams met in the playoffs in 2013 and 2014. There’s no love lost, so the question becomes… who will win?
Green Bay’s demise on defence is cause for concern, but the Packers still rank sixth in turnovers. Mike Pettine’s men continue to create takeaways at opportune times, which only spells further trouble for Garoppolo, who made two horrendous throws last week in the red zone.
The Packers have shown they can give up large chunks of yards but still knuckle down to allow minimal points. Well-rested and with a point to prove, take Green Bay to keep this close.

Tip: Green Bay Packers at $2.46
Value Tip: First Try Scorer: Davante Adams at $12.00
