The 49ers are headed back to the NFC championship for the first time since 2014, when they went for a third-consecutive time. It’ll be their first NFC championship game at home since 2012 when they fell to the New York Giants at Candlestick Park.

San Francisco doesn’t know their opponent just yet. They await Sunday’s NFC divisional round game between the Seahawks and Packers. The 49ers went 1-1 vs. Seattle this season with a loss at home in Week 10 and a thrilling win in Seattle in Week 17. San Francisco thumped the Packers 37-8 at home in Week 12.
