Today's NFC Wild Card match up is a huge one; the San Francisco 49ers go on the road to face the Green Bay Packers in arguably the game of the Wild Card round. This game promises to be a classic with a rivalry as big as any in the NFC between these two teams.

Today's game will start at 4.40 p.m. EST and will be broadcast on TV on the Fox network. Alternatively the game will be broadcast online through live stream via the link provided below.

These two teams competed in a classic rivalry in the 1990s and they will renew hostilities today in a mouth-watering match up.

From 1996 to 1999 these two teams faced off six times over three years, with four of those games coming in the postseason. The Packers won five of those six games, with the 49ers only managing to take one of them. In the postseason, the Packers record was 3-1.

However, over recent times the rivalry has leaned more towards the 49ers side, and the Packers will be desperate to notch up another win against their fierce foes and progress to the next round of the Playoffs.

The 49ers will be confident coming into today's game; they have won the last three match ups between these two teams.

Green Bay suffered some spotty form during the regular season and finished with an 8-7-1 record. Whether today's game will be close or not could depend on which Packers' team turns up. The 49ers meanwhile had a reasonable 12-4 season and were generally much more consistent than their rivals today.

The weather could play an important part in today's game, and it is expected that Lambeau Field will be frozen over, and the teams could have to compete with freezing temperatures.

Expect high drama from this one.
