Green Bay Packers vs San Francisco 49ers is one of the big afternoon games in the NFL 2013 Week 1 schedule with the 49ers looking to maintain their good recent record against the Packers.

The game is scheduled to start at 4.25 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on Fox, or alternatively can be watched online via live stream on the NFL Sunday Ticket through the link provided below.

The Packers travel to San Francisco desperate to improve on their recent form against the 49ers. They lost to the 49ers twice last season and know they need to break that losing streak today if they are to get their season off to the best start.

This is also the second straight year that these two teams have faced off on the opening day of the season. However, this season the game will be taking place at Candlestick Park in San Francisco which will give the 49ers the edge.

The 49ers won last year's opener, 30-22, with Alex Smith starting at quarterback and Michael Crabtree posting an impressive 76 receiving yards.

The 49ers also went on to beat Green Bay in the divisional round of the playoffs later that season, winning 45-31.

The 49ers made it to the NFC Championship in Jim Harbaugh's first season as head coach, and then made it to the Super Bowl last year. They have made huge strides forward each year, and if they make more progress this season then it would take a brave person to write them off for the Super Bowl. 49ers fans will be optimistic heading into the season and will have high expectations at what their team can achieve this season.
